He was what WR55-60 in most PPR formats. There plenty reason not to start him if he were completely healthy. some dude who had to start him due to lack of options or even "better" who could not get him out of the line-up because of the thurs game is going to ride this performance to victory. gotta love this hobby sometimes.So glad I sat him thinking he wouldn't play, then worried how effective he'd be. Seems pretty rare for someone to get concussed on a Sunday, then come back and play on a Thursday. Much less put up these numbers...
Little misleading. He's been pretty good, just got concussed in week 6, and already had his byeHe was what WR55-60 in most PPR formats.

I used to think I knew what a floor was until I watched Julio's three game stretch recently.Stompin' Tom Connors said:Offense has struggled, lots of mouths to feed. How viable is it that Adams can consistently contribute to a FF squad as a flex option?
Is he (and the offense) too unpredictable?
Will he have any semblance of a consistent floor?
Waste of money IMOHe was dropped this week. The way our system works, TNF participants are locked until the next weekly WW.
I'll be making my biggest bid of the season next week.
Me too. Nelson had 1 catch. He's like every other wr3 out there. Will have some big games and some duds but good luck figuring out when.Waste of money IMO
Except I'm not sure he's the number 3 anymore. Rodgers has been looking his way a lot this year and Jordy isn't the same WR as pre acl tear Jordy Nelson and at his age I'm not sure he'll ever be the same.Me too. Nelson had 1 catch.

Huge improvements here. I'm eating my words that he is bad, as he looked great last night. Players can change, and we don't always know how injured they are I suppose.Guy looked like a carbon copy of Crabtree last night. Amazing how different he looks this year. What happened to the stone hands?!?
This is certainly true, but 16 targets would be a decent number even if they had the ball for all 60 minutes.I would only remind people that this was against Chicago. A team playing their 3rd string QB. That defense was on the field for 40 minutes of the game. I don't think you will see many games with that lopsided of a TOP.
Based the information prior to last night, there was not much reason to start a hit or miss fantasy WR4-5 who was was coming off a concussion on a short week. He had not had a game with more than 8 targets, Aaron R. had been inconsistent with his accuracy, and the entire passing game had underperformed. Adding another WR to the field (even as a RB) muddied that picture more. Sorry, Adams was ooops(bleeping thurs night) or I have nothing better or a dart throw. Sometime dart throws hit bullseye...like last night.Kitrick Taylor said:Little misleading. He's been pretty good, just got concussed in week 6, and already had his bye

Not just the ACL with Jordy but when he tore his ACL he was just getting back on field from major hip surgery. So he's had two significant lower body surgeries since he last played. I've thought all year he can't run but was masking it to fantasy community based on volume and TD's. It looked to me like last night Green Bay decided to quit acting like he's old Jordy and stop forcing him the ball.Jordy isn't the same WR as pre acl tear Jordy Nelson and at his age I'm not sure he'll ever be the same.
I wouldn't expect him to put up last nights numbers but I think he sees 8-10 targets a game going forward he can be a nice WR 2 like Kitrick mentioned a few posts ago.
Not the first time I've watched him this year & thought he's a different guy this year. Butv the volume hasn't been there.Guy looked like a carbon copy of Crabtree last night. Amazing how different he looks this year. What happened to the stone hands?!?
I'd agree there was little reason to start him going into Thursday night. I was just suggesting that he had actually played pretty well leading up to that game. It just got a bit lost in the shuffle given the bye, the concussion, and having one game vs the Vikings. (who have basically erased all WRs to date).Based the information prior to last night, there was not much reason to start a hit or miss fantasy WR4-5 who was was coming off a concussion on a short week.

Prior to his last game he was getting 5-8 targets. I don't know that changes based on his one game explosion. Low end WR3 imo. I'd like to see double digit targets more than once to change my mind.menobrown said:Not just the ACL with Jordy but when he tore his ACL he was just getting back on field from major hip surgery.

He could get his legs under him again but reality is he's come off his bye week and gotten progressively worse.
Agree with sentiment that Adams should be solid for 8-10 targets a game on average and a rock solid WR2. I'd venture to guess that was his best fantasy game of his career last night, ever I mean, but I think he's here to stay as useful piece to Pack and fantasy teams.
Well some people, myself included, are projected something in range of that end total so in the 8-10 range. He had to leave one game early with a concussion and in the other games was averaging 6 targets a game.Prior to his last game he was getting 5-8 targets.

Not sure of your keeper details but Adams is taking over in GB. Nelson looks slow. Maybe his injury recovery is not complete. Maybe he is getting old.Adams 2 more TDs tonight.
Wondering if this dude is a keeper for next yr
I sold him in both leagues I had him in too, but there were buyers paying full value while he was getting outplayed by Jared Abbrederis and others. I just had to do it... Too much risk involved at that time. It probably wasn't even the wrong move at the time even though Adams is making us look foolish in hindsight - depending on what we got in return I guess..There's the Adams I thought would emerge last season when he had every opportunity to do so. Probably sold too soon in Dynasty. I was so hyped on him coming into the league, drafted him in both dynasty leagues, sold him in both. It is the bears.
You are saying us and we, so is there more than one person that runs your team?I sold him in both leagues I had him in too, but there were buyers paying full value while he was getting outplayed by Jared Abbrederis and others.

Standard league/scoring. I picked him up off WW early in the year, so he'd be a round 8 keeper. I'm guessing he'd get drafted a few rounds higher. New to this keeper thing though.Not sure of your keeper details but Adams is taking over in GB. Nelson looks slow. Maybe his injury recovery is not complete. Maybe he is getting old.
Looks like a great keeper for round 8. Adams and Jordy will likely be WR1A and WR1B next year if Jordy does not regain some speed and explosiveness in the offseason. Adams looks like he could pass Nelson. Cobb is a great fit for the GB slot WR.Standard league/scoring. I picked him up off WW early in the year, so he'd be a round 8 keeper.

No I meant myself and the other poster who unloaded him. I got Devante Freeman straight up and Aaron Rodgers in a package in the other deal I made. I since flipped Rodgers for Watkins.You are saying us and we, so is there more than one person that runs your team?
It's so weird I have no confidence in him but he's a top 10 wr. Yeah he has some duds but so does Julio and we keep rolling him out. I think the matchup isn't terrible. No earl Thomas and gb at home with no chance to run on Seattle. Should be a high scoring game.Can he be trusted to put up points?
I feel this matchup blows...yet he may be my best shot at putting up "big points". Such a boom or bust type of guy that Im likely taking the safe route and Fitz's 8-9 points.
No. But I'm starting him over AR15, who can be trusted even less. First round of the FF playoffs and I feel like I have nothing but bd options.Can he be trusted to put up points?
Bovada has him at 58.5 yds. and his odds to score are around the same they always are. My other choice is Watkins. Im rolling AdamsCan he be trusted to put up points?

And...within the first minute he's got 6x more points than Robinson got in 60 minutes.No. But I'm starting him over AR15, who can be trusted even less. First round of the FF playoffs and I feel like I have nothing but bd options.
I would trust him.Anyone trusting Davante against Minnesota D? Colts were able to move the ball on them last week.
