Here are the last 5 games for Gaffney:
7/69/2
14/213/0
3/34/1
2/15/0
12/140/0
That totals 38/471/3. Projected over a full slate of 16?
121/1507/10
Obviously Gaffney won't be posting those numbers this year, and I am not recommending trading Randy Moss for him. However, I am starting to think that Gaffney may very well put up respectable WR2 numbers this year. His numbers so far this year project to 90/1008/5. I don't think he'll hit the 90 reception mark, but I do think the 1000/5 numbers may be realistic for him.
I watched the Bronco game this weekend vs the Colts. I didn't think Maroney looked good at all. Same with Buckhalter. Moreno has two bad hamstrings, and was averaging 2.8 yards a carry before hurting the second one. Orton meanwhile, seems to be in command of this offense, and shockingly enough looking downfield more than I can ever remember. The Broncos don't have a viable pass catching TE at this point, so most of the yards are going to come from the WRs. There does appear to be pretty stiff competition among the WRs for targets, but Demaryius Thomas is still learning the playbook and how to play WR. So I think the majority of passing yardage is going to go to Royal/Gaffney/Lloyd. All three could be viable fantasy 2/3 WRs from here on out.
Thoughts?
