Jake Plummer is nothing like Corey Dillon. In 6 seasons playing for a
garbage team, Dillon has never rushed for fewer than 1,100 yards per
season. Plummer has done nothing comperable at his position. Plummer
was off to a good start this season, but he had Clinton Portis rushing
and a soft schedule where the Broncos beat Houston, Chicago &
Cincinnati in 3 of the 5 games Plummer started. Even Brian Griese was
able to put up a passing rating over 100 playing in QB friendly
Denver. I watched Plummer's games many times when he was at Arizona
State but he has yet to live up to his potential. This is Plummer's
7th season as a starter and as collectors we're still paying prices
based on his potential? At least with Corey Dillon, you're paying for
6 years of NFL success.

Dillon is a good buy right now. Like Plummer last season, Dillon is a stud
trapped on a pathetic team (at least in his eyes). I made a bundle on Plummer
and will on Dillon as well. He IS selfish and he IS a cancer in the locker
room. I'm buying right now and plan to sell in week one of next season, after
he busts out for 100 yards and everyone is yelling MVP. I'll get rid of them
before half way through the season when his true colors show.

I'd like to see Dillon get out & stop bitching. I really hope he gets to
a big market team for the exposure. Then again, many consider him a punk
ass bitch.

He's been banged up this season - but the MRI on his knee shows "no
serious damage" (

statsId=3879).

Recent eBay prices show how far his cards have dropped:
1997 SP Authentic Corey Dillon Rookie PSA 10 ($100)
1997 Topps Chrome Corey Dillon PSA 10 ($37.25)

Is Dillon a good risk? At these depressed prices? He hasn't been too
impressive this season so far, so if I want his cards, I'd want to hold
them until next season.

What do you guys think?
