Has everyone given up on Marqise Lee in Jacksonville or does he have a bright future w/ Bortles? I am worried about the injuries but I loved him coming out of college.

I've tried to acquire him in my leagues but nobody is selling. At least the people I play with don't just give up on someone after their rookie year. Most WRs take 3-4 years to mature and break out. The past two years of breakout rookie receivers with big years is not the norm. I'm a buyer if anyone would sell. :mrgreen:

With the addition of J. Thomas and TJ Yeldon to the team, I find it hard for Marqise Lee to carve out a meaningful roll in this offense. Maybe if they had more than 25 redzone attempts per year there would be a better chance for him but I just don't see it right now.

Agreed, for this year and maybe next. But this is dynasty and long term. He'll be a free agent in just 3 short years and possibly off to another team and a better situation. Or Bortles takes the next step and the addition of the other talent is a good thing like it is on other good teams. ARob will be double-teamed, Julius streaking up the seem, play action with a good RB and Lee singled covered all alone for big gains. I can see it as the team slowly gets itself together.

Bottom line he is a talent and certainly not worth giving up on. I've been trying to buy him for a 3rd as that's about his value currently, but everyone either wants a high 2nd or won't sell at all. So he's certainly still worth a bit, at least in all my leagues. Does he pan out at that value? Who knows.

As an owner in a league with deep rosters I am simply not selling at current prices - He is a hold. If he does nothing I got him cheap (mid 2nd round last years draft), but he has the potential to put up decent numbers in a year or 2. He is an investment at this point.

Was never really a believer. I like R. Greene at his price much better.

Not giving up but I wouldn't buy unless he was super cheap and I wouldn't sell him for super cheap, so if I owned him I'd hold. Not overly optimistic though. I think Greene fits Bortles better cause he's a much better route runner than Lee. Robinson will be the #1 there, J-Thomas there now. Seems like too many things need to happen for him to actually have an impact.

I like him better than Allen Robinson.

Very against the grain.

I used to like him more than Allen Robins, but then I watched them both play in the NFL and I changed my mind.

I traded Lee in one league because I acquired Robinson in another Trade. I ended up getting a 3rd, 4th, and a 2016 3rd I believe. Not a great haul by any means, but I didn't need him on the team and I needed to clear a roster spot.

He was drafted earlier, he started ahead of Robinson, he had an excuse for not playing great once he returned (injury), and I've posted numerous times why I don't like Allen Robinson's production, including his low YPC and terrible YAC.

Go down to the comparison tool, plug in Arob and Lee. The results might shock you... not.

I plugged in Allen Robinson and Lee. I also compared Demaryius Thomas to Dwayne Bowe. What exactly am I suppose to get from both sets of results?
