Curious to hear the pool's opinion of this guy. I personally think he is one of the best route runners in the league right now.
Does the pool still think he lives off Nicks coat tails as was argued a lot last season, or does anyone else see the crisp and precise routes that I see?
I will concede he is a slot guy and that is where he excels, but I think he helps his team (in real life) no matter who is on the outside. I say this because when Nicks is out he draws the double and allows the second stringers to excel in there starts. This is why he always gets the targets from Eli. If you are like me in your fantasy evaluation, then targets are what you look for in your evaluation of who you target in drafts.
I personally only play in 1 league (getting older and can't afford the time for the 5 or 6 I used to), but that is a semi-dynasty auction league that I commish. I specifically targeted him prior to draft for a trade after I watched his work from last year closely. This guy is, in my humble opinion, the 3rd best route runner i've seen in my 15 years in fantasy when I actually watched individual isolation videos of players (modern technology kicks butt
)
I will concede he has more opportunities when Nicks is on the field, but he allows Nick's backups the opportunity when Nicks is not on the field (which is often unfortunately)to work with single coverage... often times giving more chances deep for Eli as a safety is always hedging shallow on him.
Am I just suffering from a mancrush or do you footballguys see what I see?
