Interested to know what the thoughts are on his prospects

His last 2 healthy seasons were

63/768/3

70/862/2

Then of course the monster 2009 where he was on pace for 80+/1000+

Last year he clearly took a while to get fully healthy then came on strong down the stretch

I think is a bit of boom or bust (inj) pick with the only real ? if he's healthy being his TD output

Are others down on him for reason's other than injury risk?

Wood and Dodds have him projected for 48/600 & 56/700 in 16 games respectively

How can his be - either he doesn't make 16 games or he catches at least 70 passes doesn't he? (Even last year he got 38 grabs in 11 games, in several of which he hasn't healthy at all and that prorates to 55rec)

I believe he really isn't injury prone although he's had multiple knee injuries I believe this was his first in the NFL , I could be mistaken,,, Owen will have a good year there is too much on that offense for d to key in on him, he will be relied upon just as much or even more so since fosters breakout ,,, excellent buy low /draft late te imo i don't do projections but id say he'll be healthy and put up top 5-7te #s

No, you're right. I saw someone in another thread call him "oft injured" or something to that effect.He's only had one injury in the NFL. Though he has blown out an ACL two other times previous to be drafted in the NFL, and his one NFL injury took a significant amount of time to recover. That said, the guy is money when healthy, and he is now healthy. There is no reason to think he's any more prone to injury than any other player in the NFL, so it's like he will be a true value in FF drafts.
