I'm in a typical 12 team, PPR dynasty league and he has gone 19.5, 8.6, 5.7, 15.6, 12.3, 15.6 and 25 since the Dolphin's BYE in week 5. I can justify leaving him on the bench no longer.
How good was LSU last year?
I do not see this happening at all. Revis will be on Wallace. If the #1 corner goes on Landry then Wallace would tear them apart. Wallace and Landry are putting up similiar numbers but Wallace is drawing more coverage and the better corners.
I thought the same thing. Seemed odd that Bettis was so confident that he knew the Pats' game plan.
In what ways do you consider the two players similar?
Eddie Royal was an example of a low YPR guy with a huge rookie year who fell off, don't expect that to happen but Landry is hardly a special athlete.
I think Landry is a much better player than Bess. He is a little bigger, a lot tougher over the middle, and has better hands (although Bess had good hands too). Landry has a Hines Ward vibe about him to me. He's a baller. Type of player who doesnt have the measurables, but finds a way to get open, doesnt drop the ball, is fearless, and can make plays after the ball is in his hands. Its a tough way to gauge a player, but I'd say his floor is Bess, and his ceiling is Ward...and I personally see him closer to the ceiling.
Any good possession receiver could be used as an argument against PPR leagues, but it is still a rather poor one.
I think Hines Ward was a better athlete but I don't mind that comp. Landry would need an idea situation like Ward to produce big numbers though.
1.8 right now, after the draft that could go lower
Gotcha
Probably average more than 9 yards a catch. I just don't see the upside with him. Right now talking about giving up the 1.06 for him is sheer madness. We're talking about passing on acquiring a different level of athlete for a guy who is basically Brian Hartline at this point. I'll pass until he shows me he can do something more than 10 yards down the field.
I fully expect the Dolphins to use their 1st rounder on a WR. If they don't, he's worth a mid first, probably 1.07 or so. If they do, I'd bump him down, but just slightly. Probably more like 1.10.
He has already done more than whoever you take at pick 12 probably ever will.amicsta said:
1) That is certainly an opinion. Plenty of guys produce at or past that spot in rookie drafts.
I certainly think the low yards per catch stands out in regards to Landry. But what is significant about 10 ypc? Because 10 yards = 1st down?amicsta said:
