We've seen them on an NFL field in preseason and at practice. Looking forward to assessing this superstar narrative at the end of the year after they've gone against first string DBs that actually prepared for them.j4pac wrote: ↑Sat Sep 03, 2022 4:18 am There is something that can be said about a bird in hand…and the actual ability to see a player on a NFL playing field. For instance…Pickens and Olave look like superstars. I understand their hype was low this offseason, behind all of the other good prospect and even guys like Skyy Moore at times. But you can’t ignore how dominant they have looked on the playing field in a NFL uniform. If the goal in dynasty is to have young superstars…those two are really good bets. At some point you have to completely throw out “stock” that is often dictated by mob mentality and slow to change. I’m personality taking those two guys as my top two WRs right now. Im sure London and Williams could be good…but I’m sure that Pickens and Olave ARE good. Why trade either of those guys for a 2023 pick? You get production right away and there are no guarantees from any of the players next year. The only pick I would take is 1.01 because that typically turns into a lottery pick that can be offloaded for a ton of resources…but otherwise, I’ll probably just stay put.
I'm personally unwilling to make major adjustments to my rankings this time of year. I had London, Burks, Wilson, and Jameson in a tier, sure Burks is now at the bottom of that tier, but I'm unwilling to drop him entirely out of that tier or Pierce or Doubs or Pickens into that tier based on practice and the preseason. Always thought Olave, Pickens, and Skyy were in that next tier, agree with you based on everything Pickens and Olave are firmly above Skyy for me at this juncture...
We'll see how this looks at the end of the year.
