Buyer's Remorse Players

Post by williamhare » Fri Aug 20, 2010 2:20 am

From early (May) drafts here are four I wish I'd passed on:

- Ryan Grant. Non-descript plodder who is blessed to be on the Pack. At least I got Jahvid rounds later to back up this pack-mule.

-Knowshon Moreno. He is a Bronco and I selected him before the 5th round. My bad! Move all Den players back due to wacko coach who only wants to coach missionaries, boy scouts and choir boys. This team is on the clock for 2011 Draft.

-Matt Ryan. I must have thought the year was 2013 when I picked him... more of same from 2009 on way. Falcons refuse to get him a #2 Wide or allow him to toss it past the first down marker.

-Kenny Britt (Kenny Fatt)- Decent rookie campaign morphed into "I ain't working out" attitude. Left in the dust by Nate! Wow. Slacker mofo.

-The film "Going the Distance". Drew Barrymore finds the "Apple" of her eye, but alas gets transferred across country. Looks lame unless you like maple syrup on your frosted flakes. Trailer shouts to save your popcorn $$ for another occasion/a Bengals game.

Any other early drafters got regrets?

Robert Meachem in the 6th in a May draft. (Ouch)

Vincent Jackson in the 2nd of a magazine league.

Brandon Jacobs - what was I thinking?

Clinton Ports - I'm just guessing that I"m really going to regret taking him.

Knowshown Moreno in a couple drafts.

Kenny Britt in a couple drafts.

Robert Meachem.

Jerard Cook as a sleeper in a few drafts (like other sleeper tight ends better now).

Larry Fitzgerald in the first round of a couple drafts.

Felix Jones earlier than I would now.

Jerome Harrison in an early round back in January.

Worst pick - Ben Tate in a top 10 round in the Genesis draft two weeks after the NFL draft.

On the other hand, I like the value I got in earlier drafts on CJ Spiller, Arian Foster, Wes Welker, and others, so it works both ways.

Ug

Got Forte in all my home leagues 2 years ago (yea)

Didn't like him last year, reluctantly kept him (keeper leagues) for a ninth and 12th pick in two different leagues (never drafted him in any other leagues). Really didn't want to keep him for a ninth pick but was talked into it. Ug

VJAX and Santonio Holmes both on the same mag team. I think it was in may before both suspensions were known.

I talked myself into thinking that Ward was going to press Caddy for playing time. After Hamilton, he was my second favorite mid round rb to draft. I drafted him in my last 6 leagues. Nice.
