Snoozefest

 

Trying to make an Anthony Gonzalez player profile interesting is like whipping out your unit with 30 mph winds blowing in your face and trying to take leak without getting any on your Diesels.  It’s a bold task that takes much planning and forethought, but at the end of the day, it's just not possible.  

If A-Gon was a politician, he’d be this…

and we’re the dude in white hair behind him. 

Speaking of sleep – A-Gon was a “sleeper” heading into ’08, but did not quite deliver as one.  It was a reasonable assessment as he had averaged nearly 74 yards per game while scoring three TDs over the final five contests in the ’07 season.  His per game stats actually decreased in ’08 as Marvin Harrison, despite being a shell of his former self, was able to make it through much of the season and command his share of looks.  Gonzalez was the fourth option in ‘08 and caught an impressive 72% of passes thrown his way (59 catches on 79 targets); Peyton Manning had a very ordinary stat output relatively speaking.  Yes, 28 total TDs and just over 4,002 yards passing is ordinary for him. 

 

His Game

He stands at an un-imposing 6’0 and 193 pounds.  He isn’t overly speedy clocking his 40 yard dash at 4.46.  He has sticky hands and for however ordinary his top speed is, he plays the game quicker than that.   He changes direction well and has great acceleration out of his cuts.  He is decent after the catch but won’t break many tackles.   None of that crap matters, though.  He will be a starting receiver on a team QB’d by Peyton Manning.   He’s going to be more productive.

 

2009 Fantasy Outlook

 

"Mystery" Marvin Harrison has been cut in an effort to salvage $6 million in salary and Anthony Gonzales slides un-challenged into the #2 WR slot opposite Reggie Wayne.    If there is a double team to be had in the secondary, it’s not going to be on A-Gon.  He perhaps becomes Manning’s third favorite target between Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark, but third on Peyton Manning’s team is better than second on pretty much 29 other teams.  So we consider him as a sleeper candidate again this season and we think he will just make it as a fantasy starter (10 man league or higher) in all formats.   He isn’t much of a red-zone target but Manning has never struggled hitting his receivers in stride in between the 20’s.   A-gon should be a nice role player on your squad as a WR3.

Injury Alert

Yellow

He played all 16 games in ’08, but has had a mysterious “leg” injury lately and the Colts have all but dodged questions relative to his status. If it happens to be his knee, be worried. This will all be reported in our Newsbreakers, and his status here could change if it ends up being minor.
