I'd like to hear your guys thoughts on what you think Marion Barber's workload will be this year.
The prevailing opinion out there seems to be that Felix Jones will eat into Barber's workload to the point that he will no longer finish in the top 15 RBs or so.
I think he'll garner about 60% of the workload in Dallas, equating to about 14-15 att/game. I still think he'll be used heavily on 3rd downs/in the passing game--due in large part to his Superb pass-blocking ability (the guy is a Beast, like having a freakin' guard in the backfield!)--and I think he'll end up with 40 or so receptions.
And I of course have Barber remaining the RB of choice once the 'Boys cross the 20.
To me, this workload will not be much different at all from the workloads he's had the previous two years--years in which he's finished inside the top 15 in my league PPG-wise.
My only major concern with Barber this year is the Dallas offense--I think T.O.'s departure will hurt it's productivity. Since Barber's workload is lesser than many other top 10-12 RBs, his value is slightly more reliant on TDs. Not sure he's going to see the same amount of scoring chances with T.O. gone.
But I'm a Dallas fan--and a big fan of Barber--so my judgment may certainly be clouded when it comes to assessing his value.
Would love to hear your guys' thoughts on Barber. Do you see F. Jones (or anything else) changing his value at all?
Chris-
I keep hearing you reference a "Dynasty thread at FBG.com" on your site...Sounds like there's always good stuff being bounced around over there.
I've looked and looked, but can't find a 'dynasty thread/forum.' Where can I find that?
starred,
Sorry for the delayed response.
RE: MBIII's workload. I think it will be reduced from the past year and a half where he had taken over as the workhorse (before last December's injured toe).
I see both Jones and Choice changing his value, especially in Dynasty leagues. It's pretty clear that Choice can replicate his production, which is never a good sign for a Dynasty RB.
MBIII's physical style is also a concern. Because he's so hard hitting, he's better with fewer carries -- and everything Jerry Jones and Wade Phillips have said this year indicates that they now realize this.
There's no Dynasty forum. It's just one threat that's 69 pages long and has a lot of great feedback/discussion. Here's a link to the most recent page: http://forums.footballguys.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=283290&st=3400&start=3400
You could also find links on this blog:
- In the first sentence of the introduction paragraph at the top of the blog, there's a link that says "Dynasty Rankings Thread."
- Over on the side under Fantasy Football Links is a link to the "Original FBG Dynasty Rankings Thread." That's the same thing.
Isn't Michael Bush a little high on this list? It seems like the other guys in his tier are much more likely to get action this year and many aren't much older than him.
Do you think Bush will end up being paired with McFadden and Fargas ends up as strictly a backup?
I know it costs 30 dollars for the iphone 3G but what's the cost for the 1st generation iphone?
