[Scoresman]

This is good stuff. I didn't realize how much Dallas had. That just makes Ceedee, Ferguson, and even Zeke that much more attractive.

May I ask you to do incoming players also when you have some time?
The Titans have this massive influx with Boyd and Ridley and Pollard.
I'm thinking what did they get last year and what's this current chart show is available.

 

[massraider]

This is a Ladd McConkey thread.

I have been targeting the top 5 teams in the late rounds in my best ball drafts. Not because of this reason, but pretty wild it lines up that way.

All the vacated targets are already net of incoming FA signings & trades.

Look at the bottom of the table - Houston traded for S Diggs, Chicago signed K Allen, Titans acquired C Ridley.

The 9 teams with negative vacated targets = teams which acquired more targets than the vacated targets who left.

Thanks. I was looking “how are there negative vacancies?”

How does SF have 1 vacated target and 132 vacated yards? I thought the fields were 100 yards long?

Even in Canadian math it still doesn't add up.

 

[BobbyLayne]

For clarity (for the humorless folks who take everything literally), players leaving, by however means, are vacated targets and vacated yards. Those totals are vacated.

But incoming players means the market share will have to be shifted. Those players should be netted against (subtracted from) the vacated targets.

It’s awesome that Calvin is a Titan, Keenan gives Caleb an instant Top 5 target to go along with DJ Moore, and Stefon has a new welcome to wear out in Houston.

But there can only be so much variance in pass attempts year over year. The targets have to come from somewhere. We can’t just assume Nuk, DJ, Nico & Tank hold steady.

Also the chart does not account for incoming rookies. But it’s easy to see that McConkey & Coleman have great situations in terms of opportunity available; Worthy & Odunze, not so much.

Yes, those 2 definitely get a boost in terms of opportunity. In addition it doesn't hurt that they both have high end established QBs to work with.

Who they’re going to use in the big slot role a lot again. Last season:

• Slot 60.6%
• Wide 18.5%
• Inline 19.4%

Good stuff in here

 

[ahartig]

Shakir will be a top 12 wr

I think whoever put this together thinks Brandin Cooks is no longer on the team.

Cooks is a favorite sleeper of mine. Dak produces with anyone, and Lamb likely leads the NFL in catches, yards, and possibly hits. If Lamb goes down, Cooks is an every week start, with top-15 upside. Not bad for a guy often going as a WR5, who likely has good ROI even if Lamb repeats last year's numbers.

In a Best Ball format, especialy if you got Dak, he can give you some good weeks and be an ok pick even if Lamb is always available but in a league I got to set a lineup I'm always a lot more interested in other players going in his range and feel like he'll only pay off in this format if Lamb goes down. Seems like a player who has already been in a declining phase for the past two years to me and his age/years in the league don't jive will with some of the models I've seen recently with respect to turning back the clock, but instead suggest further decline.

I can see that argument a little, and I'm certainly not an advocate of 11th year players in general, but I think Cooks is a very unique case.

Cooks was a low-end WR3 last year, and his situation has only gotten better with Gallup/Pollard gone, and the defense likely to not be as dominant (just off regression to the mean) and Dallas isn't going to stop being 1 of the most pass heavy teams in the NFL.

Believe me, I'm not super excited about Cooks the player, and I agree he's not the playmaker he once was, but running the numbers, its really hard to not see him outproducing his ADP (WR59) and if Lamb goes down, to maybe be the steal of the draft. Which WRs going in his range do you like more? For me, the only WR going round 13, I can really see as better than him is Josh Palmer, but he doesn't have the contingent ceiling Cooks has, though he's likely more consistent.

 

[menobrown]

Which WRs going in his range do you like more?

I do agree with the contingent upside in event of a Lamb injury but to answer the question in the range he's going I prefer Juedy, Palmer, Shaheed and Dotson. Recent ADP data of FFPC full PPR redraft leagues I mainly play the they all go within a round of Cooks, the first two a little before, the second two right after.

If I"m not picking one of those 4 I'm probably going in another position in that range. About 20 drafts into the year and really can't recall picking any WR in that range other then those 4.
