So I have a question I consider legitimate that I'd like to propose to those who claim that OBJ is right on pace to what he was last year (minus TDs), when he finished the season as a top WR:
Do you think there is a chance OBJ turns into today's version of Chad Johnson. Chad Johnson would finish in the top 10-15 WRs yearly it seemed in fantasy with total points, but if you owned him ever you know that he would go 3/30 for 13 weeks but then 3 random weeks he'd score 11/230/3, inflating his stats.
The last 2 years this was not the case for OBJ, but Chad Johnson wasn't always that kind of a WR either. In 2005 Chad Johnson had a similar year to what OBJ had last year, but in 2006 and 2007 he had a year similar to what I describe. After that the ship was going down and he continued to be streaky at best.
So at the end of the year, yeah his stats look great but how many weeks did he actually help versus hurt you in your lineup? Could be something to watch for. Some people like that kind of risk/reward. I prefer consistency myself.
I think these diva WRs have a tendency to self destruct (see: TO, Moss, Keyshawn, Chad Johnson). Hopefully OBJ just shuts everyone up this week and continues to do well weekly. Just posing a question for the sake of discussion
