League drafting today (Sep. 11), rankings different?
Posted: Tue Sep 11, 2007 7:00 pm
Hi guys,
I'm totally new to fantasy football and the league that I'm in is drafting late, today, after week 1 has been completed. It's a default yahoo league.
I was just wondering if the pre-draft rankings that I've seen on the web, especially for Rounds 1 and Rounds 2, have changed a lot since week 1? I assume LT is still the consensus first pick.
Here is Yahoo's top 20, pre-week 1:
1 LaDainian Tomlinson, SD, RB
2 Steven Jackson, StL, RB
3 Larry Johnson, KC, RB
4 Joseph Addai, Ind, RB
5 Frank Gore, SF, RB
6 Shaun Alexander, Sea, RB
7 Rudi Johnson, Cin, RB
8 Brian Westbrook, Phi, RB
9 Laurence Maroney, NE, RB
10 Willie Parker, Pit, RB
11 Travis Henry, Den, RB
12 Peyton Manning, Ind, QB
13 Maurice Jones-Drew, Jac, RB
14 Reggie Bush, NO, RB
15 Brandon Jacobs, NYG RB
16 Willis McGahee, Bal, RB
17 Ronnie Brown, Mia, RB
18 Clinton Portis, Was, RB
19 Steve Smith, Car, WR
20 Marvin Harrison, Ind, WR
So obviously Brandon Jacobs has dropped a lot due to injury. I'm not so much worried about little inaccuracies in the list, but more about players who have vaulted into the first two rounds due to their week 1 play, and players that have lowered in value in week 1 due to injury or poor performance.
For example, has Randy Moss jumped into the discussion for top received with his week 1 performance? Or am I putting too much emphasis on week 1?
Any pointers are appreciated, thanks in advance!
