WR Romeo Doubs, GB (2 Viewers)

[ffmail4me]

decided to play Terry McLaurin over him...I'm sure I'll chose wrong but I'm locked and loaded

That's bold IMO.

I think Washington is going to have to throw the win today. And I do think Terry is special. Plus if I'm defending Packers today, with no Watson and no Jones, I'm shutting down Doubs and make them have someone unknown step up and beat me.

Could be a good Jayden Reed day if he’s available in your leagues as a preemptive pickup for next week. I’ve stashed him where I can.

 

[urbanhack]

bump...no comments...really?

9 catches on 13 targets. Didn't see the game. Any thoughts going forward?

 

[GPS]

I thought he looked really good. Gets open and catches the ball. Love seems to trust him to make catches in tight windows. I can't imagine he disappears when Watson's 100% back.

The targets are there, which is what I love to see out of my WRs even if they aren’t flashy. His targets drastically increased in week 3 and 4 to 12 and 13.

I keep finding ways to not start him. But he keeps putting up points on my bench. Not necessarily a bad thing, but in PPR I gotta find a way to get him in my lineup it seems.

Jefferson and Puka over him at WR and Kamara and Ford in over him at flex.

 

[TLEF316]

almost played him in my PPR league. Decided to go elsewhere. Poor decision.

I started him in the 3 leagues I have him.

But then, I started Aaron Jones in one league, so it’s not like I’m a genius or anything.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Jefferson and Puka over him at WR and Kamara and Ford in over him at flex.

I might have given Kamara a week to prove himself, especially with Carr out.

 

[Weebs210]

Doubs was probably one of my most drafted players late this year. Started him in one but also moved him/Freiermuth/Kyren for Watson and Hock before the game in another. Honestly like both ROS and they should both have good games going forward.

 

[barackdhouse]

Started him in 8/12 dynasties and 9/11 FPC redrafts. This was the first week I felt super confident about it. Would have loved to see him get a TD to go with this game but love the usage.

My God man. That is a lot of leagues

 

[jurrassic]

I started him, but I certainly debated it. Jones and Watson being limited certainly helped, along with the Packers being down big early. That said, Love seems to really have a rapport with him. He is definitely the main chain mover and zone buster on the team.

 

[RaidersAreOne]

Finally I make a good waiver wire addition.

Nabbing Kelley over a lot of other good options has put such a sour taste in my mouth.

 

[grateful zed]

starting him over hopkins, for now.

 

[jobarules]

Dropped him before week 1. Someone picked him up and played him this week. My opponent.

Those are just the ones with Doubs. He is one of my top 5 most rostered players across formats. I have him in around 54% of my 200 bestball leagues for example.

 

[Faust]

Romeo Doubs caught all 6 of his targets for 151 yards & a TD, generating a career-high +60 receiving yards over expected.

Doubs had most of his production come between the numbers, catching all 5 of targets for 112 yards & a TD.

From what I've seen so far, Doubs seems to be the guy Love looks for when the pressure is on or a play has broken down.

Where would these numbers have put Doubs at for 2023, WR3? I'm hoping someone on GB steps into WR2 territory this year. May be wishful thinking.

Stats above include playoffs; for the regular season:

WR36 in 0.5 PPR

8.5 PPG

WR51 PPG basis

8 TDs each for Reed (94 targets) & Doubs (96) - would expect some regression from both.

#Packers OC Adam Stenavich on Romeo Doubs:

“His route-running right now has been pretty tremendous… The last half of the [2023] season, he was playing at a pretty high level, and he’s really continued that in camp so far.”

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I’d really like Romeo Doubs if the Packers didn’t have 4 other super talented WRs.

IMO they all cap each other’s ceiling.

I’m hesitant to elevate Doubs too highly based on his touchdown totals from last year, since we all know that touchdowns can be very fickle.

Wicks, Reed, Watson, Doubs, even Melton… plus a couple of talented tight ends. There is only one football, and that’s an awful lot of competition for receptions.

Yep. I'd be happy to have any of them late, but I am not counting on any of them to be consistent enough to set-and-forget in my lineup. That could change if injuries happen, but while all are healthy, this is where I'm at.

While they are all healthy, Watson seems like the guy to target in redraft. He seems to be the one most likely to be a game changer on the fewest opportunities.

He's probably the most likely to miss time but we're talking about when all of them are healthy.

Yeah, I agree with all of this.

They’re all kinda better suited to best ball format IMO.

I feel like I have read the same blurbs about all four receivers.

 

[barackdhouse]

I don't know if I've ever read a single negative blurb on Doubs. Consistency at a high level is something that you can't get enough of. He doesn't excel at anything but he checks every single box. That in itself is an elite trait, to simply have all of the skills down. Not much more than average NFL at each skill set on the laundry list, but he has all of them. That is pretty rare and I think he might explode this year.

But of course to everyone's point, there are so many other talented WRs there to feed etc etc and yes I have to agree. So it's pretty tough. But I still say Doubs gets most of the 3rd down possession type targets, most of the RZ looks, and is already seemingly no worse than 1A in the pecking order so he'll get his share of 1st and 10 targets as well. But to really emerge as something more than a fantasy WR2/WR3 type, he will need to get double digit TDs. I think it's possible.

I simply don't believe in Watson's ability to stay healthy and I think Reed has a chance to be special but will likely emerge as a strong 1B. Wicks is probably the biggest threat but I think it will be with Reed as Doubs is simply too solid.

 

[barackdhouse]

Also, I have name bias here because obviously his name is fantastic.

Seriously lol. And then Wicks promptly catches a 65 yard td from Love lol.

Personally, at cost, Wicks is the guy I’m hanging my hat on.

Yeah...its really hard to get a full grip on it. Doubs is more the Driver like guy to me. Good route runner, nothing physically that separates him from others just hard working and seems to have the trust of Love.
Wicks and Watson are physically gifted but may take too much from each other. Without an injury, Im not sure Wicks gets enough consistently for FF.
Doubs and Reed IMO are the two that have a consistent floor in a way, but Watson and Wicks are the ones who can take the top off a defense and get those deep balls. But can you count on that? Both may be too TD dependent.

 

[Faust]

@32BeatWriters
“Which Packers receiver will be targeted the most in the red zone?
I bet it will be Romeo Doubs. Not only does he have perhaps the frame most apt for winning 50-50 balls, but he probably has the best hands on the team. Doubs tied for second in the NFL in red zone touchdown catches last year, behind only the Denver Broncos’ Courtland Sutton. Jayden Reed got plenty of red zone work, too, and he and Doubs each got 17 red zone targets. But in a got-to-have-it situation inside the 20-yard line, I’m trusting Doubs.”

[nittanylion]

Anyone have info on Doubs' status for tonight?

Saw he's not inactive, but hearing he's banged up.

I'm pulling DHop out of a flex spot, and have Wicks and Musgrave available to stand in, among others, but I'd be inclined to play one of these guys if Doubs was banged up enough to be limited or see reduced snaps.

 

[zed2283]

Looks like waiting to take the last GB WR was NOT the right move.

 

[The Dude]

Dropped him Thursday. I have read many times he's not very good WR but had found a spot in that offense that works for him - and it's not going to work long term

This can’t be right…

Sources told @BillHuberNFL / SI that Packers WR Romeo Doubs skipped practice on Thursday and wasn’t present on Friday because he is upset with his opportunities in the passing game.

Doubs had 8 targets last week. 7 in week 1. In the games Jordan Love has played he has 1 more total target than Reed, and 1 less than Wicks (13 last week).

[Dawg Pound 69]

So he is finally in a position to have a bigger role this week with Watson out, and he turns into a disgruntled diva. Foolish and selfish move. And it hurts his trade value, if he really wants to leave Green Bay.

My hunch is IF this report is true he in fact was not going to have a bigger role.

On the one hand, he's likely the least talented WR the team (of the top-4 guys, but maybe even Melton) on the other hand, we've never heard of even the slightest of attitude issues before.

Maybe GB can send Doubs+ to bring Adams back. GB is one of the teams, where Adams could step right in as he spent what 3 years with LaFleur?

 

[cockroach]

Dang, always seemed team team first guy. His connection with Love this year hasn't exactly been Romeo and Juliet, but it seems too early to be this disgruntled. Especially after how last year started.
