k smith I think there are a large number of rookie RBs who will be at least RB3 options this season. If you chase after WRs early or take a top QB in the first three rounds, chances are you'll be hoping one or more of these guys will be able to produce for you this season.

Can't believe all of these questions and the name CALVIN JOHNSON did't pop up. You are a bunch of sand baggers is what I think. How high will he start going? early 3rd round? late 2nd round? HE'S the biggest climber in the last 2 weeks imo.

Tom .... with all the data available today in fantasy sports, Has this created an Information Overload ? Guess what im getting at is, has it made it easier or harder to make decisions ?

Tom...I havent really read the forums here for the most part of this season...so I am not sure if this was ever asked...

In regard to LT2, in your opinion, is he still the can't miss fantasy team anchor as he has been over the past 3-4 seasons? Do you think that people still feel that the team with LT2 is the team to beat since everyone perceived him to be a fantasy overlord?

and finally, would u be happy to list your KDS starting with Pick #1 ?

I think it's done both. Certainly, there's no shortage of information so it's become more difficult to gain an advantage. But I think that's why it's become harder to make decisions. You can't count on knowing more than the people in your league. You have to assume they know everything you do - or least a large amount of it - because everyone has access to much of the same information. So the pressure has heightened to make sure you make the right decisions. The margin for error has shrunk considerably.

and finally, would u be happy to list your KDS starting with Pick #1 ? With regard to KDS I'd probably go with something like this for the NFFC:

1-6, 13-14, 10, 7-9, 10-11

I think LT remains the No. 1 player in fantasy but the time will come soon when he is supplanted. Adrian Peterson and Steven Jackson have the talent to do so but both have issues that would prevent me from ranking them No. 1 (even before Jackson's holdout). I just think that when you combine talent, situation, role in the offense and proven production it's hard to find someone else to take No.1 than LT.
