    I love the guy, I want him at spot #20 (2nd Round) - thoughts on him being around at that point?

    Depends on your scoring. If it's PPR and 6 points per TD, it's highly unlikely. His ADP is at the bottom of the first round.

    Can only hope owners are scared off by his injury problems. That might help, but that's still pretty doubtful for pick 20.

    I've had 2 snake drafts so far and in both he has gone in the first round.

    1 league. 12 teams, he was 11th pick overall
    1 league 16 teams, he was 8th pick overall

    Guys are willing to gamble on his injuries and rightfully so in my opinion the guy is a monster when healthy and he will split 1/2 of Tony Gonzales touches with Roddy White.

    That's way too early to pick him IMO. 8th overall?

    8th is really high. I calculated his ADP in a 16 team PPR league and Jones is being drafted at 1.16

    Well this is a dynasty league too. It's a huge roster 50 total spots. we draft coaches, punters, kickers, offenses, defenses, and special teams. It's fun.

    I've been seeing him mid 2nd in 10-12 teamers. I was shocked that everyone was so down on him in our Auction. I got him for under $30 (29). Maybe I was just lucky enough that there were still other top WR's on the board.

    I understand the risks with him, but he has already played in the preseason, showing he is obviously healthy or they wouldn't risk it this early. That calms my nerves a bit. And you know what type of player you are getting when he is healthy. I firmly believe he would have be the top wr last season sans injury, and people would be taking him in the Calvin/Jimmy Graham spot.
