I mean in redraft. He’s already on my dynasty roster and I’m holding there.

I’m a fan. He might be the best WR from Ohio State this year.

Not much. They had to add SOMEbody
Negative especially in the context of you removed a field stretcher in DK and adding another WR that will condense the field.

Who is OC in Seattle? Legit Question. Hard to keep track on all the coaching carousel changes…
Will Kupp be used for more Walker/Charb runs in a Run First offense scheme?
Kupp was very run blocker on screens & RB in the flat IIRC.
So depending on OC schemes, yes it could impact JSN but not in the target volume concerns unless Darnold works magic with Kupp

I think they have a plan. There is no reason to panic on JSN.
JSN creates his own space and is an elite route runner. JSN will get his. I would see this as an opening to trade for JSN. The only risk I see here is Sam Darnold, and I think he is a capable QB, so I'm not overly worried. You can not predict how two players mesh, and there is always a chance Darnold won't mesh with JSN or any receiver. You don't know till you know.

The guy who annoyed a lot of Olave owners last year by featuring ,or at least running an offense that threw to Shaheed more then Olave in their games together.

His route tree is expansive and we all saw it last season when DK was unavailable. With DK out of the way JSN can easily be deployed at X and be very productive.
He might be but I still don't view losing DK and gaining Kupp as a net positive. He'll carry a lot more unknowns in general then most of the top 15 or so WR's when you add in the unknown impact of new QB and new OC and to me more unknowns equal maybe a bigger reward but also increased odds of disappointing.
All that being said I got him just outside the top 12 WR's, not far. I'm not eviserating his value, it's just a little down to me from where we started this off-seaon.
Real life recent redraft example. I'm in a slow draft right now with a 6 hour clock, drafting from the 2 hole and on deck for my pick in round 2. Team picking 3 had been OTC for a few hours the night they signed Kupp. I went into my queue and put in 5 players, knowing I was guaranteed to get two of these players with my second and third round picks. JSN was in that list for me. When I saw they signed Kupp I pulled him out of the list but he'd only have been moved back like 3 players. I'm not doing full on rankings right now but looking at my draft board I'd probably list him as WR14.

I can't help but think of Amon-Ra St. Brown's career trajectory when I think of JSN.
After his 2nd season, ARSB had established himself as a legit #1 WR, but as I recall...the draft community somewhat undersold him a bit as his TD production was not great (11 thru 2 seasons). But Year 3 saw him become the go-to WR in that offense. While that was Laporta's rookie season, the WR2 in that offense was Josh Reynolds.
I do wonder if we see the same jump for JSN, a similarly sized and profiled player.

No Metcalf. No Lockett. Dudes gonna have a million targets. Gonna also start getting serious attention from defenses. He is good enough to overcome that. I'm penciling him in as a top 10 wr this year.
