tlance and harold

who would your keepers be

It would definitely be Johnson and a WR, just not sure which.
Evans gives you 2 years, but Warkins provides the best value this year with round 7. I would be choosing between those 2, because I think you are splitting hairs when projecting output this season. There have been really compelling cases made for all 3, so it comes down to your gut, and that sounds to me like Yours is saying Evans.

Excellent point.
Checked my distribution numbers.
While Tampa was fairly consistent with other NFL teams in throwing to the WR position (51% of passes went to the WR), only 26% of TD passes went to a Tampa WR, which was the 4th-lowest WR TD percentage in the NFL.

My guess would be that Winston being a rookie was a big part. I read somewhere (if I am remembering right) that TB had an extremely low passing % in the red zone and went jumbo or goalline more than most. I would think that Winston would have more opportunity in year 2, but even if not, Evans should still be in the field in most jumbo packages.

Nor did he last year, for the most part. Was last year a bad blip, or was his rookie year the fluke? He didn't come through as the #1 very often in VJAX's absence is all that is known

Actually, his best games last year came when VJax was out.

I feel like I remember VJax and Winston getting a lot of training camp/preseason together, and I remember being worried about Evans for that reason.... could be wrong.

I suspect Evans will be more like his second half, than his first half.

True, yet so did a couple of his worst ones. .he's an enigma of sorts, hard to finger. .another reason why with similar options, I'd go another route

I'm confused. Evans didn't have a bad year last year. Fantasy wise he was a little underwhelming due to a lack of TDs but I think he played pretty well. If he regresses to the mean on TDs you should be looking at a very good fantasy WR for 2 years.

Johnson and Rawls (assuming it's R3 and 4?)

Sorry if already mentioned.... is this a 2 WR and flex or 3 WR?
A 3 WR league would bump Rawls for me, in which case I guess I'd take Evans ONLY because of the extra year.

2RB, 3WR, and a flex...........

12 teams

pickings are slim

Yeah... geez! Tough choices. I guess that bumps Rawls for me, but I'd be pulling my hair out if I were you.

Evans... keep him longer, but PPR hurts his value, imo.
Watkins... offense is scary, one year lost, but three round difference might make him the best choice.
Hilton... kind of stuck in the middle of the other two, better value to Evans, more catches than both, but double digit TD seems tougher than it does with the others.

Sorry... probably just making it harder on you

I know it's rough call, Rawls injury hurts his value, and him not being a ppr back,

Watkins injury scares me, plus he has been hurt plus I used him once, when he plays he's a no doubt top 5-7 guy....

Hilton with luck is a monster but can only use for 1 year

Evans had 68, 74 catches I think bw 70-80 is reasonable with I high ypc .,.. :noidea:

I am not a huge Watkins fan, but with a 3 WR+ flex league and a 7th round value, he is my definite keep....


then IMO it comes down to David Johnson, Mike evans and TY hilton...

without round value I rank them

1. Johnson
2. Evans
3. Hilton

since all are within 1 or 2 rounds, i would go with who i like best which for me would be Johnson....

So i would be keeping Watkins and Johnson...

Watkin's last 6 games
6-158-2
3-109-1
5-81-1
5-111-2
5-84-0
11-136-0

Huge uptick in targets started around then. That should continue.
