I had him this year after a trade, and i ended up almost making the playoffs because of him. I was in a tie with a couple other people, and they had the tiebrakers. Question is...what overall pick do you think he will be drafted come next season?

Top 10 if they're smart.

I won it all because of him.

Some of them laughed and scoffed since their crystal balls told them that Stew would start....and he may just yet but DeAngelo showed us what he's made of.

I hope I get lucky enough to get him again....

He didn't get the pick of the fans in the ProBowl cause we're a small market team. He didn't get the nod for a number of awards that he deserved. Watch out!!!

He'll earn them next season.

i know there is only a few RBs i would take ahead of him. and alot of elite RBs looked like they got old this season, including tomlinson, portis, westbrook and LJ. i think the only RBs i would take ahead of deangelo would be peterson or turner. pretty much makes him a top 3 pick in my book, especially since no-one will ever take brady in the top 5 again.

im in a keeper league and I have dwill, AP, fitz. calvin johnson and jay cutler

i can keep 3

fitz and AP then I am confused on who to keep.

who would yall keep?

I'd keep deangelo. its hard to find a great RB that puts up the numbers that DW does. CJ and cutler are both good though.

i am thinking that jonathan stewart may take some more of his carries this season though, so kinda hard to tell between deangelo and cutler.

yea that is what i was thinking about jstew....and in our league wr's and rb's are dominant...so i am thinking about keeping calvin johnson...we will see how the offseason goes, i have up to the draft to make my decision

I would keep Cutler because I believe in keeping a QB who will consistently produce, no matter who the opposition is. Cutler will be a top 5 QB in most leagues (regardless of set up).

As for D-Will, I think he will be a top 5 RB pick. That's as much as I can tell ya.

I am somewhat of a BPA guy, but I have had success with taking QBs in the first round, particularly if they are in the top 5. Others do not take that approach, and always take RBs first. If possible, you want to get into the heads of those who are participating in your league.

Just guessing, I would think that there would be enough people who believe in RBs that Deangelo will be gone by the 9th pick, and most definitely the 12th.

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
