Why does everyone assume the 3rd RB is a loser?
LOL - C. Martin 196 - 3 rec - 2 TDs. RB looks right to me.

Sure, CMart and Tiki went off this week, and maybe they will have outstanding seasons.
Just one question though: Those teams with CM and TB as their 3rd RB...who are your 1/2 receivers??

Please speak loudly so that everyone can hear.

Keyshwan – is there any doubt that he is a 15+ point a game guy?
Terrell – featured guy in Chicago at least 12+ a game
Roy Willimas – Good by Charlie, hello go-to-guy, 12+ a game

D. Patten – Good 4th RC, especially if NE continues to use a spread attack
T Pinkston – May play for me once
Hilliard – likely my cut to pick up a one-week start TE and K

Yea, C. Martin is my #3 guy. As I have stated numerous times there are plenty of breakthrough RC candidates available in rounds 7-11. The team that wins this thing will have 3 RB’s and a handful of RC’s that performed 3-4 rounds higher than projected.

nnoy...my $1000 to your $100 says Keyshawn doesn't average 15 pts/gm. And pelase don't tell me you're hanging your hopes on David "Bust" Terrell. Not asking for much - but please wait for just 2-3 respectable games in a row from him before the hype begins.

hotsauce...your 1 and 2 WRs scored 11.8 and 6.9 points respectfully, and you're actually proud of that? Interesting.

BTW, not busting on anyone's particular draft selections at the WR position - just making general observations.

Ico, I can't believe you started this nonsense. How about telling everyone how your Gekko Invitational team did this week because of your wr strategy. Your #5 pick is already out for the season and because you only have one starting rb, you're getting your butt kicked in Week 1.

The enforcing of the 5 yard rule may make wr's more valuable statwise by the end of the year but don't go picking 4 slug rb's stats to make your case. Jones was the only rb I remember in that group who was taken early and he's running behind last year's worst o-line for running the football. Anyone who drafted him thinking he was going to put up 20 points a week needed to be drug-tested. Over a 16 game season, the rb's will be more consistent, but the overall scoring for rb's and wr's will be close.

Tamu -- it was a joke. I posted two messages with the exact opposite messages at the exact same time.

This one, titled:

Proof that picking WRs is better and the RB people are wrong

and another one, titled:

But you are right, Charles Rogers injury certainly proves that drafting WRs is bad. I scored 105 points, despite being short one roster spot, and getting bupkus out of my #1 draft pick. Not such a disaster really.
