Wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him lead the team in targets. Considering a 4th quarter line of 4/65/1, it’s tempting to project that over a full game, but he probably won’t go 16/280/4. Could he go 9/14 for 120+ & 1 TD? Absolutely. love him for the volume alone. Was just reading how when he was with JAX he practiced against Ramsey & developed his game. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly. Look at what he’s done to the 3 top wideouts that he’s faced in the last 3 weeks. Chark, Mike Evans, and Amari Cooper were all brutalized. I love Arob just about any other time, but not this week. My opponent also has Rodgers at QB, so it’s a bit of a hedge for me as well in case he has a big game.

The Chicago game is probably gonna be super low low scoring and Trubisky could be rusty in addition to the Lattimore fact. Throw out the rankings this time of year. This is a week to week game and this week Lazard should be the better play. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a hedge in the sense that Arod looks to be without at least two of his top receivers, and LK is the one among the bunch he has who does stand out against a defense that isnt all that great this week. I dont know exactly what I have with LK at this point, but everything he did on Monday night was just in the 4th quarter alone. If he goes for over a hundred yards and 3 TDs this week I will be double kicking myself if he’s on my bench with Arod playing against me.

I don’t fault you for starting him, but just know it’s mutually exclusive to your opponent starting ARod. 👍🏼 I may start him over Amari Cooper as I think LK will be better than Austin, who I’d be forced to start if AC is a late scratch.

Ministry of Pain 5,424 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 The 3:30 Advisory on Saturday has just been released, we have a few updates... -Geronimo upgraded to Questionable -MVS likely playing -Adams OUT The facts remain that although MVS and Geronimo might be playing, neither has really nailed it down as a go to guy, both nursing some injuries which could impede them like wind sheering on an Atlantic Storm. And since Lazard has looked great and is a favorite of Rodgers, we are still going to anticipate a potential Cat-1 on Sunday with winds still packing 80 MPH and let's start getting some potential rainfall and stats from NOAA... 7 targets, 5 catches, 60 yds and a TD, Top36 WR still making him a start amongst most 12 teams leagues, start-3 WRs. Batten down the hatches and let's see how the Cone of Uncertainty looks tomorrow morning. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like his upside this week too but basing anything on 13 minutes of game time is just as foolish as trying to cancel your opponent by starting Lazard because your opponent has Rodgers. Lazard played in 6 games prior to those 13 minutes totalling 1 catch for 7 yards. He couldn't get in front of Allison, Scantling or Jake Kumerow. Two UDFAs and a 5th round pick. Multiple injuries in front of him are the only thing he has going for him and that may be enough for this week. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm probably back on the “start Cooper & if he’s a late scratch go with Austin” wagon, but it’s tempting to roll with the lizard king. Better bragging rights if he blows up & all that.

The only thing I could really find was he had a terrible practice at the Senior Bowl & dropped a bunch of passes, but guys with his size, athletic ability, & production (in a Power-5 conference) don't go undrafted.
