The #3 WR poll may have been flawed with not enough selections, but I think here on the board at least, the #1, #2 and #3 WRs (Watkins, Evans and Lee, in that order) are consensus. We will see if they actually go in that order in the draft.

bicycle_seat_sniffer alluded to this being the branching point where things get more interesting. A half dozen choices are included in this poll, to amend the first poll's limitations and oversight.

I have to say I really like the game of Beckham and Cooks, than my interest is most piqued by Benjamin and Robinson next. We already have somewhat covered the former two in the first thread, so hopefully others can expand on the remaining WRs.

As Sweet Love also alluded to in the other thread, the talent of some of these WRs could be close enough that their dynasty rank could be influenced heavily by destination. The advantage to looking at them more closely now is that the breakdown is based purely on talent. When the later inevitable talent and opportunity tradeoff decision is made, it could be better informed on the talent side.

Beckham and Cooks both have as many or more votes as the next closest WRs Benjamin and Mathews, combined.

A highly graded big WR generally trumps shorter, smaller WRs. But if the bigger WR has rumblings about how his overall skill set will translate, the preference seems to be for the more dynamic, explosive smaller WR.

Beckham still comfortably in the lead for #4 WR, but Mathews has made a comeback and closed the gap with Cooks.
