Davante Adams Thread - Concerned?
Re: Davante Adams
If you draft Adams, just park him on your bench for a few years. He should take over for Jordy down the stretch and he'll be fantasy gold at that point.

Personally I like Adams but if Cobb resigns I wouldnt want him on any of my teams at the price of a top 10 rookie pick.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
So what, Jordy re-signed. Did Cobb leave GB this weekend and I missed it go down?
Save your impressions of the ghost that's in your closet until Cobb leaves the Packers.

I felt they would sign both Cobb and Nelson so I avoided Adams (he went between 1.5 and 1.10 in my leagues so it wasn't difficult to do).Bubba1104 wrote:Personally I like Adams but if Cobb resigns I wouldnt want him on any of my teams at the price of a top 10 rookie pick.

Re: Davante Adams
Maybe I'm biased as a Fresno State fan, but even if Cobb re-signs now; I still think that Adams will have no problem carving a solid role out for himself. I"m not a football coach or big at analyzing, but from my perspective Adams is a physically huge threat and target, with great hands, route running, and non-stop work ethic after the catch. When I watched him play for the Bulldogs, I knew he would be fantastic in the NFL with his size and skills. He was so reliable for Derek Carr (and his super hard thrown passes). He would always make the big catches when driving, and come down with the ball for TD's all the time.
In my opinion as a fan of football, I see Cobb in a percy harbin type role, and Nelson as an Amendola type player. That only leaves Adams for the traditional WR role that I think he will excel at with Rodgers. I'm excited and hope to see him produce this year! Definitely worth drafting. I was lucky enough that he fell down to me at 2.12 in our draft a couple weeks ago. Get him if you can! Will be worth it

Re: Davante Adams
Like I said, I'm not a coach and I don't uber analyze game tape. Just my opinion as a fan who's watched the pack play a few times. My main point is that I think Adams will carve out a very nice role for himself (regardless if both Cobb and Nelson re-sign).DLFiend wrote:what in da fu....danes1212 wrote:In my opinion as a fan of football, I see Cobb in a percy harbin type role, and Nelson as an Amendola type player.

Re: Davante Adams
Putting Amendola & Nelson in the same sentence, even paragraph... is laughable.

I'll ignore your crazy comparison to touch on your greater point - Adams can definitely carve out a nice role for himself as the tertiary target in that attack. He'll put up WR2 fantasy numbers. If Adams develops appropriately, a Nelson - Cobb - Adams WR corps will probably be the best in the NFL.

Re: Davante Adams
No I agree, Nelson and Amendola have a very distinct style, it's similar to the way Welker, Decker, Wayne Chrebet, Brandon Stokely, Ed McCaffery, and Ricky Proehl played. Scrappy, smart, hard working, tough, deceptively fast, does all the little things, blue collar, plays the game the right way, real student of the game, great fundamentals, a real fan-favorite because they're such high character guys.DLFiend wrote:what in da fu....danes1212 wrote:In my opinion as a fan of football, I see Cobb in a percy harbin type role, and Nelson as an Amendola type player.
