After this week they play Mia, Indy, Cle and he'd seem to make an awesome WR4 covering up some byes. Get well soon, Corey.

Thanks. At this point I will take it.
2 glorious matchups left before the bye with Indy (MNF) and Cle. After the week 8 bye is probably more realistic at this point though.

No way I drop Clement this week. Smallwood is dinged up and might not play, Clement could see a nice uptick in touches and continue to earn a bigger role.
I think the bolded is accurate. He's not even started running yet so he has no shot of being ready in week 6 IMO and unless he's 100% for week 7 I just don't see how they can risk another setback. I'm managing my rosters on assumption he's good to go for week 9, not available until.
He's actually grown in value to me since he's been out due a variety of factors ranging from Decker no longer being viewed as major comp for targets and inconsistency with the running game. They absolutely need what he can provide them.

Agree with that. Decker and even Taylor seemed to be major threats to his targets, but even in a time of need neither has been a factor. Davis is gonna get fed when he gets in.

From a dynasty perspective, I certainly really prefer Davis to mike williams, but all the hate levied on williams about missing time and no one says anything about davis who's missed tons of time since being drafted and all the pre draft?
Decker has been poor. I think it's a comfort thing. He clearly has issues getting open and doesn't have a rapport with Mariota. MM8 spends an awful lot of time looking at Decker but he's not getting it done. Many of the throws look forced. Taylor is like the 5th or 6th option and barely getting looks. Robiske needs to pull Decker and put Taylor in his spot. The TEs and RBs can play the slot role for plays here n there if need be. One or two games of Decker in more of a part-time role could help him get comfy. 80%+ of the snaps is too much for a guy struggling. 50-60%.Hankmoody said:
Taylor was to be a key sub and would be used more. He isn't. Their offense has been stagnant and he's a human spark plug. There should have been this healthy rotation, but it's been mostly Decker and Matthews. Adoree hasn't played a snap on offense also.
When Davis returns, I'm not so sure Decker is going to be a key asset anymore.
I think he's a hold. I see him as a better prospect than Mike Williams, who they say is returning this week. Chargers have so many people to catch the ball. Titans have Rishard Matthews and Delanie Walker.
I'm sure one of Davis or Williams will blow up and have a great second half. Just trying to figure out who though... Right now my money is with Davis.

Im hoping for a surprise full practice report tomorrow but not expecting it.
I think Davis >>> Williams in redraft but I also don't expect to see Davis until after the week 8 bye.

I am going to go with yes. His college tape is sick and his week 1 tape isn't bad at all considering he had no camp to speak of.Ilov80s said:
Cassell couldn't get him the ball anyway so we're not missing anything until Mariota comes back healthy.

With you. One of the best college WRs I've ever seen. In redraft when is the time to buy?

I just picked him up as a stash. Hoping for the 2nd half of season immergence, after having lost OBJ. Got a decent crop of guys that I unfortunately can mix and match based on the weekly matchups.

Exact same position. Holding both but Davis would be the first to go.Been holding him and D. Henry since I can keep one next year if they remain on my roster all year...but these guys are really trying my patience as well tying down 2 important bench spots. I'm gonna have to dump one sooner than later.

Dynasty owner here and I'm THRILLED he's still being kept out. It's a hammy. Those almost invariably need a minimum of four weeks rest, and sometimes longer. Can't tell you the number of times over the years I've seen players dealing with this injury get trotted out too early only for them to aggravate the injury and go back to square one. Healthy and champing at the bit in week 9 after the bye week would be ideal. Patience, grasshopper.

He can't get it right. I saw a video of him using this machine which is essentially a treadmill in water. It's just bad luck at this point. They've got him working with a nutritionist and in that anti-gravity environment. He should be healed up. He's just not. We see guys like Fuller over the years that heal up super quick as pro athletes. Sometimes we forget some are slower than others too. The anti-gravity environment is the best and safest way to treat a leg muscle injury and rehab, it defies about every prob one could think of, and...just not healed up.Gandalf said:
Isaac Bruce had a ton of issues with hammies as a young WR. He also had an 1800 yard season then too. He married an olympic sprinter who helped him and the greatest show on turf Rams. The explosion of Olympic athletes is comparable to NFL skill position players. NFL teams used to stink at treating hammies but her and some of her Olympic trainer friends revamped the NFL's conditioning back then.
A few years ago, Chip Kelly unveiled this awesome new "sports science" machine that scans every player for heat and monitors them. Before a muscle is pulled, it often gets hot. When it shows up hot and prompts a warning, the Eagles could have a player stretch and stretch til the muscle cools down. Some teams have adopted some form of this technology.
The Titans and Preds purchased a 3D MRI machine. It's not like some common MRI we use at a hospital. They can literally see the muscle whenever they want.
Bruce's ex-wife really triggered some amazing developments as far as hamstring injury treatment, diagnosis, and prevention. The more ya read, the more it's like wow the NFL has come a long way in 20-25 years. It's still though that the bod needs to heal
Mularkey was asked if he hoped Davis could play next week and said he was. (This is being misreported as he may play and will play- as if Mularkey wouldn't be hopeful? Answer wasn't expected?)
He said they need the help and wouldn't sit him to get him extra time before the bye- shot down that theory

Dontae Stallworth comes to mind. Hamstrings killed that guys career.Dynasty owner here and I'm THRILLED he's still being kept out. It's a hammy.
