Fair points, and MT could very well prove me wrong, don't really have a counter to it or anything, but just looking backwards he hasn't been study, but he for sure can pop off going forward, can he pop off without first ballot hall of fame QB Drew Brees? Idk, but he definitely is a great player regardless, just needs to take that next step.AresGodOWar wrote: ↑Sun Jul 22, 2018 4:05 pmNice write up two things are head scratcher for me.nathanq42 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 22, 2018 3:46 pm Mike evans

Mike Evans has had 4 straight 1000 yard seasons.. over that 4 year span he has 32 touchdowns. And many people agree that jaemis hasn't been the best QB over the past few years. He has more weapons around him to take some heat off but also siphon targets. Even with 122 targets in his rookie year (from Josh McCown) and 136 last year, he still eclipsed the 1000 yard mark and these aren't high % throws either, it's run straight and make the contested catch 20 yards down field. His target totals are good for 29th and 11th in the seasons mentioned above. He has shown in 2016 he is every bit as good as Hopkins is and Hopkins is overall #1 discussion. People have short memories.
Keenan and MT are very similar players imo (good size, not the most athletic, but they create separation anyways, reliable hands, tied to great QBs that are flirting with retirement) I have Keenan higher because he has posted at least 1 elite season. MT seems to be very consistently mid-low end WR1 but hasn't had a pop off season like Allen. Allen's injury history people say is over blown but I don't think so. It might not be major injuries like an ACL tear every year, but he is always on the injury report, if it isn't an ankle issue over a month it's a back problem or something with him. It doesn't always keep him out of games but you've gotta wonder how it will affect his longevity.
Admas doesn't impress me, not a fan of GB, I think he is good at contested catches which is evident by how many touchdowns he has over the past two seasons but his yardage totals imo do not warrant his ADP. No way I spend a mid second round pick on a TD dependent guy on a dysfunctional team that is propped up by a superstar QB they lucked into.
1. You say MT hasn't posted a elite year are you forgetting he only played 2 years and has about 200 catches , 2400 yards , 14 TDs in them , The TDs aren't there yet but I think he starts getting 10+ a year , I mean he hasn't even hit his year 3 breakout yet.
2. You said Adams is tied to ARod kinda implying he needs him to be good but with Nelson still in GB last year without ARod he was a top 10 WR , He only played 14 games and had 74-855-10 on 114 targets with who at QB ? I think he starts getting elite WR targets now the 160+ amount and with ARod throwing them he can easily put up 110-1400-16ish
So far as admas goes I will have to agree to disagree until he proves me wrong. I will note that I just hate GB and haven't looked into Adams much. I do agree that he could take a big leap forward with Rodgers back and Nelson gone. But I am not buying at current prices. However you have given me much to think about when looking at Adams...
