WR Justin Jefferson, MIN (1 Viewer)

He's on the bench right? These are critical weeks. Some points is better than what he is delivering

With St. Brown out and a poor Dallas D I have Jameson in right now instead of him
 
Got no choice but to keep putting him out there in one of my dynasty teams. Start 2 WR ( Rice and Lamb ) and 3 flex. Just don’t have the options due to injury and poor form. Same with Lamar in that team.

In one league, I also have no choice. In my other, I have plenty of options.

Last week was so bad that I'm actually considering JJ McCarthy being back a good thing. And he's been awful for JJ.

Justin Jefferson was pacing for 1,622 yards with Carson Wentz. His 13.7 fantasy points per game would be 9th among WRs.

Without Wentz, he’s pacing for 831 yards. His 8.6 fantasy points per game would rank 44th.

yeah

so who is playing him this week?

This question is NOT about who should I start instead, but rather, yeah, can he be started at all ??!!

Which sucks, because he's a great WR and seems like a really good dude off the field.
 
Not ideal for JJ right now, but I'd rather have McCarthy than Brosmer, or whatever his name is. I know that isn't saying much, but it is what it is.
 
He's unstartable. I know that's a hard decision but his ceiling really is about 12 points and his floor...well...I'm not even sure we have seen it
 
One of my favorite players in the NFL. This guy is not AJB. Not sure what’s up, but he’s not someone anymore should quit on.
 
How can I start this guy in 1st week of playoffs?
Never thought in million years I'd bench him,but might have too with almost anyone else.
 
If Jefferson can't get more than 7 -9 targets and a 6/70/1 type game,I'll be more than shocked.
Is McCarthy that scared to throw into coverage. I don't get why he doesn't look to Jefferson more.
Don't you want the ball in teams best players hands n let him make things happen.

Jefferson has the best playoff schedule for a wr anyone cld ask for.

Hope McCarthy FINALLY starts looking at Jefferson! Stop being so damn scared to turn dang ball over.

A back up can put up big numbers against Dallas. Let's freaking go McCarthy,get your head out of you no where and throw Jefferson the damn ball!!

But how can you start him at this point? Hope in the playoffs is a dangerous recipe

He will be on my bench this week for Jamo again

I'll take the 5pts of his floor to the zero of jefferson. I would literally start a warm body at this point

If I'm Bills GM Brandon Beane, I am offering three 1st round picks for Jefferson this offseason.

Win-win trade for both teams. Vikings need to do right by their superstar WR. Trade him to a place where he can actually utilize his talent.

First off - 3 first rounders for a WR is a franchise killer. Not that these guys grow on trees, but there are plenty of WRs that do what JJ does. Pickens might be a free agent.

Secondly, why would the Vikings be interested in "doing right by their superstar" by sending him away? They've already paid him.

You're forgetting one important factor: Not all 1st round picks are created equal. The Bills 3 1st round picks would be Picks 26-32. You're essentially getting 3 2nd-round talents.

Picks could be increasingly better though. Bills are probably a wildcard team going forward. Josh got married... turning 30... all it takes is one hit and they're picking in the top 10 again (at least for 1 year).

It's a gamble I would take if I were MIN. Look what just happened to IND... 2 first round pics for a CB... he's out, and now they have no future at QB. Back to square 1. Picks are gone.

The Colts were dumb because they were never 1 (overrated) CB away from a Super Bowl.

But you add Justin Jefferson to the 2026 Bills and beyond....and they are Super Bowl favorites for the next 5 years. 3 late Round 1 picks is worth the price to become Super Bowl favorites over a 5 year window.
 
The matchup is too good this week vs. Dallas, I'm rolling with him. I'm facing the best team in the league; I need a blowup game badly. Only viable options are Dowdle (timeshare), Terry (meh), or Andrews (same 2 pt floor as JJ). If my ship goes down this week then it does so with the captain standing on the deck...

5-yr Super Bowl favorites... just by adding a WR? You must be JJ's mom... or agent (or something).

Either that, or I guess I never realized how good Jefferson was at stopping the run.
 
I may not have a choice but to start him.

JJ at Dallas which should be a good matchup.
Wilson at Houston terrible matchup and is MHJ back? I also have Trey McBride.
Jamo at Rams Only one startable in this list?
Quentin Johnston at KC has no oline to give Herbert time to throw

Drake London OUT
Garrett Wilson OUT
