MF'ing Monte Ball.

Never gonna live that one down, am I?

He SHOULD HAVE BEEN AMAZING!!

Trent Richardson for me.

@Barilko will never let me live that one down!

 

[obxyankeefan]

Resheed Salaam or however you spell it. I thought he was going to be the next Walter Peyton when he came out of Colorado.

WR Peerless Price for me.
He was a great WR2 in Buffalo.
Off on his own ... bupkis as @TREFF would say.

My bad. I was looking for decent outlets that have player rankings overall at their positions. I’m in the dark and don’t know who is a good resource in the market and who is just full of shit and mailing it in.

I agree with the Fantasy Pros suggestion.

If you're in to YouTube advice, I've grown fond of Sal Vetri.
He has a short and sweet way of getting deep into numbers/opportunities.

Yep. I use Fantasy Pros every year. I put the rankings into my own spreadsheet for PPR, Standard and Superflex. A nice guide. Better than most.

more like tied for 15th..

Was looking at the 1st column.

Same odds as Cleveland!

Woah. Dotson traded to the Eagles.

Woah. Dotson traded to the Eagles.

well he's definitely droppable in Philly. MAYBE he's the #3 WR, #5 at best in the target hierarchy- Brown, Smith, Barkley, Goedart -those 4 might change positions, but they are the top guys, no doubts about it-, but a team that runs as much as they do, that's gonna be a pretty small role

IDK
Traded for a 5th. That may not be an indicator of obscurity. Even Fields was traded for a 6th and he may win the starting job.

Fields has less competition... or more accurately.. Pittsburgh has fewer options

Hell be on the roster, just not in a fantasy relevant spot

Dotson and a fifth for a 3rd and 2 7ths? Philly gave up a lot for just depth on the WR chart.

I think he went for that price because he can fill two roles. He can play the slot and hold down the 3rd WR role but the Eagles have no depth after Brown and Smith. They’ve gotten very lucky with the health of that pair. Additionally, Goedert seems to get hurt and miss 3-4 games every year. For me, Datsun isn’t a take in a draft but a guy I keep an eye on. Any WR or Goedert tweak and he could become valuable.

If you consider the third WR in 11 personnel a starter, Dotson is a starter.

 

[Shanemansj13]

So he goes from being a 2 or 3 with a rookie Daniels at QB to being a 3 or 4 with Hurts.

Fantasy wise. Not sure this is a good thing

He lost his job to Dyami and Zacheus in Washington, no where to go but up!

 

[SmokingMonkey]

McLaren
Brown
Zacheus
Ertz/Sinnott
Ekeler

Dotson wasn't getting any targets from Daniels this season. He at least has a real chance to earn the WR3 role for Philly

 

[Clayton]

McLaren

I knew he was scary fast but dang.

Washington had an overload at slot. Makes sense they got rid of Dotson. He had almost no value there imo.

I mean I knew he was bad but not this bad LOL

Does Philly operate a base 11?? I truly don't know.
My assumption would be, with the run game they like, would be a 12 personal, but I dunno.

But.. regardless.. with the running game, with Brown, Smith, Goedart, and Barkley.. is the 3rd WR, starter or no, relevant?

I looks like their base is 11 although not as extreme as some teams like the Rams. If I'm looking at useful data, the Eagles threw it over the middle less than any team in the league last year.
