I agree with this except that I would slide Evans or AJ Green in over AR15 due to Bortles/Jax struggles so far.
Haha, I prefer first initial and last name (see M Jones) but I got lazy with a long last name.
WR43 with a high week of WR20
I am predicting this changes. He looked SO much better last week than week 1, pass happy offense, I don't have any faith in Wallace as a #1 WR for any team.
Interesting. Flacco seems to like Wallace and has targeted him in the RZ every week. Almost had another TD but dropped it last week. Wallace is a steal this year IMO
WR9 PPG basis (PPR)
There you go. I play ppr. ROS - I am throwing SS in the mix for top 5.
So Steve Smith, who has been in the top 5 once, 11 years ago, has a chance to do it again at age 37?
I can't speak to how Smith will do this year, but in 0 PPR leagues, here were his PPG rankings each season over his career since he became a starter.
What exactly did I manipulate? I listed his rankings based on when he played. Should we rank players for when they don't play?With the way you manipulated the criteria, you should run for public office.
Problem with Landry is he doesn't get many yards or TDs. He's the sell high right now, IMO. Game script had really helped him out, plus injuries to Foster, Parker, and Cameron. When everyone is healthy he's a 0ppr WR3 and PPR WR2.
I agree with this. I think he will finish top 10 TBH just based off the facts that you outlined regarding having to throw. I just don't think he finishes top 5. He is the #1 WR in my league right now which is why I think he's a good sell high. He will finish top 10, 15 at worst, which puts him at the biggest steal at WR this season still. A good target to get and sell IMO
If you own him, you're not getting WR1 return value in a trade. People are only looking to pay ~WR12 (at best) for him since everybody knows he's probably coming back down to earth to some extent. But from Week 4 to Week 16, I think he's got as good a shot at top 5 production as anyone not named Antonio Brown (nobody can match that target volume). Jones is getting a sustainable number of targets (24% of team targets) and catching a sustainable percentage of them (62%). He won't average 22.7 YPR, but he could easily continue 1 TD per 9 receptions, if not improve upon it given his deep threat role.
For the sake of debate, I think a lot of what is causing people pause on Baldwin (I left him off, but gave him a nod as an alternate) is the targets. He got 100 last year. He's on pace for 144 this year. The team is on pace for 586 which is likely to drop off. Graham looks to be back. Lockett is ready to take a year 2 step forward. I really like Baldwin's game paired with Wilson, but I think he's in the 6-12 range from weeks 4-16.
Maybe it's just me, but I feel like he's got Jonathan Stewart-esque lower leg injury tendencies. If he's 100% healthy, he's a lock. That's just a huge if while other guys are healthy and producing right now.
It would not surprise me if Pryor outscores Gordon in that offense. Gordon is going to be shaking off rust for at least a couple of games and Pryor looks like the real deal. At the very least, Pryor and Coleman (when healthy) are going to get targets.
ODB makes perfect sense given his behavior
I'm remote,so I can't quote specific target numbers...however, Baldwin emerged in 2H2015. Whatever clicked, clicked then between him and Russell. What I also remember about Baldwin was his target efficiency (along with TD's). To me, it just feels like he's continued along that 2H trendline.
I should have had him in my outside chance list, but my mind slipped when typing it. My biggest reason for not including him in my top 5 is that the run game looks really good with Campbell and Freeman and I just don't think he'll see the targets he usually does. Small sample size, but he only had two games last year with less than 10 targets. He already has three this year out of 3 games played. Could change but I think they run more this year.
It's all good. I'll look them up.
