I started Likely, Kmet, and Irv in my three leagues last weekend.
I know the game conditions were that of a monsoon in the second half, but still.....um 1 target? I'm a big believer in Kmet, and that situation but I can't keep getting zeroes either. Winning week 2 is just as important as winning week 13 at the end of the day.
If I had to pick one side that will be disappointed, I'd say it's among those that are running up that Hill. Stranger things have happened though.
That's funny; cuz it's true.
Right. But again, I don’t think anyone is taking Hill with the expectation that he’s going to be a fantasy savior at TE. But it’s the slight possibility that he could be, at a pretty unexciting position, that has owners taking the chance on him.
Not really sure how you can say that. We don't exactly know his specific role yet. If he continues to get consistently weekly looks as a rusher/receiver what are his chances at 700 all-purpose yards and 10+ TDs?
Pretty good? I mean we have a long history of the saints using him in all kinds of ways. It stands to reason they are going to want to keep him on the field, he’s definitely one of their best playmakers. He had over 500 total yards and 9 touchdowns in 2020 and Payton still had him playing QB then. If he’s focused exclusively on whatever role this is, it could increase.
You said it yourself. We don't know his role.
Exactly my point. If he's around 700 AP yards and 10 TDs he's right at the top 5 TEs in standard if not probably 3rd behind Kelce/Andrews.
I didn't say I was expecting it. I said you pick him up hoping that he can keep up with those top guys. If they're deploying him inside the 10 every week he's a goal-line vulture that you can start at TE.
Nice avatar. Kamara seems to be a little dinged so maybe an even better chance Hill is involved in short yardage and red zone.
Has he scored a TD in 50% of his games where he wasn't the starting QB?
Isn't it though? When he's healthy, the Saints have always found ways to get him involved haven't they? He makes plays whether he's a WR, RB, QB or TE. I'm seriously considering starting him over Frieiermuth. I haven't gone back and looked at all the stats from years past, but I can't remember many times that he played and wasn't a part of the game plan.
He was playing QB last year exclusively so maybe that's not the best comp. 2020, when he was more of the hybrid player that he is playing now, he had 8 rushing TD's, 1 receiving TD and 4 passing TDs. Maybe saying "the norm" isn't the best way to put it, but when he plays, he makes a bunch of positive plays.
I definitely don’t think week 1 is the norm. I drafted Kittle and made little to no provisions for a decent backup TE. I have Hunter Henry level options. Think Hill is generally comparable with the possibility of tossing a TD or running one in
So...you're that guy that goes into a Saquon Barkley thread and then tries to crap on everyone's dreams?
Sorry I thought we were allowed to discuss player’s fantasy value in here. Sorry I hurt your feelings - and won’t post anything negative in here again. Maybe I’ll stop posting at all - so I don’t take up bandwidth from glorious posters like yourself, with all your great insights.
To be fair, he does smoke a lot of ganja.
I appreciate the opposing viewpoint to keep me grounded. Like I said I’m super excited about his prospects-it’s more of a calculated risk with upside
Same. I second, third and fourth guess my self all the time. Usually to the detriment of my team.
No idea what the various FFL services will do.
Not in any league that's worth anything. I think ESPN was the only site to allow it last year, and they're trash.
They’re all wasted.
Are you sad today?
Andy Dalton is the backup QB.
