I think I'd put Welker higher.

Marques Colston should be higher than Smith. Colston is the main target for a pro bowl QB. Smith has a walking injury throwing him the ball.

And Laurence Maroney higher than Brees?

Reggie Bush is way too high.

I hate the guy, and he can't come through in the clutch, but how is Romo not in the top 20

Big Ben not in the top 30?

I think Welker should be a tad higher. I think Romo should be top 20 as well.
The rest, myeh, I don't really disagree with.

I agree with Confucius..., I think Colston should be ranked higher than Smith. Delhomme's coming off injury after injury and won't be as effective..., Smith's a great player but I think Colston's got a better situation in NO. Colston's the no. 1 guy now in NO and in Carolina..., Smith's got competition from Muhammad and Hackett coming in.

I think that, in general, given so many RB committees out there, that there is more vale at WR in rounds 2 and 3 than at RB. I would have all your WR's down through Colston ranked higher.

I don't mind Bush where he is. Call me crazy but I think he has upside.
My main critique is the same one I left on your previous blog. I think you have the top QBs undervalued in general.

Why isn't Drew Brees higher? After a sluggish start, he was great and was awarded with a cream puff pass defence schedule. I think he will finish higher than Romo and maybe even tie Peyton Manning this year.

I think I'd put Welker higher.

Cant do it. Moss and Maroney get most of the TDs.

Yes, he is the main target, but until Duece comes back healthy enough to let the Saints have some semblence of a running threat, defenses will double Colston to death.

And Laurence Maroney higher than Brees?

After a 50 touchdown year, defenses are looking for the Pats to continue to be pass-heavy and I think Belicheat is going to call much more draw plays this year, especially in the red zone.

Reggie Bush is way too high.

I have Bush ranked lower than a lot of WRs. That is an insult to a starting fantasy running back.

Big Ben not in the top 30?

Ben had his career year last year: 32 TDs and only 11 picks. Those numbers are bound to drop given the Steelers have the toughest schedule in the NFL this season.

With a legit dual threat at RB this year, I think Romo's numbers will slightly fall off from last year's 13-3 season.

Steve Smith is still second to none in yards after the catch(YAC)
