    He's on my watch list. He averaged around 5.5 ypc last year and something like 7.5 ypcatch last year. I'm gonna see if he's still around mid draft.

    HELL NO!

    But I'll tell you who is...Randy Moss.

    He's in a contract year. Led the league in TD's last year (for wr's). He will kill it this year.

    It depends how your league scores. In my league outside of Peyton, Brady, and Breesus it doesn't matter who your QB is, but you had better make good picks at RB and WR. I think PT Bruiser may have to split the load too much to be taken that high.

    I'd put Andre Johnson, Randy Moss, Ray Rice and Aaron Rogers in the top 10 for sure.

    The only Saint who should be in the top 6 at his position is Brees. He spreads the ball around too well to allow any one rb/wr to put up great fantasy numbers.

    Here are some possibilities:

    - Steven Jackson is on a terrible Rams team, and the only thing they seem to do decent is hand the ball to him. He had 1400+ rushing yards, but only 4 TDs.

    - Ray Rice had 1300+ yards rushing with 7 TDs and 700+ recieving yards with 1 TD in his first year as the full time starter.

    - Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson were extremely effective last year for the Texans, as Schaub led the NFL in passing yards with 4770 and 29 TDs. Johnson had 1500+ yards and 9 TDs.

    - Tom Brady. Need I say more? (Wes Welker?)

    - Philip Rivers had 4200+ yards and 28 TDs with only 9 INTs.

    - Aaron Rogers had 4400+ yards passing with 30 TDs and only 7 INTs.

    - Reggie Wayne caught 100 passes for 1200+ yards and 10 TDs.

    - Players waiting to explode: Calvin Johnson, Frank Gore, DeSean Jackson, Sidney Rice, Rashard Mendenhall, Jamaal Charles

    I'm sure there are others I am leaving off.
