For me its just that gut feeling that he's been progressing and that big game is within reach. So if its a gamble regardless, why not?

True. I was just curious what others are seeing. You know ,we all have different views, hell we all watch different games at times

Ok, so if Beckham is out I gotta fill a RB, WR spot and a Flex in PPR.

WR: Ellington, Conley,
RB: Edwards, Riddick, Martin, Jackson

Thoughts?

In the four games DeSean Jackson or Evans has missed over the past two years, Godwin averages 16.6 expected and 17.5 actual fantasy points per game. Across these four games, he’s also averaged 120.8 air yards, 8.5 targets, 1.3 end-zone targets, and 2.0 deep targets per game. Essentially, that’s good for low-end WR1 numbers.

Humphries ranks seventh among wide receivers in fantasy points since Week 8, averaging 17.1 fantasy points per game. However, volume has not been as good, ranking 18th, and averaging 11.9 expected fantasy points per game. This implies a looming regression, and his matchup isn’t as strong as Godwin’s – the Saints are “only” giving up the 13th-most fantasy points per game to opposing slot wide receivers, though he too is solidly in play.

this is what i read on lockett. its crazy

More than any other player, Lockett has given us the most grief this year. Among wide receivers he ranks 25th in fantasy points per game, but just 67th in expected fantasy points per game. I keep proclaiming a statistical regression is coming, but he keeps scoring fluky touchdowns. I’m starting to feel like Chicken Little. Lockett has scored seven touchdowns on 44 targets. Since targets became a stat in 1992, only twice has a wide receiver scored seven or more touchdowns on fewer targets. Still, that wouldn’t necessarily mean a big regression was coming unless he also wasn’t seeing a high percentage of his targets near the end zone. He’s not. He’s seen zero targets inside the 10-yard line and just six end-zone targets and totals 2.31 expected touchdowns. On Lockett’s touchdowns, Russell Wilson averages 31.0 yards in air, with a low of 18. Unless volume drastically improves, the regression is coming.

zero targets inside the 10, 6 redzone targets total. only 44 targets going into week 11. just nuts it keeps happening too

a little follow up

1. Russell Wilson has targeted Tyler Lockett 51 times, resulting in 44 completions, 713 yards, nine touchdowns, and zero interceptions. In other words, Wilson has a perfect passer rating (158.3) when targeting Lockett this year. If the season ended today, Lockett’s 158.3 WR Rating would be the new PFF-era (2007-2018) record for all wide receivers with at least 50 targets.

On Sunday, Lockett caught one of two targets for 52 yards and a touchdown. Lockett has now scored a touchdown in nine of 12 games this year. He’s also reached at least 50 yards in nine of 12 games. That’s pretty impressive, but when we factor in Lockett’s production relative to usage, his numbers are almost hard to comprehend. Among wide receivers, he ranks 17th in fantasy points, but just 57th in targets. Lockett not only leads all wide receivers in fantasy points per target (3.32) but is 26.6% better than the next-closest wide receiver (Tyreek Hill).

Lockett’s efficiency numbers might look even more absurd when considering his production on deep targets (balls traveling 20 or more yards through the air). Lockett ranks second in receptions (11), second in yards (410), and first in touchdowns (seven) on deep targets, but he ranks just 27th in deep targets (14).

All of this is evidence for a looming regression, due to unsustainably high efficiency numbers, and I’ve made that argument before in his space. However, now, due to a more robust sample size, I’m far less bearish than I was earlier in the year. I still think a regression is coming, but I wouldn’t be shocked if Lockett continues to produce as one of the league’s more efficient wide receivers for the remainder of the season. Since we’ve seen it before from Doug Baldwin (2015-2017), perhaps “Seattle WR1” is just a role that can reliably produce hyper-efficient numbers.

what a list of wr's too lol

I was about to say that the list is pretty pedestrian outside of Jordy. The rest of them all elicit the response, "Oh yeah, I remember that guy!"

Packers declared RG Byron Bell (knee) inactive for Week 14 against the Falcons.

Along with Bell, RT Bryan Bulaga (knee) and LG Lane Taylor (foot) were also declared inactive, meaning the Packers are down three of their five starters. Even against the Falcons, Green Bay could struggle to protect Aaron Rodgers. QB Tim Boyle, CB Natrell Jamerson, OLB Kendall Donnerson, and DL James Looney round out the inactive list.

Joe Flacco (hip) is inactive for Week 14 against the Chiefs.
