TJ Housh moving forward? (1 Viewer)

Pretty simple really. Stands a legit chance at finishing as the #1 fantasy WR in PPR formats.

Pretty damn good in non-PPR leagues as well.

 
TJ is averaging 9.75 rec & 90 yds per game. He also has caught a TD in every single game this year (and 2 in one of those).

He is the beneficiary of playing on a team with a poor defense, a great WR on the other side that commands attention and a great QB. He wouldn't be this good anywhere else but Indy. He could be the #1 on a lot of teams, but on Cincy this year he is top 3 in PPR and top 10 in non-PPR. A 9.23 yards per catch average is pretty low, but when you get over 9 per game it doesn't matter. He'll have some games where he only has 4/40 and no TD's, but that would be a bad game.

I expect him to finish with 110 rec, for 1,050 yds & 11 TD's. A great season and possible top 3. That team will be throwing early and often every game and they are good at it. The only thing that stops him is an injury to him, Ocho or Carson.

 
Play him quick. I own him, which means he probably has at most two quarters left in him before he's out for the season...

 
I honestly can only think of one other WR that I would start with more confidence right now - and that would be Randy Moss.

This would be a pretty disappointing stat line at the end of the season, given what he has done so far. That would mean he only gets appx 700 more yards, 70 more catches, and 6 more TDs. Spread that over 12 games, and it's not top 3 material.That's my concern with the guy. He's on pace right now for absolutely extraordinary numbers. 156 catches, almost 1600 yards, and 20 TDs. He's bound to slow down for 2 reasons - 1 - the return of Chris Henry will eat into his targets, and 2 - he HAS to.

So while I love his production, he almost seems like a sell high guy for the reasons I have laid out. Thoughts?

I agree, but there might not be a return of Chris Henry:
Chris Henry-WR-Bengals Oct. 9 - 4:20 pm et

Bengals WR Chris Henry was in a Florida courtroom Tuesday for violating his probation.

Currently halfway through an eight game suspension, Henry risks having his reinstatement application rejected if he indeed violated terms of his probation. Owners should wait for more news, but he's not worth hanging on to if this proves serious.

This year 1050 and 11 TDs isn't sniffing top 3 this year. Housh will do better then that.

That's a very good point, but who would you sell him for?

This year 1050 and 11 TDs isn't sniffing top 3 this year. Housh will do better then that.
My initial numbers were much higher, but I just don't see this pace as possible for the entire season.The weather will get colder, teams will game plan better and Housh WILL have some bad games...as will every other receiver out there. (see Moss & Owens week 5 numbers)110 rec's would have been tops last year and only 2 WR's had more than 10 TD's last year.Anyone who is looking at the WR stats in weeks 1-4 and expecting that to last the season are in for a rude awakening.

Rude awakening or not, this owner isn't selling unless it is for Moss, Palmer, Brady, or Manning and in PPR I may still hold :rolleyes:
 
Carson is on pace for about 100-150 more yds than last year and 2 more TDs. So far he's more productive than he was with Henry in the lineup last year.

CJ is is on the same pace yardage wise as last year, but with more TDs.

Cincinatti is 1-3. Their defense stinks. To win they are going to have to score more than they are doing already.

The return of Henry should allow Cincinatti to put up more points and, if they are lucky, win more games. I don't see him necessarily cutting into TJ's and CJ's numbers, but adding to them. They'll need the extra firepower (notice that Carson is on a faster pace than he was last year w/o him and they are still losing) to start competing.

Edit: Someone may want to quickly check those #s I put up there to make sure they are accurate, didn't have a whole lot of time write this.
