Tavon is the worst but was already a low end WR2 last year, and just got paid so should remain as or more involved this year. Sharpe just can't match that upside this year, I don't think. Best case, Rishard Matthews falls completely flat within a month or two and Sharpe takes over as the WR1 for 2/3 the year and puts up WR3 numbers because he's still on the Titans.

Has DJ actually? I saw a bunch of 1-2 yard runs and one 15+, but I wasn't watching that closely. Edit: Oh yeah, and that goal line TD, right?

D-Jax was on an 87 target pace in the games he played last year whereas Garcon was still on pace for 103 targets in those same games. And Crowder is definitely a young slot receiver liked by Jay Gruden and his staff. They're going to run so many 3WR sets that Crowder will be on the field roughly as much as the other two. This is the target distribution from last year and I just don't see how any of the secondary weapons are going to stand out week to week. Garcon is still a starter and will see 90+ targets again, Crowder is an up and coming player who should see 80+ again, so Jackson is going to see what maybe 90? 95? Doesn't play a real red zone role either; saw all of 4 targets in the red zone last year with no scores and was 5/12 with one score in 2014. And he's no stranger to soft tissue injuries either so we can't really assume he'll stay healthy. Looking at your other options, I don't know when you would feel comfortable starting him so he's completely expendable in my opinion.

As for Jones and Moncrief, Marvin Jones saw 111 targets playing second fiddle to AJ Green and by all accounts, him and Stafford have shown great chemistry together. Jones is a great value at his draft slot and should easily see ~120 targets this year. Moncrief is in line for a real breakout as the #2 (or maybe even #1) option for Andrew Luck, who is slightly better than Kirk Cousins at the position. Real easy to project 100+ targets for him as well.

Thanks for that breakdown, because now I see where you are coming from. I get how you inferred

Obviously I am with you on Moncrief, I just am saying nothing is guaranteed. And Marvin Jones will be sharing targets with a lot of people. Jackson would have been on pace for almost 90 targets, which is awesome if he does that. Remember, this is 0PPR. Jackson has never really been a target machine, but he a guy I can plug in and have a reasonable expectation of getting 90 yards and a TD if I put him in 66% of the time. That is an awesome expectation for where I am taking him.

Standard scoring in ESPN. Guy in my league really wants Alshon Jefferyy. Here is my team:

QB Blake Bortles
RB DeMarco Murray
RB Jeremy Langford
WR Julio Jones
WR Alshon Jeffery
WR Keenan Allen
TE Gary Barnidge
FLEX Marvin Jones
D/ST Chiefs D/ST
K Justin Tucker
Bench Derrick Henry
Bench James Starks
Bench Phillip Dorsett
Bench Jordan Howard
Bench Chris Thompson

He has Adrian Peterson and Doug Martin. He initially offered Doug Martin for Alshon Jeffery. I'm thinking of aiming bigger and offering him DeMarco Murray, Derrick Henry, and Alshon Jeffery for AP and Kevin White/Martavis Bryant. His other WR are Jeremy Maclin and DeSean Jackson.

Am I overpaying for AP here or should I take his Doug Martin offer?

No one commented on this so I thought I'd try again. If I'm in the wrong topic please tell me.

I offered that first, but he nixed that immediately. He basically wants Alshon and another WR for AP.

If he would go Alston / Dorsett, I would strongly consider it. Unfortunately, you have no WR depth

"Another WR" as in "Julio or Allen, who are really good WRs and also better than Alshon?" If so, your best bet is to get him to pony up some more on his end of the Alshon-Martin deal, instead of trying for AP. Him nixing it rather than counter-offering is a clear sign you'd be wasting your time trying to put together a package deal for All-Day

A.J. Green limped off the field like 5 minutes after a guy took him in the first in our draft. It was great talking poo poo about that the rest of the way.

Bill Daly's draft was pretty bad. He took Devante Parker in the 4th, Tyler Eifert in the 6th (who just got announced to be injured for a month), and his whole bench are rookies but not the good ones. Someone mentioned that their boss wanted them in tomorrow at 5am and he was like yeah we all got a boss which made me feel bad for him since his is Bettman.

When my wife used to play fantasy football, she would do poo poo like this and dominate the regular season. He prepared to crown Daly is all I am saying.

It seems worse than this year, freezing and such. I had a draft on Saturday and probably half the people has to close and rejoin at some point.
