Football Memo

Top 20 fantasy football projections

1 L. McCoy- the addition of Sproles really helps McCoy hit even higher platues this coming season.
2. J. Charles- With starting pro bowl tackle Alberts gone, Charles will find it difficult to find the wide open spaces he was afforded in 2013.
3. M. Forte- The biggest jump so far. With Tresmans offense look for the multi talented back to bust out bigger than before.  The sky is the limit here.
4. A. Peterson- slowed down a bit last season but with an eventual fix of the awful QB play of 2013, AD will be back to his scoring ways.
5. C. Johnson- I am moving him up my board because of the acquisition of Golden Tate.  That move should make the unstoppable even more unstoppable.
6. M. Lynch- You can’t go wrong with a guy who does not get injuries.  Plus he keeps getting better.
7. A. Rodgers- He is here because he is worth a first round selction. I personally would never take a QB this early but someone will and argue why it was the best move possible.  So this one is for you.  Please don’t argue with me anymore.
8. C. Spiller- Last years bust will be this years gem. I expect a monster year from the beast from Buffalo after last year’s fizzle.  I am also counting F. Jackson to take another step backwards.
9. J. Gordon- Welcome to the top 10 Flash.  With Weeden gone he will only get better.  Most likely this last year you will be able to get this kind of value outside of the top 5 because of the NFL’s tendency to throw the ball more.
10. A. Foster- Should be up for a bounce back year for the oft injured back. With Ben Tate gone handcuffing him will become extremely futile.
11. D. Martin- The muscle hamster had a rough 2013 but the talent and speed is there so look for Lovie Smith to make sure this kid is gets his due.
12. A. Jefferies/B. Marshall- I am not sure right now who their #1 but it will be either one of them, so whom ever it is just know they will be very nice to have as a high up 1 value.
13. B. Tate– With him signing on as the # 1 in Cleveland, #44 should be the back he was drafted to be. Seeing that the Browns offensive line is not that bad he should move even higher as we get closer to draft time.
14. P. Manning- Age and the fact that it is extremely difficult to repeat record breaking seasons like he had last year put him at 14. But couldn’t definitely blame anyone drafting him higher than this.
15. D . Thomas- Every year this kid keeps getting better. Can’t lose pick here.
16. J. Graham– After a “down” season in 2013 and the fact that he is clearly not happy being franchised, plus if Gronk is healthy Graham could be considered an also run.
17. The Gronk- If he is healthy he will carry your team. Unfortunately he is not often healthy.
18. Z. Stacy- He burst on the scene last season and turned a lot of heads with his brutal running style.  As long as the Rams see what they have, it would seem that they found there replacement for S. Jackson.
19. L. Bell– Should grow very nicely this year. Hard nosed with the hands to make a difference in the screen game makes his upside.  Plus with no real options at receiver besides Brown he should have a steady diet of the ball.
20. A. Brown– Has the ability to turn a 5 yard pass into a 90 yard touchdown.

Eric Decker just got a major byump with the signing of Vick but at the end of the day you can’t be sure that Rex and company will do the right thing for Jet nation. I can see an Ill advised comment on a plane disappearing here so I’ll leave that to you.
