For some reason, I'm thinking he's been nicked up this preseason...am I right?? Just want to be sure...I've been avoiding him in later rounds in FF because of it...

LSU, I found this on Yahoo sports:
Aug 25 Morton's mysterious Achilles injury continues to be a problem, and according to Chiefs coach Dick Vermeil, the receiver is not expected to be ready for the start of the regular season. Morton has been sidelined since hearing something in his foot pop while jogging earlier this month, and the team has not set a timetable for his return.

Ahhhh, many thanks...I guess I'll continue to ignore him in later rounds. Looks like Eddie Kennison is the man, now... :eek:

Or perhaps Dante Hall? I've heard that he may break into the starting lineup.

It's a brilliant strategy, rivaling the football prowess of one Mike Martz.

I'm targeting Bulger in my next draft. Definitely. I don't care how many good RBs STL has...Martz will pass pass pass...so what if Bulger is 15 of 56 each game with 2 INTs...he'll have at least 3 TDs. And in the end, that's all that matters. ;)

I laughed when I read that, but it is true. For your sake, I hope INTs aren't deducted in your league.

Of course all of that was tongue in cheek, but most of the leagues I play have TDs at 6 pts (18 pts for 3 tds) and -2 for INTs (-4 total) to it's a net gaing of 14 points plus whatever yardage.
I only have 2 drafts left, though, and one is the NFCN one...and I think I remember TDs not being worth 6...so...I miiiiiiiiiiight lay off the Bulge in that one...

Yeah, the NFCN league is more yardage heavy than anything, and the template we're using requires more ability to decipher talent as well as skill in determining starting lineups as opposed to getting lucky.

I don't know man...I don't think most of the guys in the league are very good at "getting lucky."
