Agree.
Only issue for him is health. THey do so many quick screens to him. He gets battered more than your average WR.

The Ravens are happy that Nip Tuck was cancelled. ARod Caves. Vegas discovers that Geno was a bad bet. Kittle, Laporta and Hockenson make Noah Fant owners wonder what the hell happened to him.

This is my nomination for BOLDEST prediction.

Maybe not too bold but
Everyone's preseason darling, Denver, gets 5 wins or less games as the league catches up to Nix.
Tua goes on season ending IR and McDaniels gets fired the week after.
A qb not on the currently on the roster starts 3+ games for the Colts.
Josh Allen will get hurt on a superman run and miss at least 4 games.
Tee Higgins outscores Chase in FF after finally staying healthy all year.
Cin leads the league in yards and points for and against. Five games where both teams score over 40 points.
More -
Garrett Wilson leads the league in targets with Nabers a very very close second.
Barkley regresses in all rushing and receiving stats, but gains additional TDs as the Eagles call more fakes out of the Tush Push formation. He ends up number 1rb.
CMC doesn't follow his good year/hurt year pattern and instead has another hurt year. Only this time he doesn't go on IR and you need to play a guessing game as to how many snaps he gets each week.
KC comes out slinging the ball and Mahomes starts the year on the same kind of "if he passes for X amount of yards for the rest of the season he's going to smash the record!" excitement that surrounded the start of his career. Those Miami guys wait a long time to drink champagne.
Calvin Ridley is either a top ten wr or benched by mid season. There's no middle ground.

Moss leads CIN in rushing with about 800 yds.
Jordan Love, Caleb Williams, Sam Darnold and CJ Stroud end the season with major question marks. Maye, Penix and Ward outperform. Lawrence, Murray, Herbert and Hurts stay what they are.
Rhomondre Stevenson gets cut as Antonio Gibson has a career year at a cheaper price.
Carolina goes to the playoffs as Dave Canales wins COTY.
HOU will not win the AFC South.
Winston takes over for Wilson early and Slayton/Hyatt have monster weeks as Nabers gets peppered consistently.
CLE isn't horrible and plays the AFC North tough, going 3-3.
The Chargers, Broncos and Raiders beat-up the Chiefs as Pat and Andy miss the playoffs for the 1st time together. Chargers/Raiders-Harbaugh/Carroll rekindled bigly.
Detroit is still too much for the 2nd place Vikings in the NFC North.
Calvin Austin does well in a Randall Cobb role w/ Rodgers. DK Metcalf has an Adam Lazard role. There is no Davante/Jordy here.
Allen and Fields both out-rush Hall.
*Bonus: The new NLFPA contract will allow 18 games but all Thursday/mid-week games must follow a bye week.

They just gave RS a sizable contract with a lot guaranteed. I’m not sure they save anything by cutting him, so the math doesn’t math on this one.

I suddently got the feeling I need a shower after reading that bold prediction.
Proteus

Puka will get enough defensive attention to make D.Adams have the easiest time he's ever had getting open with the best QB he's had in years.
Then when Puka inevitably misses 3-4 games, the uptick in targets will keep feeding the glut, just in a more familiar WR1 Davante Adams kind of way.
As long as the price stays put or drops, I will own a ton of Adams this year.
I assumed you were predicting a start by a Zombie QB, which is bold, glad to hear he is still slingin it

I remember years after he retired, I believed it was Bobby Bethard, wanted to sign him. Bill Belichick called him the best passer he ever saw and that included Tom Brady.
Jameson Williams finishes second in the NFL in receiving yards.
JaMarr Chase has more than 2000 receiving yards.
Aaron Rodgers struggles and retires before midseason.
Anthony Richardson rushes for more than 1000 yards.
The Carolina Panthers will make the playoffs.
The Las Vegas Raiders finish second in the division and make the playoffs.
The Cincinnati Bengals win more games than any team in the NFL.
The Washington Commanders miss the playoffs.

As a Bengals fan, I love this. But what this actually means is that the Bengals will be removed from the NFL. Because they can't win more games than themselves.

Michael Mayer comes to life in Chip Kelly’s offense and finishes in the top 15 TEs
Jaylin Noel finishes the season as the Texans’ go-to WR2 ala Dell’s rookie year
Colston Loveland’s presence unlocks Cole Kmet as the go-to in the Bears offense
Travis Hunter creates Jalen Ramsey level vibes and distractions in Jax so bad they show buyer’s remorse by end of season
The Houston Texans finally overcome their woes and go into KC and beat Mahomes in the AFCCG
The Dallas Cowboys shock the world in somehow finding a way to beat the Rams in the NFCCG
Houston wins its first Super Bowl in an all-Texas showdown ; Jerruh spins the loss as a win

The Browns fan that has a list of failed QBs on the back of his jersey dating back to the last time they had a good one suffers a serious injury after new additions to the list cause him to trip over on it

I feel the opposite, except for Puca missing a few games(he plays hard). Teams will cover Adams, he isnt getting 1on1 with some mid level CB very often.
I do think Adams is a fine pick, but Puca will eat, a lot, they get him open, McVay knows.
I am more curious how they use Ferguson at TE. How much PT, how many targets, red zone option....

AAron leads Steelers to division title and a playoff win for the first time in 9 yrs. They still lose to the better teams like KC or Buff in the next round. But AAron goes out on a higher note than in NYJ. Metcalf has career year.

Well I'm glad I can be the first in here to boldly predict this one; active board members can already predict where I'm going here lol:
Trevor Lawrence passes for 4000+ yards and 30+ TDs and finishes a top 6 QB
I'll add in a few more for fun though:
Cam Skattebo takes over the Giants backfield, finishes a top 16 RB and finishes 2nd only to Jeanty for OROTY
Brock Bowers finishes outside the top 5 TEs and has the worst ADP vs outcome disparity in fantasy outside of injured players
Much like fans wanted Fournette benched for White, and then White benched for Bucky, this year they want Bucky benched for Tucker. Bucky finishes outside the top 20 RBs and Tucker finishes inside the top 24 RBs absolutely crushing his ADP and is considered THE sleeper/waiver pickup of the season
Bryce Young takes another step forward, but rather than Tet being the spark the offense needed, it's their TE. Tet is a disappointment and misses his low end WR2 ADP expectation. Meanwhile Ja'Tavion Sanders blows by TE29 ADP and finishes a top 10 TE.
Ricky Pearsall finishes a top 20WR not only becoming the feature receiver in SFs offense while Aiyuk is out, but he never cedes the role back even when Aiyuk returns. His ADP goes from round ~7 WR45 this year to round 3 ~WR23 next year.
Cowboys not only make the playoffs, but win in the playoffs for the first time since 2022. Dak is named comeback player of the year.
Rome Odunze leads the Bears in receptions and yardage. DJ Moore is phased out of the offense by mid-season and creates drama via sideline antics/negative quotes in the press/requesting a trade
