The Larry Johnson flex dilemna: believe Vermeil out of the gate, or wait for proof?

Lg1 - LJ or Toomer? Toomer
Lg2 - LJ or S Parker? LJ, so far...

FatPerez - I see you're rolling with him ahead of McCardell, tough call there too. Anyone else?

As a Holmes owner I'm enjoying this. In my league (LV7) my handcuff was taken with the second pick in the fourth round. Yet he isn't starting him.
58th player picked but not good enough to start.
Why would someone spend $1250 to pick L.Johnson in the 4th round is beyond me. But what the heck its his money.

I wouldn't believe Vermeil unless you see him weep.

I still like my chances better than taking a 40+ steroid-abusing OF in round 3 though.

[/QUOTE]yep, that's the downside, a weekly b*tch deciding who to start ... if I had any faith in Samie I think he'd be on the bench two times

Diesel,

The High Priest went for $66 in the Chicago auction.

Larry Johnson was the 4th nomination overall and he went for $17. I was 5th and nominated Priest.

And yes, the guy who spent $17 on LJ also bought Priest.

LT2 went for $71 in Chi... :confused:
