It's been a weird year for fantasy football. Who, in your opinion, has been the biggest bust? And who's been the biggest surprise(as in a good way)?

I'll put in my 2 cents worth. Rudi Johnson has to be top bust. I took him 9th too and he's sucked. Even when he plays, he looks awful. Funny thing, I drafted him because he never gets hurt and wanted someone consistent.
LJ, Stephen Jackson, and Alexander have had a few good weeks.
The other big bust is Maroney. I think he was drafted at the beginning of the 2nd round in our league. And Bellichek, for some reason, hates Maroney and doesn't give him enough playing time. Marvin Harrison, a top 3 WR, is looking more and more like a bust too because of injury.
As for surprises, and these are guys you probably got later and have performed great, Romo is one. He's only behind Brady in QB points. Jennings is another. He's got double digit TD's. Favre is another. Braylon Edwards was probably a middle pack WR who's been top 3. Moss too. And Adrian Peterson. Chances are, you got these guys in the middle rounds and I'd bet you're doing real well.

For me personally, it's been Rudi Johnson. Tool gets hurt and doesn't know how to recover from it. Averaging less than 3 yards a carry and I spent my first round pick (9th overall) on this guy. I'm lucky I'm in the playoffs in my league and wouldn't be if it weren't for Romo and Earnest Graham.

If you take away injuries ( which in that case would rule out Alexander, S. Jackson, and L. Johnson among others) I have to think that the biggest bust might have been Reggie Bush. The biggest surprise is hands down no questions asked Derek Anderson. There isn't a fantasy league in the world where someone drafted him, he started as a backup and everyone thought that Brady Quinn would have been in there by now.

Derek Anderson, qb - Browns, is by far the biggest surprise...he started training camp as possibly a third-stringer and has turned in stats a notch below the likes of Brady, Favre and Manning.
Bush, rb - Saints, the biggest stiff of many stiffs this saeson....he was slated to build upon the second-half of his rookie season, but 2007-08 was summed up last week when he couldn't even flip the ball to a receiver on a gadget play.

Had to be guys like Fitzgerald, Matt Forte, Antonio Brown, Gronk, Stafford, Cutler, Chris Johnson, Andre Johnson, Michael Turner and probably Aaron Hernandez.

the biggest bust? i would have to say is gore only becaues he has played in all but 1 game .L.J and jackson have both missed 4 games and have almoust as many points as gore that is sad.the biggest surprise has to be derek anderson because he was not drafted and he did not play in week 1 and only 3 qb's have more points then him for the season.

Bust, For me its been Marques Colston. I thought he would have a big 2nd year. Some highlights, but nothing worth what I needed. 2nd is Berrian.
Biggest surprise.. Adrian Peterson (Min). my 12 yr old nephew said "get him, he is pretty good".. What an understatement.

On my team, it was Shaun Alexander. The biggest surprise, either Fargas or Greg Jennings...and Favre.

Disappointment: LJ - my 1st round pick, no real points, then out for season.
Surprise: Farve - drafted as a decent backup for the bye week, and BAM!, season of his life.
