i totally understand the expectations for ryan mathews, and agree that he has an upside for sure, but i cant help be a bit surprised by how early he is going in some drafts. i dont tend to draft a lot of rookies in starting positions and dont fault those who do, but i steered clear of him just because it seems there is almost TOO much of a buzz around him, it almost seems unrealistic. i would have taken a chance on him in say the 3rd round, but there is no way he is going that late in any draft.
im pleased with getting arian foster as my 12th round pick in my draft 2 weeks ago, when he was still a "sleeper". now he is going in the 4th and 5th rounds in most drafts. sometimes drafting early has its benefits.

14 team, non-ppr
QB - eli manning, jason campbell
RB - deangelo williams, shonn greene, beanie wells, arian foster, justin forsett
