Top 19 WRs

[Trudem]

Your comments reminded me of Peerless Price. (Not sure if you're old enough to remember him?)

BTW who's Nuk?

oh Peerless Price...I remeber him while he was at UT in college lol.

Nuk Is Hopkins.

Once again, Robbie Anderson is a trendy pick; he'll be an interesting training camp watch. I'd say right now, his self-destruction level is at an all time low.

Are they going to feed him or just use him as a deep threat? I fear the latter so keep him out of the Top 19.

But the 16-236-2 in weeks 15 and 16 look very promising. He's definitely towards the top of the next group.

i do remember peerless price, kinda

seriously ????? nuk=hopkins

 

[SteelersPride]

You like Shepard as the #1 there over Tate? Tate is used to catching 90 balls.

i do.Shephard showed sings of life and they gave him a contract. He had 107 targets last year if you believe it or not.

Tate had 113. But the numbers and receptions went down in philly. I just think shephard has the teams trust, and they're invested in him. Could be wrong, very easily could be

Price was the WR2 in Buffalo when Kelly was around. He was a bankable fantasy WR despite being the #2. Then he got his big break as the WR1 in Atlanta. Failed miserably.

As for Nuk, sorry. I haven't heard the reference.

It's been his nickname from back in college. His Twitter handle is nukdabomb

Foster the #1?

Zay Jones 56-652-7 to lead the pack a year ago. Drafted in the early 2nd from a small school, doubled his production from year 1 to 2, got a QB and is now entering his prime.

John Brown, in a down year, had 42-715-5. Similar type of player as Foster.

Foster 27-541-3. Basically in 7 games. Pretty respectable 62-1237-7 if extrapolated over the full season.

Of course if we extrapolate the end of the season then Zay Jones will be catching 16 TDs this year. And Josh Allen will rush for 1269 with 13 TDs and a 3312/21/19 in the air.

I've watched every game twice, that Zay Jones has played. He had a couple good games. He had many, many, many terrible games and even more untimely drops. He is not a #1 (the Bills won't really have one).

Brown is a favorite of mine. I'm psyched he is now a Bill. But I'll be mildly surprised if he makes it through the year.

Foster sparked this team last year. I believe he is our best receiver.... and I don't think it's particularly close either.

Forgot to add... Foster had nine targets in the first nine games. Of which Jones had 50...and zero TD.

I think leaving the team that developed you can be awful for lots of WRs.
I don't have the stats to back this up, but I think you were the one the clued me into FA WR's not performing well after they leave - in most cases. Obviously there will be some examples of players that did well regardless where they played, but most that we get excited about seem to pitter out more than explode on the scene with their new teams.

Juju gets same team/QB for his chance to shine, a bit of a different animal than a WR that leaves in FA.

If opportunity is a major key to fantasy success, Juju won't lack in that department. Over 200 open targets from last year's steelers to redistribute between Juju (yr 3), Washington (yr 2), Moncreif (FA addition), Diontae (rook) and Vance (oft injured TE).

Give me Juju out that group, please and thank you.

since I keep chiming in, here's a rough draft, most guys will fluctuate between now and when drafts start.
And I'll add a little spice at the end of my list here, my #19 is gonna be a TD hound this year!

Hopkins
Adams
Thomas
Odell
Julio
Juju
Evans
Cooper
K Allen
Edelman
Hilton
Antonio
Cooks
Thelien
Woods
Diggs
Kupp
Lockett
Funchess

I don't know...

I have my top 7 ready but after that, I am not sure at all...

My top 7 is easily

1. Hopkins
2. Adams
3. Thomas
4. AB
5. Julio
6. Evans
7. ODB


after my top 7, I have a hard time putting anyone on.... I think Mike Williams is going to take over in SD, I think there are too many weapons in Indianapolis for there to be a real number one.. I am a notorious Juju hater...

I think players like Golladay, Corey Davis, and Mike Williams will probably make the top 20.... But if I put them on here, then it looks like I am TRYING to be THAT PERSON...

 

[averagejoe]

Question for you guys with ODB in your top 5-7.... why?

He seemed to do most of his damage when the Giants had no RB. Now he goes to a team with strong RB depth as well as plenty of other mouths to feed (Landry & Njoku). And dare I mention... it's Cleveland.

What are you seeing that I'm not?

Biggest reason is the big play ability... I mean, I don't expect 100 catches from him, but I do expect him to do more with his catches than anyone else on the list...

ODB #2 in my book, after Hopkins. Getting my list ready.

well dammit, I guess I'll just steal all of Berry's work today, lol!

again from the 100 facts article, which Berry even admits he's purposely cherry picking stats to prove his thoughts, but they are facts, which make them better than "expert projections" when basing my decisions for next year.

11. In Week 9 of last season, Freddie Kitchens took over the playcalling duties for the Cleveland Browns.

12. From Week 9 of last season on, Baker Mayfield led the NFL in deep completions per game.

12a. And he was second in yards per attempt.

12b. He also was second in deep attempts per game.

12c. He was 10th in QB fantasy points.

12d. And he just added Odell Beckham Jr. and a full offseason in Kitchens' offense

I am a notorious Juju hater...

what do you want for Juju in D2?
you have glaring need at QB in that one......

 

[HaroldSeattle]

1) Hopkins
2) Adams
3) Thomas
4) Julio
5) Evans
6) K. Allen
7) Odell
8) Cooper
9) Diggs
10) Thielen
11) A. Brown
12) Golladay
13) B. Cook
14) Lockett
15) Hilton
16) Green
17) C. Ridley
18) Jeffry
19) Edelman
20) Woods

I'd call this a very fluid list, if I did another tomorrow could be in a slightly different order.

good question... I have showed interest earlier this off season to improve my QB situation, then did a typical milk disappearing act... so I am not sure if I am ready to make deals yet... unless they are obvious ones on my behalf....
