Bump for what?
L. Evans 9 94 1Bump for what?
I forget the exact stats, but a lot of Evans's receptions have come when Buffalo is playing from behind.Which happens to be a reason that I disagree with Guru's prediction on Evans being all over the Lions this week. I'm seeing this as a game where the Bills get a lead early and maintain it. IOW, McGahee = strong start, Evans = weaker, but still a viable #3 or 4.
The logic is sound, but the conclusion is wrong. You see, I'm playing against Evans in 2 of my 3 leagues this week. Therefore, I expect him to blow up with 150 yards and 2 TDs.
I'm starting him this week (Jennings, MJones, and Edwards on bye, Roy injured). I'm down to ARE as my #4 if Roy is out, so it's more a matter of being thin this week than expecting Evans to produce.
I wrote that wrong, in a hurry. Evans is in, if Roy is out, ARE starts for me.I'm just not expecting a big week from Mr. Evans against the Lions. The game should be closer if Roy plays, which would lead to more passes to Evans (I think)
This is true, Lohsman has attempted signicantly more passes the past 3 weeks. Regardless, Lohsman targets Evans over 1/3 of the time Lohsman att Evans targets WK1 23 5WK2 18 6WK3 38 13WK4 32 9WK5 27 14
Maybe not for TDs, but only 5 other WRs have as many targets for the year with most of them coming the last 3 weeks, and his receptions are way up from weeks 1 and 2. Add a high reception %, and I like what I see. TDs will come soon. I actually think he is a great buy low because most people don't think he is doing anything due to his low TD total. Lee is ready to go off.
Could not agree more, if someone has a a chance to get him, do it.Maybe not for TDs, but only 5 other WRs have as many targets for the year with most of them coming the last 3 weeks, and his receptions are way up from weeks 1 and 2.

Totally agree eric - I'm an Evans owner in one league and have been extremely happy with his progress after a tough opening two games.My rolly eyes were to Turfpack, who recently acquired Evans for a backup defense (Philly), in what I considered an extremely lopsided trade in his favor, but no one else in the league understood how hot Evans is/was.Maybe not for TDs, but only 5 other WRs have as many targets for the year with most of them coming the last 3 weeks, and his receptions are way up from weeks 1 and 2.

I did in my dynasty league... Right after week 2, for cheap, and he's helped me rattle off 3 straight wins after a 0-2 start thanks to all kinds of injuries in the off-season, and through week 2...Could not agree more, if someone has a a chance to get him, do it.Maybe not for TDs, but only 5 other WRs have as many targets for the year with most of them coming the last 3 weeks, and his receptions are way up from weeks 1 and 2.

I think he's a must start most every week unless you are stacked at WR, or can start an RB in his place. I said this after week two, too. He had tons of targets in those early games and was real close to some TDs. Yeah, he'll have a relative stinker of a game, or two, but I really think he'll end up with 90+ receptions.
Depending on the size of the league, and your needs, if you have any use for the Deuce, I'd do it.If you're stacked at RB I may not, but for 99% of teams, it's a deal worth taking.
I'm starting him over Steve SMith in one league, and Keysahwn in another.I'm also a Lions season ticket holder and picked up Losman and playing Losman
Something we don't know? Granted, it's against the Ravens, but still, I'm thinking you may regret that (if he's healthy)I'm starting him over Steve SMith in one league, and Keysahwn in another.I'm also a Lions season ticket holder and picked up Losman and playing Losman
I'm not one to make many personal type posts, either, so I see what you're saying. I was looking for just that little nudge to get over the hump to pick him up. I'd done it prior to your post. Thanks!Evans is on our wire because we only have 5 bench spots and he was dropped after his Week 2 disappointment. With the week 6 and week 7 bye weeks, it looks like most of the teams in my league are scrambling for RB's, TE's (seems everyone is smart enough to only carry one), K's and defenses (again, everyone but 2 teams are only carrying one). Looks like Evans just slipped through the cracks.And, these guys aren't idiots...this is a 10 team, 2 player keeper, decent money and competitive. Weird things happen, though, with small benches.Now, should Derrick Mason be on the waiver wire...he's sitting there now.
In a 10-team 5-bench league, it's possible. I'd have to say Mason would probably be an improvement over some rostered player on one of the other nine teams though. You got a gem there with Evans.
He was on my ww also. I dropped him after week 2 and no one grabbed him. Luckily I was able to get him back. I had dropped him for Troy Williamson, and now have reversed that move.
