And yes, NO spreads the ball around. But Thomas was still able to go for 92/1137/9 with Cooks opposite, it's ridiculous to think his target share with go down now that Cooks is gone. He's the clear WR1 and will get his share each and every game. He was solid week after week in his rookie season, the only place to go from there is up.mabeibefunny wrote: ↑Thu Apr 06, 2017 9:56 am Everyone pretty much covered both sides, but I'm going to take Arob, and not for any of the other reasons.... I hate having WRs on NO, they spread the ball around too much and even though there are big stat years for people in there, week to week could go from boom-to-bust.... maybe it is just me being still scarred from M. Colson, but one week would be 3 for 40, the next 12 for 130 and 2 TDs.... Just too much volatility for my liking.
Not taking Arob because I have him, but if two players are pretty much split down the middle IMO, I take the one that is the go-to target and I can reasonably expect to get looks every week.
These 2 WRs are dead even for me. They both proved they can do it at a high level, and both carry some risk. After this season, this debate will be laughable, one way or the other. It's pointless to have a preference at this point because we all know we suck at predicting things. Remember DJ last year? Nobody believed he would repeat his numbers, and he shattered them.
