Overvalued - Mike Williams (TB), Brandon Marshall, Vick, Ray Rice (like him but at 3 seems too high), Peyton Hillis

Undervalued - Stafford, Ingram, Felix Jones (trade after fast start due to likelihood of injury), Green-Ellis, McNabb (screen passes to Peterson count), Reggie Bush


Who do you have? @)

Agree with Felix Jones being undervalued.
But people are catching on to him fast.

Reggie Bush as well.... At least until he gets hurt! haha

I disagree on Mike Williams though.
Tampa will be throwing & throwing this year and Josh Freeman's favorite target is Williams...

Agreed on Felix. If he is undervalued by the time your draft rolls around, you are probably playing with amateurs. He is rising fast.

Also agree on MWilliams, he is a beast and should pickup where he leftoff last year.

Disagree with the OP on Marshall as well. The guy totally sucked last year and STILL had 86/1040 in 14 games. Thats 100-1200 in 16 games and his TDs will improve even if the QB situation is screwed up, he is just too elite of a talent.

I also disagree on Ray Rice. McGahee is gone and he is finally gonna get goal-line. How many RBs in the NFL are in a good offense and get all 3 downs and goal line? I see Rice 5th on every list, I think thats pretty good value for him.

Some young WRs worth a flier AJ Green, Julio Jones, Malcolm Floyd (Gates can officially be called injury prone), Roy Williams (I know we all think he sucks, but cmon might be #1 in Chi, MS Walker (Bradford breakout year) Most of these guys won't cost much.

Great insight guys

I really like Mike Williams but was slightly surprised to see his perceived value that high
Good point on Roy Williams

To add, Jacoby Ford

I'll throw Addai in there for undervalued, where is is ranked right now he is practically free. Yeah he is injury prone and not the most dynamic talent but he has legit receiving skills, knows their O like the back of his hand and is a good red zone back. I'd want to make sure my #1 RB was like Foster/Rice if I got Addai but I think he can be decent for cheap.

Also I saw you said Green-Ellis undervalued. As a Pats fan I dunno about that one, Woodhead is gonna get all the 3rd down work and this new kid Steve Ridley is probably gonna factor into the mix as well. Lack of carries and no receiving work means LawFirm really needs to score tons of TDs to have value.

Ryan Grant is interesting too, it feels like GB is gonna pound him for another year for the most part with Starks just playing in a backup role.

I think at #5 Ray Rice may be undervalued. Like was said, Rice is going to get the goal line carries now and he now has Leach leading the way. I love Ray Rice this year.

I also seen someone mention AJ Green as a big sleeper. I couldn't agree more. This Bengal team is going to be playing from behind a lot and Dalton loves to chuck it towards AJ.

undervalued:

reggie bush (if he can stay healthy) - he is now the #1 rb. Looks like he will give up some goal line carries but he is a threat from the slot as well and will light up PPR leagues.

Willis Mcgahee - he was a fading star but he was behind Ray Rice. Everyone looks like a fading star behind Ray Rice

Kyle Orton - he has been battling to keep his starting spot and puts up better numbers than he gets credit for. obv not as good as your Bradys, Mannings, etc. but a very nice late rd qb or #2.

overvalued:

Arian Foster - he is good, but I'd take AP and maybe RR over Foster. They say don't worry about the injury but I can't help it.

mendenhall - he has put up good numbers but I wasn't impressed with his running. I have a feeling anyone decent shows life then he will split a lot of carries

Did you see Foster play last week? Hamstring looked fine.

Undervalued is Nate Burleson

aj green?????? rookie wr never make fantasy impact.. sure we can go moss colston but that is far and few when rookie wr do something worth a crap! i expect green to get drafted to high then dropped then maybe late in the year get picked back up and do something with in reason! the bengals have nothing, playing from behind all year doesnt mean throwing the ball will be a success.. teams will just bait the rookie dalton and it will be more 3 n outs!

roy williams, always liked roy and i think he is a good wr, but i think j.knoxx takes the job from him.. roy has lost a step and just doesnt seperate like he use to! i hope as a fan roy gets it done for a great year but im just kinda unsure bout fntast value unless it's a real late flyer on the guy!

m williams is a bit of a mystery, a solid year but i dont think he matches last year, he will get more attention this year and they desmon briscoe kid is a guy i think steals plenty of balls from mike, i look for him to gwt the starting gig on the other side of mike!!

eli is a guy i can see tossing maybe 30 tubs this year and going over 4,ooo yards! you can get him super late! the wr's are good and 2 unknown te's in bear pascoe and travis beckum will do fine minus kevin boss! this is a team that will be doing some passing as the def i look to be a mess this year! some high scoring games with the giants this year!

super sleepers with upside
rb-roy helu, perfect for shanny sysytem.. 1 cut runner and will take the starting gig soon imo
wr-eric decker, guy has size and great hands.. nice fit in a balanced fox system where teams are going to focus on the constant run game of fox, imo he should be the number 2 wr and orton will find a red zone liking to this guy

I love Ray Rice but the first five weeks he will play the Steelers, Jets, and have a bye week...that's a rough start.

people seem to be forgetting that the ravens got ricky williams for a reason...they did say that ray won't take as much of a workload as he did last year.

Montario Hardesty, Ben Tate, Brandon Gibson, Denarious Moore, Todd Heap, Leonard Hankerson, Cecil Shorts, Josh Brown, are a few later round guys I'm high on.

They were predicting Ben Tate to be a huge force last year in Houston last year before he broke his leg. Now that Foster had the break out season, does that affect Tate? I saw him play in PS last year and he looked really good. Havent saw much of him this year tho.

As long as Foster is healthy and playing Tate will be a non factor. He may get a few looks but not worth anything before round 10.

I am taking Foster over AP. AF vs RR, tough call there.

Greg Olson could be a top-5 TE in Carolina. They will be losing, ALOT.
