Every year, I am amazed by the extent to which I succumb to groupthink in the FBG fantasy circles. By definition, many of us are guilty of it. Whether through faulty assessment of David Wilson's prospects in the preseason or an objective understanding of Hillman's role as the Broncos RB, we rarely see a solid red-team analysis that provides an "other side of the coin" point-of-view from somebodies who really understand football. And particularly, from those who understand the player being evaluated.
And when we do see an alternative POV, we can be dismissive because we think we've scored a gem, the next WW wonder like Chad Johnson and Larry Johnson many years ago, Victor Cruz last year.
The fantasy value of a rookie RB who cannot pass protect is pretty low, yet we jumped at opportunities to grab Hillman in hopes of striking gold, while the real opportunity was the "veteran" Moreno.
Anyway, nothing earth-shattering here. I just need to take a moment sometimes and rethink my approach to the WW.
