ganesh Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 These guys are over their head....They have A.J Hawk as the 10th best rookie of this class and even have a CB from the Titans in the list....and no mention of the NFL rookie of the month, Donte Whitner.... NFL top 10 rookies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 No 'reaches' allowed on that list. Reggie Bush reacharounds, now, that's different.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ1 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 No, there's no intentional bias against the Bills in the media. Bills fans are oversensitive on that subject. Don't you know that? Let me give you a dose of the 'When we start winning, we'll get respect' bs line, in addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last I saw was that the Titans were 0-3, the packers just managed to 1-2, the Lions are 0-3 (Simms the guy picked behind whitner made it), Texans are 0-3. Hey, he is after all a REACH...

Astrobot Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I'm sure Whitner's better than Titans' Cortland Finnegan, that Free Safety from old Samford... Golly I miss that show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortured Soul Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 It's not an overall ranking. It's a week-by-week ranking. What did Whitner do last week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanForever19 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 It's not an overall ranking. It's a week-by-week ranking. What did Whitner do last week? 789621[/snapback] Beat me to it. Whitner was like #2 or #3 a week or two ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Pro Football Weekly don't have him in the top 10 either(he dropped out this week) They do however have Keith Ellison as #9. LINK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 It's not an overall ranking. It's a week-by-week ranking. What did Whitner do last week? 789621[/snapback] So Reggie Bush is this week's best rookie by rushing for 53 yards and no scores and being a non-factor? Looks to me like it's a cumulative thing, it's just changed every week like the college football top 25 and guys move up or down, in or out of the top ten. Whitner still should be in the top ten.

cantankerous Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Reggie Bush was definitely a factor in NO's win over Atlanta. He totaled something like 80 yards and was used on multiple occaisions as a decoy...which was worked to perfection on the reverse that scored a TD.

DanInSouthBuffalo Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 I haven't heard ANYTHING about A.J. Hawk, not even on Sirius. That's because the Packers can't stop anyone. Maurice Drew has had one good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Reggie Bush was definitely a factor in NO's win over Atlanta. He totaled something like 80 yards and was used on multiple occaisions as a decoy...which was worked to perfection on the reverse that scored a TD. 790364[/snapback] That was the best performance of the week by a rookie? A "factor" who was a "decoy' and had 80 yards but didn't score, but somehow managed to hand off on a reverse? Does Greg Jennings count for scoring a 75 yard TD and having a 101 yards? Or how about Colston in the same NO game who had seven catches for 97 yards? The list is cumulative. Bush is #1 because they consider him #1 after three aggregate games. They give rankings from last week and you can see guys like Maroney who was #2 last week, because he had two good games, they say he didn't do much this week so he is now #6. Manny Lawson had a mediocre week so he went from #3 to #9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bush is #1 because they consider him #1 after three aggregate games. 790384[/snapback] To be fair, Bush is number 1 because the media has a wood over him. He could have 1 carry for 2 yards at this point and he'd maybe drop down to #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a couple others. I think Bush is going to be pretty damn good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
