2017 Bold Predictions

Postby WhatWouldDitkaDo » Tue Jun 06, 2017 7:53 am

I haven't seen a thread like this created yet for the coming season. What are 3 bold predictions you have for the 2017 season (fantasy or general NFL)? Bonus: What is 1 bold prediction you have for the 2017 post season?

1. Eddie Lacy stays healthy and rushes for about 1,200/10.
2. Patrick Mahomes and Kareem Hunt are KC's starting QB and RB by Week 12.
3. Ryan Tannehill has a career year in his second season under Adam Gase's, throwing for about 4,500/30/15.
Bonus 2017 postseason prediction: SF signs both Kirk Cousins and Terrelle Pryor to 4-year deals after a big year in WAS.
Kittles Pox | Championships: 2015, 2017

These are always fun:

1. Kamar Aiken will outperform Donte Moncrief
2. Dalvin Cook will be the the best fantasy PPR running back
3. Andy Dalton will be top 5
I am just a guy sharing some thoughts

Josh Gordon is reinstated...j/k, I'm not going to be that bold.

1. Lynch and AP don't finish out the season and retire after next season.
2. Tom Brady finishes outside of the top 10 QBs.
3. No rookie TE finishes in the top 10.

I know it's supposed to be an exceptionally talented class at TE, but is #3 really all that bold? How many rookie TEs have had top 10 finishes at their position over the last 15-20 years? Gronk, Shockey...anyone else?

I had a feeling someone would say that. I agree it's not THAT bold, but plenty people are making it seem like multiple rookie TEs are going to produce right out the gate. I considered saying they won't finish top 20, but I think that's more likely to happen.
