Title: WINDOWS 2004 - Minnesota Vikings
Post by Philly on Jul 27^th, 2004, 10:11am

No, this isn't a new Microsoft operating system release. This is your opportunity to share your statistical "windows" for players on each of the NFL teams. Our fearless leader, StegRock, refers to these statistical ranges as "windows" and, to show due deference, I will continue that modus operandi.

Every few days as we lead up to the regular season, I'll post a new team. Put your estimated 2004 statistics for players on that team in the thread. If enough people participate, these threads should produce some pretty helpful information for player rankings leading up to your drafts.

Feel free to give windows for as many players as you feel confident. If you play IDP, go ahead and include some defensive player statistics as well. You can just list the player with the windows or you can give reasons for your rankings as well. Discussions of others' rankings are welcome too.

Be sure to scroll down the list and find the Windows for other teams and contribute there as well! ;)

QB
Daunte Culpepper: 4100-4300 PaYds, 30-32 TDs, 18-21 INTs, 400-425 RuYds, 3-5 TDs
Culpepper is the first QB going off the boards this year and for good reason.

RBs
Michael Bennett: 1000-1200 RuYds, 6-7 TDs, 150-250 ReYds
Moe Williams: 400-450 RuYds, 6-7 TDs, 400-450 ReYds, 3-4 TDs
Onterrio Smith: 600-700 RuYds, 4-5 TDs, 100-150 ReYds
Bennett will get the bulk of the carries, but there is still an element of RBBC here. The best hope is to grab Smith and hope Bennett gets hurt.

WRs
Randy Moss: 1450-1600 ReYds, 14-16 TDs
Marcus Robinson: 700-800 ReYds, 5-7 TDs
Nate Burleson: 300-400 ReYds, 1-2 TDs
Moss is consistently a top 10 draft pick, as a WR! Robinson should be a solid complement to Moss and a great #3 FF WR.

TEs
Jim Kleinsasser: 350-450 ReYds, 4-5 TDs
Jermaine Wiggins: 150-250 ReYds, 1-2 TDs
Kleinsasser should be a reliable #2 FF TE, if there is a need for such a thing.

Nothing to add here! Well done! I would throw Kelly Campbell in for a couple TDs too. The kid just seems to be a playmaker. Last year he had 4 TDs, all of which were over 40 yds! He'll get you some big plays, but only 1-3 touches a game, so very little value fantasy-wise. Still a factor when determining which Viking WR you should pick up that isn't named Moss!

GO VIKES!

I just read somewhere that Kelly Campbell was demoted to 5th WR on the depth charts behind Moss, M-Rob, Burleson, and now Keenan Howry...

QB
Daute as always will have a big year. I don't believe he will be the best QB out there, but he is the safest pick with his running ability and Moss to throw to.
3600 yards 30 TD 15 INT

RB
Bennett is just not reliable, but if he is healthy he could be a great pick.
11 games 1100 yards 5 TD 25 catches 300 yards 1 TD
Smith got a couple of chances to start and did well, but that was against very shacky defenses.
700 yards 4 TD
As for Moe Williams......he is not worth drafting.

WR
Moss obviously is a star and if he wasn't such a head case he could be even better.
115 catches 1800 yards 14 TD 1 hit meter maid
There is a reason Robinson didn't put up hugh numbers in Baltimore last year, it's because he just doesn't have it anymore. He can catch touchdowns in one game, but then he will catch 1 ball for 9 yards in 3 or 4 other games. Very overrated, stay away!!
45 catches 600 yards 6 TD

[offtopic]Guys, do remember to give your projections in our patented "Windows" format. That's kind of (part of) the point of this. Thank you for understanding and anticipatively cooperating in the future. [smiley=bow.gif][/offtopic]
