Hmmm.... 2nd year back with a productive rookie season set to falter next year....
Marshawyn Lynch?
Actually, he looks pretty solid this year. I really should watch college football so I would know what these kats were all about.

you know what would be good is for greg to get a video roundtable fantasy football discussion (on draft weekend) amongst some of the NFFC player, and put it up on his website. i for one would like to see how much knowledge some of these folks have when the lights are on

It's easy to say now with 20-20 hindsight that Walker was too risky to draft. And to those who avoided him, you definitely made the right call. However, I talked to people out in Denver frequently about him this summer and they all thought he was looking sensational in camp - even after the minor knee issue came up. And then he was an absolute monster in the first two games. Clearly, looking back now that was just false hope but all you can do at the time of your drafts is process the information you have and make your best judgment.
Based on all the info I had gathered, Javon Walker was poised for a huge year. Certainly, the first two games pointed him in that direction.
Injuries happen. It sucks but they happen. Rudi Johnson and Marvin Harrison never get hurt. Well look what's happened to them this season. Andre Johnson's season looks like it will mirror Walker's.
I commend the people who say they thought Walker was too risky and avoided him. But a lot of people - myself included - avoided Randy Moss because his risk factor was so high and that decision clearly hasn't panned out. Sometimes you make the right call and sometimes you don't. In my main league, I made the right call with Adrian Peterson, taking him at least a one round before his ADP said he should go. In four leagues - including all three of the leagues I really care about - I made the wrong call with Javon Walker.
S**t happens. Now it's onto Plan B with the hope that maybe that plan will provide enough production to win.
