Matthew Stafford remains the WR kingmaker. Been behind:

1. Best WR season ever (Cooper Kupp, 2021)
2. Second-best WR season ever (Calvin Johnson, 2012)
3. Kenny Golladay top-10 WR (2018, 2019)
4. Golden Tate 1300-yard season (2014)
5. Marvin Jones three 9-TD seasons (2017, 2019, 2020)
6. Tutu Atwell (5'9/165) winning at NFL level (2023)
7. Puka Nacua best fantasy WR in NFL (2023)

So as long as Puka is in LAR and has Stafford, I think he'll continue to be elite. I love my share and am happy to have him.
Lol what kind of nonsense is this. Why is Tutu Atwell on this list.

What a hoss'.

I've seen early redraft rankings for 2024 with him as a first round pick.

Can't really disagree with it at this point.

Wish I had more shares, but if he can replace my aging Diggs, I'm happy with that.

I also want to state that I think Nacua should win co OROY, if possible. Stroud, due to difficulty of position and lack of perceived talent, on a bottom 2 team, should definitely win, but Nacua broke records, so hard not to give him credit.

Considering this trade for Puka.
12 team SF TEP PPR Start 11:

Give: 1.01
Get: Puka Nacua, 1.07 (probably Brock Bowers here).

Situation, my QB room is fairly solid, ranked #1 in league according to Dynasty Daddy.
I plan to take MHJ, and have been looking to trade back to 1.02, who wants Caleb.
I currently own 1.01, 1.04, 1.06, 1.08, and 1.12, and my WR room is weak (ranked 11th).
Can start up to 6 WR's, and right now London is my only startable option.

I currently have an offer of 1.01, 2.06, and a 25 2nd out for 1.02 and 1.07.
This is another offer I am considering making.
It would give me London/Puka, and hopefully still get Nabers, Odunze, Bowers, Brian Thomas Jr., and Troy Franklin

Thoughts?

I don’t see how you don’t accept that, and I’m a strong MHJ proponent. Nacua was a solid mid FF WR1 as a rookie and then you’re still going to get a top player as well with the 1.07 pick. Unless you’re convinced that Nacua will never reach that level of production again I think that trade leans solidly in your direction.

I would say probably Brock Bowers there. Good trade.

Good deal, although in TE premium, I wouldn’t count on Bowers being there at 1.7. He definitely won’t make it to 1.7 in our TE premium leagues anyways

TEP is only 0.5 PPR.
I expect Bowers to be there at 1.07, but could be Odunze or Jayden Daniels I guess.
Remember, I own 1.04, 1.06, 1.08 as well.

My main concern about Puka is if he falls off without Stafford, similar to the way Kenny Golladay fell off without Stafford.
Stafford has made a career of locking in on certain WR's.
The 2 best fantasy seasons of all time came with Stafford at QB for Kupp in 2021, and Megatron in 2012.
Also Puka has the rookie record with Stafford at QB.
Kenny G and Marvin Jones had their best seasons with Stafford

I was thinking of offering Puka straight up for 1.02 (Nabers, as I have the 1.01 and will be taking Harrison). Thoughts? I think Stafford, the king-maker, will be around three more years so I guess it's a matter of will Puka be elite for three more years and then fall off or stay a stud? Is Nabers as good a player? IDK.

How do you see that as a positive move? Do you expect Nabers to be a top 5 FF WR his rookie year? At the very best it’s a lateral move IMO, and that’s if the rookie unknown turns in a Nacua-like rookie year - unless like I said before that you see last year as Nacua’s apex.
