Revisiting Pick 1.6
In Week 2, I
wrote about how I already regretted taking Chris Johnson at 1.6 in two NFFC leagues. And while it was nice to see him go off for 195 yards and two TDs Sunday, he's still on pace for just 1,385 yards from scrimmage and 4.6 scores, hardly first – or even second – round material.
But the player I felt I should have taken – as the big five (Arian Foster, Ray Rice, LeSean McCoy, Calvin Johnson and Aaron Rodgers were gone) and I didn't want to spend an early pick on a QB – was Darren McFadden, who's on pace for 1,309 yards from scrimmage and 5.3 scores. In other words, he's been about exactly equal to Johnson. Other running backs I could have taken there – DeMarco Murray, Matt Forte, Trent Richardson and Maurice Jones-Drew – haven't fared much better and in some cases would have been quite a bit worse.
