Poll: 1.05 versus Alshon Jeffery

[Nesus]

Thoughts?

The 1.05 is my only pick in this year's rookie draft. I think this class is incredibly overhyped.

Thanks

[Nesus]

If I kept the pick I'd probably take Chubb if he was the at 1.05. He's my RB2 in this class

[Vcize]

If you want lousy TD dependent wr3 production you can probably get Dez for 2.05 instead.

[Nesus]

Haha. He does have Dez too

If I can get guaranteed lousy WR3 production from him with a torn rotator cuff for the next 4 years it's probably better than taking the next Mike Williams

^This.

Alshon is likely going to be miles ahead of anyone taken at the 1.05 slot.

Things we don't know about the 1.05:
- Who is most likely to be available at that pick
- If the player that likely occupies that pick will have a good landing spot
- Literally, if that player is any good whatsoever in the NFL

Things we know about Alshon:
- After he and Wentz got on the same page (after wk 8), he had 7 TD in 7 games. TD dependent or not, they're pts
- He's the number 1 WR on one of the NFLs highest powered offenses
- He played all year hurt (which is huge for Alshon)

IF you like to gamble, you can take the pick, and maybe you hit, and maybe you end up Mike Williams in 2017, Doctson in 2016, Yeldon in 2015, or Jordan Matthews in 2014. Just because it's a top 5 pick doesn't mean it's going to hit. Capitalize on rookie fever and take the guaranteed/known production everytime.

[Nesus]

Yeah I think that's spot on in this case, Canuck

[thomasscheeks]

Alshon for me. He's the WR1 on a super good offense. There's a lot of mouths to feed, but there's also a lot of scoring opportunities

Just made a similar trade of 1.05 for Alshon.

[drbuttermaker]

Offered 1.05 for Jeffery thinking I might be able to get him based on this thread. Declined with no counter.

[cazzie33]

Situations vary...depends on how bad the Jeffrey owner needs a RB . Also if the Jeffrey owner is in a good position to replace Jeffrey with minimal loss of production. If he is in rebuilding mode.

Might have to involve a 3rd party sometimes to get deal done. Time to get your Trump face on and practice the Art of the Deal skills. (closest I could get to an orange face)

[Gator Sens]

I would make he deal for Alshon. He should be very solid for years with Wentz.
