Fact- He'll get exposed as a slot-only Landry-wanabe. Coach Gruden isn't sold on Cooper and built in redundancies should he fail. Nelson will become the short/intermediate target while Bryant will strike deep in a traditional/throwback offense like Dallas has been operating. Switzer was brought in to cover the slot in case Cooper gets another bad case of the ouchies.
Relying on an aging WR, a pothead and an aging RB running behind an underperforming oline makes the entire offense dicey.
Narrative: Allen Robinson had a fluky good year and is coming off an injury, he's a WR #2
Reality: that fluky good year was the year he wasn't awesome. He finishes top 5 PPR

Agreed, love the thread.GridironGuerilla wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 1:26 pm Yet another thread that can be clearly divided into two camps... those who have and those who do not. Lol
Seriously though, I'm diggin' this thread. Great topic idea.
However, some people are in multiple leagues, some put only one league in their signature, and I myself own, pursued and bought players who I don't think have optimistic 2018 outlooks.
League #1- 14 tm ppr, 1Q, 2R, 3W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1K
1 DT, 2 DE, 2 LB, 1 CB, 1 S, 1 flex
League #2- 12 team PPR, 1Q, 1R, 2W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1 W/R/T, 1 Def
League #3- 12 tm PPR, 1Q, 0R (yes, ZERO RB) 3W, 1T, 2 R/W/T flex, 1 Def
1 DT, 2 DE, 2 LB, 1 CB, 1 S, 1 flex
League #2- 12 team PPR, 1Q, 1R, 2W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1 W/R/T, 1 Def
League #3- 12 tm PPR, 1Q, 0R (yes, ZERO RB) 3W, 1T, 2 R/W/T flex, 1 Def
Re: Narratives most likely to Flip this Season
Meh I dunno about that. I posted about Barkley and I have him in one of my two leagues. I am just more realistic about my expectations.GridironGuerilla wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 1:26 pm Yet another thread that can be clearly divided into two camps... those who have and those who do not. Lol

Re: Narratives most likely to Flip this Season
Narrative: Jarvis' targets will be distributed between Parker, Stills, Amendola, Wilson, Drake, and Ballage.
Reality: While everyone sees a slight bump in targets, the guys that pick up that role (short yardage pass) is Albert Wilson and Kenyan Drake. Wilson is used much like Landry but has more intermediate and deep passes sprinkled in. Whereas Drake sees the field as a WR when Gore or Ballage are playing RB. Drake also catches a lot of Landry like short passes the times he's spit out wide. Wilson ends the season as a mid range WR2 and Drake a low end RB1.

Re: Narratives most likely to Flip this Season
I’ve got a different take on the above post^
Narrative: Landry’s targets get redistributed and player X is valuable
Reality: Miami offense goes full dumpster fire. Low value guys like Wilson might pay off but overall no one on that team is too valuable

Re: Narratives most likely to Flip this Season
Narrative: jerrick mckinnon will thrive in shanahans offense.
Reality: hes a workout warrior who sucks at football.
Narrative: penny is seattles savior at rb.
Reality: carson holds the job and seattles continues their landslide into irrelevance because they wasted a first round pick on a rb instead of the line or defense.
Narrative: or should i say lack thereof, ty hilton anyone...
Reality: returns to top five in rec yards.

Re: Narratives most likely to Flip this Season
This is an odd take. Hasn't he already proven that he does not suck at football? I'm not saying he'll thrive in SF, but he's not some rookie with zero NFL snaps.ImaRounder wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 7:30 pmNarrative: jerrick mckinnon will thrive in shanahans offense.

He's definitely not your traditional three down back, but has the upside to be the better part of a committee if Garapolo continues to play well. These days, that's decent value.

Re: Narratives most likely to Flip this Season
Im with you on that, and see it much of the same way. I think he puts up similar numbers as last year. I was only referring to the people who are putting him ahead of the freeman or fournettes in rankings.Pac_Eddy wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 7:59 pmGot ya.ImaRounder wrote: ↑Fri Jun 29, 2018 7:48 pmI mean yes , he obviously doesn't suck at football, hes in the nfl.

Re: Narratives most likely to Flip this Season
Very possible. Wouldn't surprise me if the entire offense implodes, taking Tannehill, Parker and Gase with it. Miami, I think, has a legit shot st a top 5 pick and perhaps even #1 overall.
