**Obscure TE Poll: Need Your Input**

This is obscure I know, but for the 2018 and 2019 seasons ONLY, who do you like more at .5 PPR TE: Ebron or Njoku? I think Njoku will be the better player long-term, but most other TE's career production really starts at year three or later.

good grief..
not sure who it was, but someone on here said they are from Detroit, and Ebron cannot handle the zip that Stafford puts on the ball...
that worries me
on the other hand, as you stated, it may take 2 or 3 years for Njoku to get his feet under him...

i would not straight swap them...if someone offered it to you, i would ask for at least a bump in a round + the player

honestly, i think Ebron...but not with much confidence...i changed my mind 3 times while typing that...so i am torn

Option C: It's DYNASTY, don't worry about a year or two.

Under option C, I choose Njoku. I think he has a better chance to climb higher in value effectively making him the better buy low.

The years 18 + 19 make it interesting so its got to be Ebron right? I am a big Ebron fan but tight ends are notorious for developing slowly so its really a toss up after that. I picked Ebron but see the value of Njuku

Right. But that's not the OP's question. Just '18 & '19, I lean Ebron. That being said, why not '17 included?

Close, but I'll go with Ebron. Only for the fact that Njoku hasn't played an NFL snap and Ebron has been developing nicely the last three years, putting him in line for a big year in 2017.

Ebron's improved each season he's been in the league. I think it's him and it's not close.

This isn't close for 2018 and 2019, Ebron will crush Njoku's fantasy scoring. People want to be disappointed in Ebron but forget he just turned 24 and is a TE in the NFL... You're hoping Njoku translates into what Ebron has already done over the next 3 years. Classic case of rookie fever i.e. I haven't seen Njoku so the allure of his upside is greater than the known commodity.

FWIW Ebron was a better prospect and a greater talent. I'd take Ebron in the long run as well but admit it's closer.

I've never liked Ebron and I don't see that changing. I would definitely prefer Njoku.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.
