If he was able to do what he did last year without a camp as the starter, I see him being as successful or more so this season. All offseason, the coaches praised Anderson for thriving under the pressure of being pushed by Brady Quinn and improving his game. Now he's got to show it.
McNabb is the most risky of these three picks. His receivers are all injured and questionable, and even with the support of Westbrook this year, he may not be back to his old self.
I'd draft him if the other two options here were off the board, but I'd make sure to draft another QB soon after, in case McNabb runs into any problems down the road this season and stops performing."
Michael Turner vs. Ronnie Brown vs. Edgerrin James
Maybe this one wasn't as much a debate as a landslide. Michael Turner came out on top in every ranking, with Ronnie Brown losing out to all three.
The Roundtable pointed out:
Ronnie Brown is in a tough situation. He hasn't carried the ball much in the preseason due to injuries, and Ricky Williams has taken advantage. It's going to be a classic timeshare until someone wins out, but Brown needs to get on the field for that to happen. It's just not a good setup to be dealing with.
Michael Turner has been nothing short of solid, and the Falcons will need him to run well in order to succeed with a rookie quarterback under center. He's done nothing but impress so far, but he will need to get himself ready to carry the kind of load the Falcons will require."
Jacob agreed and brought up these points on Edgerrin James:
"Edgerrin James would be solid and in a similar situation to Turner if Matt Leinart was under center, but Kurt Warner is likely to win the starting job in Arizona. With Warner, the Cardinals don't run the ball much. Warner likes to put it in the air. Kurt Warner starting is a plus to Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin, but it hurts Edge's value as a RB2."
With drafts going on this weekend and moves still to be made, hopefully, the forum here helps clear up some of the problems owners run in to come draft day.
