The Two Brandons, WR, DEN: They’re both wide receivers! They both play for Denver! And now … they solve crimes! That’s my fantasy, yours is the fact that both Brandon Stokley and Brandon Marshall are in a good offense with an improving quarterback, and an aging Rod Smithin front of them. Deep leaguers, take note.
(one did good , one did bad .. we call it even)
Jon Kitna, QB, DET: Pick a stat. Do you see the Kitna half full (over 4,200 yards) or half empty (22 interceptions to 21 touchdowns)? Depends on your scoring, your league size and your own mental makeup. But I’m a positive person. Positive that Calvin Johnson only helps, baby!
Mike Furrey, WR, DET: Speaking of Calvin Johnson, everyone is going to be. Speaking about him. Which means folks will forget that Mike Furrey had more than 1,000 yards receiving and almost 100 receptions in 2006. It’ll take the talented rookie a while to adjust; meanwhile, you’ll get a nice first half from a guy who will last until the wee rounds in most drafts.
Donald Driver, WR, GB: Over the past three years, only Chad Johnson and Torry Holt have more receiving yards than Donald Driver.
Greg Jennings, WR, GB: Think Brett goes out handing it off? Me neither.
Brandon Jackson, RB, GB: But every once in a while Brett will have to hand it off. Who he gives it to is the question, and I’m betting that it’s Jackson. The two marks against BJ (I call him BJ) are the belief that the Packers can’t run the ball and the belief in Vernand Morency. Both are misguided. First, Green Bay running backs (Ahman Green, Morency and Noah Herron) totaled over 2,300 total yards and 11 touchdowns last year on fewer than 400 carries and fewer than 100 receptions. Second, Morency stinks. Take out his big 101-yard game against Arizona last year and his yards-per-carry average is 3.9. Our good friends at Scouts Inc. think Jackson is a “shifty, instinctive and tough runner with the size-potential to emerge as a good starter…” I agree.
(ryan grant.. nuff said)
Matt Schaub, QB, HOU: This one’s for the older kids. You know what would be fun? A drinking game called “Hi, Schaub!”
(actually good till injured)
Ahman Green, RB, HOU: A great fit for Kubiak’s offense, and count me among the subscribers to the “If Ron Dayne can do it, anyone can” theory.
(lol)
Owen Daniels, TE, HOU: Fun fact No. 1: Only six tight ends had more touchdowns last year than Owen Daniels. Fun fact No. 2: Daniels’ five touchdowns last year were just as many as Tony Gonzalez and L.J. Smith
