Based on the targets from week 1 you could play Skowerenk as he seemed to be a better option to Stafford.

I think the worry here is he becomes the scapegoat. Rams lost Week 1. Stafford, McVay, and company just won a Super Bowl last year.
If I know people like I think I do, there's always the tendency to blame the new guy. He better ball out next week or he's going to start getting Russell Westbrook treatment.

I watched people argue about this the morning after the game. And ultimately I think most agreed Stafford was complaining about the DB.
But what do I know. I’m just a nervous Arob owner trying to see the glass half full.

Earning a QB’s trust is something.

AROB had no chance to catch that ball. Stafford is a weasel!
I feel very encouraged after watching this film break down. Robinson was open all game. If a story broke that Stafford had a prop bet on on a Kupp over and a Robinson under I would believe it. I’m concerned that Stafford can’t make all the throws. I’m very concerned about that offensive line. Stafford was obviously flustered by the bills and started to see ghost’s.

During the game I remember seeing Robinson wide open on a shallow crossing route when Stafford rolled right. What does Matt do? Try to outrun two defenders closing in on him. I swear Matt must be in a fantasy league going up against a guy starting ARob week 1.
I’d buy low if the ARob owner is skittish. Feels like the Rams weren’t as prepared or hungry as Buffalo. They’ll turn it around. Akers on the other hand, looked real bad with his limited chances. Couldn’t even throw a block to protect his QB.

There were several times where Stafford was looking right at a wide open Robinson and then went another way. The good news is that Robinson looked fine and is certainly not washed. The bad news is that it's possible that Stafford doesn't trust his arm.
If this happens again there is something funky going on. I think Robinson is going to have a big week.

That’ll do. 5 targets isn’t much but he did a great job with them

You just literally described 90% of Fantasy WR1s let alone WR2/FLEX guys
To be clear, I don't think anyone in here is implying Arob is going to be a stud Fantasy WR.... at least they shouldn't be. His ADP is WR21. That means he's got to be a low end WR2 or solid Flex to pay off at ADP. Anything above that is a bonus. Last year's HORRIBLE numbers, normalizing Catch rate (was playing with a terrible rookie QB) and TDs (Rams O >> Bears O) and he would have been around WR32.
GIven the significant investment in money, the FAR superior offense, the gushing coachspeak, the film of him still getting separation, etc.... I think it's pretty safe to assume Arob will pay off at ADP with a reasonable chance he over-delivers as WR15ish performance ROY.
If the owner is panicking and the price is right... swipe him. I've only got one share but I'm looking to get more at the right price.
PPR ADP: WR21
Week 2: WR23 (and not from garbage time) --- Had the 2nd TD not been called back, he would have been a WR1.
We're warming up a bit, as expected.

Wow you’re trying to help out after a horrible performance that 30M people witnessed? Can I pay you for this timely analysis.
Bro, have fun with your WR that has only eclipsed 1,000 yards in 3 of 8 seasons. I don't need to argue anything else beyond that. Have fun with your dud, I'm just trying to help out.
It is apropos for somebody who is actually being a bad person to try and transpose his behavior onto others. Your one little comment here is way ruder than anything I've posted in this thread, but somehow you'll convince yourself that I'm bad guy.
Stu/Eminescence... out of curiosity, which of @Capella's two quotes above are so rude they have you upset and playing the victim?

Yeah, it’s possible he’s warming up. He had 2 targets on the first drive, that seemed pretty promising. Then only got 3 more the rest of the game. It doesn’t scream confidence. But hey, if you drafted him, then he probably needs to be in your lineup.You just literally described 90% of Fantasy WR1s let alone WR2/FLEX guys

Looks like you spotted me 6 games now.LOCKED.Good luck, homie, this will certainly add some thrill to this argument. Hopefully Van actually plays next week or else I've spotted you a free game.
I'll send you a PM with my personal Facebook page so you can hunt me down there and harass my family if I welch on you, lbs.

Is he droppable? Feels like the ultimate roster clog. Worst fourth round pick in recent memory for me. Took him over waddle, ajd, other young ascending talents. Yikes!!

Needed a decoy to get some open looks for Kupp.

Probably the most likely explanation. Or that he got paid and doesn’t have much motivation (see Golladay, Kenny)

This offense just looks broken with the bad O-line. 14 targets for Tyler Higbee oof.

When I see him out there, he moves actively with audibles, exerts a lot of effort out there, and just looks like a smart football player still. But he's not schemed the ball and Stafford doesn't really look past his read to get to A-Rob.
Think A-Rob could still be a good player if they get him on slants, screens, end arounds, use his physicality.
I don't think he would be a full-time player right now if he was trash or didn't give a ****. It looks like he does out there.
Anyways, I'm dropping off of all rosters this week. The offense needs to change drastically, but until then, he has no value. McVay is too stubborn to deviate from his playbook.
They're also missing speed and a clear out guy. There's literally 8 guys in the box almost at all times lol

Glad I faded this guy. To those that still were putting him in your lineups. He’s done now right? And he’ll have a big game one of these days …. And then he’ll clog your lineup again with a dud …. Trade or release would be my plan.

I kept as optimistic as possible with him. I drafted Kirk so I was able to be patient with Robinson on my bench after his week one dud. This was the first game I saw him since week 1. Completely uninvolved. It just didn't happen this season and I completely whiffed on that pick. Passed on guys like St. Brown and Waddle too. Welcome to dropsville.

I plan on dropping him hoping there are guys like you that will blow their FABB budget.
Be sure to cut Pitts too since they have had identical seasons.

He’s won a Super Bowl and has been to another in the last 4 years. He probably has a handle on what he’s doing.

I don’t own Pitts across my leagues. But I might consider it in redraft, if I did have him. Spending other guys FABB money, I am big fan of this strategy.
I also traded away A Rob in the summer for a future 2nd. Many thought I gave him away for nothing. Truth is, that was the best offer I got and I am and was happy with that deal.
Dr. Octopus
Footballguy
It’s a trap.
I don't disagree with your last statement, but IMO if you invested a 3-5th round pick on ARob or Pitts you should hold and find someone us on your bench to cut.
candian fantasy guy

I used to do that as a strategy. I still do at times, but I watched this movie last year with R Woods and I am also a Bears fan that has watched A Rob a whole freaking bunch. I am not a believer.
