Ive said multiple times i thought the success or lackbof hinged on cobb staying or leaving.Your second statement is whats silly. To say that two other players played into wr1 territory so a 3rd player obviously will too is hopefulness at best. I personally think you believe that any ARod WR = WR1, and while they certainly have a headstart on other WRs, its not a guarantee.Who said Cobb is definitely staying? That's still up in the air.Well, im not sure what youre basing this off of (ARod at qb?) but, no, sorry, not either way.How on earth do you expect the 3rd wr in an offense to have WR1 upside? This is assuming cobb stays.Either way, he has WR1 upside.Idk if he has that talent or not, my point was, if cobb stays, not a great move. If he goes, has a chance to be a lot better.Adams isnt taking anything over due to talent. Its a money issue, imo. Can GB afford to keep cobb, or will Adams get a bump in responsibility by virtue of cobb being gone?I think Adams absolutely has WR1 upside. He's looked pretty good lately and he could be taking over the role that Cobb just put WR1 numbers up in as soon as next year.I think i like the allen side. He still had a zillion targets, he has wr1 upside.Not sure you can say the same about anyone else in this exchange.FFDude23 said:12 team ppr
A gets: Keenan Allen + Markus Wheaton
B gets: Davante Adams + Charles Johnson + Da'Rick Rogers
A finished with pick 1.02 in 2014 and is building.
B finished with pick 1.10 in 2014 and was a contender all year
Could be a pretty solid deal if cobb leaves and teddy targets johnson like he was at the end of last year tho
This is silly. If Adams doesn't have WR1 upside then Jordy and Cobb didn't either. All three were drafted in the 2nd round for the Packers with two starters in front of them. Of course, Jordy and Cobb are both WR1's now, so it seems rather crazy to say that neither of them had WR1 upside.
I honestly don't see how this is even debatable. The entire reason that Adams is even rostered in fantasy football leagues is because of his WR1 upside.
It's debatable because we disagree. It's debatable because you think that a wr3 has wr1 potential and would rather gamble on him either being a wr3 at least one more year, or him inherit a wr2 role, over a player that is easily the most targeted and talented on his team.
You would rather have a 22yo that might eventually get opps as opposed to a 22yo that is going into season 3 and is a lock to get opps.
This is the debate and we are on different sides of it.
Believe me, i see your point about Adams, but right now its all potential and nothing has been proven. People are down on Allen cuz he had a slow stretch and was drafted high. Adams doesnt have as many people to disappoint. So next year when he maybe goes 50/600/6 people will see it as a success.
