My dad still tries to take Curtis Martin in the first round of fantasy to this day. He was that good to him.
“I’m not saying anything against Mark Sanchez, but Peyton Manning … I have a lot of respect for the guy. I played against him for a number of years. I wouldn’t care who was on my team — if Peyton Manning was available, I would go after him.”
“I’m very bullish on taking that chance,” said Martin, who retired after the 2006 season. “I don’t care if he’s 38, 36, whatever, I would be interested in taking that chance. At 35, 36, I’m definitely interested.”
“You’re literally talking about one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game,” he continued. “Him having a year off, the type of competitor Peyton Manning is, I think he’s going to come back and surprise everyone and be even stronger — if he can come back.” - Curtis Martin: Give me Peyton Manning - Jets Blog - ESPN New York
