Late Late round WR flyers (1 Viewer)

I drafted TO.

I'm curious about Kevin Ogletree. Think he has a chance to be the #3 WR in Dallas - any Cowboys homers agree/disagree? He went undrafted, so I can pick him up dropping TO. Robinson did OK from the DAL #3 spot last year and with Austin's balky hamstrings, the opportunity exists again....

 
I got Alshon Jeffery late in both drafts. Britt went super late in both too. Figured even with all the issues, Britt's top 5 ability is worth a gamble that late.

I watched him at Virginia and he was a strong receiver in a mediocre/poor offense against ACC competitionI thought he would translate well to NFL, but watching 'boys games last year, it's clear he hasn't. I like Harris, Coale and Holmes better if you want to take a flyer on the cowboy wr situation.
 
Ogletree makes too many mental mistakes to be reliable. Holmes is too raw. Coale missed too much practice to make a difference this year.

Cole Beasley is a possibility as an Amendola type. Harris maybe but I can't see spending a pick on him.

Two guys I target now that TO is gone are

Steve Smith STL

Louis Murphy CAR

In two of my recent drafts, he slid in one and went early in another. Is there a hearing scheduled for suspension or just speculation at this point? I can't imagine the league not doing anything having been arrested for his 8th time in 3 years, but who knows. As I understand it he's also on the PUP list. Does that automatically mean he can't play for the first 6 games of the season and any suspension would be tacked onto that?

He's not on active/PUP

Rotoworld says that Britt is expected to be taken off the Camp/PUP list this week. Any suspension should be announced soon. Probably no more than 3 weeks. If he is not suspended, sounds like the Titans plan to get him in for 10-15 plays Week 1. www.rotoworld.com/recent/nfl/5130/kenny-britt
 
For some unknown reason I took Sydney Rice. I have no idea why. Jeffrey was there who I like a LOT better. Anyone out there think Rice is even worth a roster spot?

 
Alshon Jeffery and sometimes Kendall Wright are guys I've grabbing with one of my last few picks if they are still available.

EG, The late WR to have in Dallas is Dwayne Harris imo. I think he ends up with a bigger role than Ogletree. YIC, Teat

I do. Rice will be the #1 receiver in SEA (for what that's worth).Jeffrey is behind Marshall and Forte, and possibly others.Rice is on my late-round WR list. Two others are Steve Smith STL and Emmanuel Sanders PIT. With Sanders: No Hines Ward. No big TE threat for targets. Wallace holding out. RB issues means lots of passing.This time last year, Sanders and Antonio Brown were kinda coinflips as to who would break out.

I agree with all of these.. Sanders is in both my leagues on the waiver.. i am just waiting to hear any news on Mike Wallace before pulling the trigger... if Wallace does come back before season starts.. i think Sanders has value in the first few weeks until Wallace gets game ready, and i would say there is a good chance even if he does come back that he might pull a "hammy" so definitely value with Sandersother guy I think has a lot of potential is "Stephen Hill" .. he looked beastly last night, and could very easily be the #1 WR on NYJ, with Holmes as more of the slot guy
 
I grabbed both Jon Baldwin & Rod Streater late. Figure I'll have someone to drop w/out much hesitation when working the waiver wire in a few weeks.

 
I grabbed Austin collie with my last pick in a draft yesterday. If he is cleared and plays he can be a wr3 or better for the price of a bag of peanuts.

Thanks pal, I will file this information away for future use....

I love Streater, i think if they are game planning for him already there is a good chance he is going to be there possession type guy, which automatically gives him value...the issue of course is all the other WR talent they have there... D.Moore, Heyward Bey, Ford (when healthy).. etc.if the right cirumstances arise in the WR corps of Oakland meaning injuries which is very likely given there history, and current injuries to Ford and Moore, I think this guy has a great chance to be a great WR #4 in ppr formats

Eddie Royal or Donnie Avery.Collie, Jeffrey, and especially LaFell shouldn't be there as last round picks generally.
Collie's ADP is 143, Lafell's is 198 and Jeffery's is 207.That means Lafell and Jeffery are going in the 16th/17th round in a 12 team draft. Seems like the last rounds to me. Collie would be the 12th, so not quite as late, but still pretty late.
 
Stephen Hill
This is the money shot. Ability + opportunity = "decent" in NYJ world. As a Jets fan, I know two things (1) they will be playing from behind and (2) Sanchez can sling it. You are going to see D-Jax-esque numbers from him (i.e. low receptions, big gains). At some point, they have so many injured, it has to fall in his hands.

LaFell is being way under valued then and should be the pick.
 
Rueben Randle is my pick. Hixon is probably the biggest threat for the #3WR, but he's an injury waiting to happen and Randle is more talented. Particularly with the Giants TE issues, their #3WR can have some value this year. Randle also has high upside potential if something happens to Cruz or Nicks.

 
Andre Roberts

Steve Smith

Braylon Edwards? - I still think Sidney Rice has a shot at a comeback, but if he's injured again...

 
A lot of good options posted here. I took a chance on Vincent Brown and Steve Smith (STL) late in my draft, Brown looked like a jackpot until he broke his ankle last week. He is suppose to be back later in the year so for dynasty and keeper leagues I still believe he is a good one to own.

Riley Cooper is one that isn't mentioned. He is doubtful for the beginning of the season, but he will make a splash once he gets on the field, especially if Maclin or DJ misses any time again this year. I also like the Hixon mention above, I don't know what's with the guy but he did show quite a bit of skills before Nicks and Manningham came along.

 
dexter 'the touchdown buster' mccluster

MARK IT DOWN!!

and he's currently rb in yahoo, but they'll probably rejigger his kajigger

also, simpson, but I wasn't sure if he was low enough to count.
