DeVante Parker

[dynastyninja]

Not saying he’s going to be a stud, but his 6-134 night last night wasn’t too shabby. Yes 50 of it came on a fluke play, but 5-80 is still better than what he’s been doing to this point. And it wasn’t all in garbage time either... he had 50 yards at halftime.

This is what Parker owners have been expecting for a while I'd imagine. The questions will be whether or not he can do it consistently. He's flashed a few times now.

He looked like a WR1 last night. Arrow is pointing up for sure, he could have a huge jump in adp by season end.

haha, I doubt you'll ever be able to say that.
They had no one else to throw it to. It was either him, the rookie TE running drag routes or the 5'6" Grant (and Osweiller couldn't get the ball low enough for Grant at times). Hopefully he strings together a few more "wasn't too shabby" performances for his owners.

Don’t forget Osweiler missed him on a long TD when he was 5 yards behind th DB.

Not saying he’s going to be a stud, but he looked dominant & it’s a head-scratcher why they weren’t utilizing him earlier.

That will be the debate for the time being. Was Parker benched because he's inconsistent and hurts his team, or is Gase incompetent?

Probably a little of both

[Jfever]

^ This x2

I think it is definitely a little of both.

Well he’s never going to be a stud with those QBs and that HC.

If he's truly going to be a stud, that shouldn't matter too much

Everyone is so worried about looking like a fool. I'll say it. If Parker stays healthy and plays the rest of the games this season he will be a top 36 startup pick next year. I called it on Tyreek, calling him the next AB well before that was acceptable around here. What I saw last night was elite talent in size, speed, and adjustment to poorly thrown balls. I think he follows the Davante Adams trajectory if he stays healthy.

Not saying he's going to be a stud, .................

On a more serious note, as a Parker owner, I was happy to see that he had a good game upon his return from absence. However, I had him riding my bench.

[DinoDynasty]

An owner dropped him for Jakeem last week. I picked him up, and started him vs said owner.

I am happy

I sure hope you are right. I took him in the 6th of a startup this year and have been hating myself for it ever since.

I also got Tyreek at the end of the 3rd... so happy about that. If you are right I’m going to subscribe to your posts!

I am here as well. Always talented and Gase maybe drove his point home benching him. He looked like a different WR out there last night than I remember

It's really not though. I've been holding him everywhere since 2015 and I sold him a few months ago so it's only natural he'd blow up now.
