Exactly...well maybe not. I mean I definitely see what your getting at. I try not to put too much faith in numbers if the player is a stud fantasy player and isn't performing to expectations early in the season. Of course this can vary depending on certain situations I suppose. On the other hand if players are playing out of their mind early in the season and have been consistent doing so for a few games in a row, then I might put some faith behind such a player...take A. Foster for example. I didn't think he be nearly as unstoppable as he's been (in all fairness I'm sure not many out side of Hou. fans saw this one coming) but at this point I'd buy in and say he's the real deal even though he's only had a short sample size to work with thus far this season. Another example this year might be M. Clayton in Stl. A non factor for the first several years of his career for the most part, but since he's arrived in Stl. this year he's been putting up solid fantasy numbers week in and week out. I'd say he's the real deal this year, even though like I said sample size this season is short. Now does that make any sense what I'm trying to say?
