Sleeper - Albert Wilson?

[ninotoreS]

Wilson's worth a 3rd at the very most. I'd be a lot more comfortable buying for a 4th. He's 27, has never actually broken out to date, he was sidelined for nearly all of the offseason's prep for this season, and Miami is a candidate to have one of the worst offenses in the league in '19. Keep expectations in check, guys.

hes great until his labrum tear flares up again

He couldn’t break into fantasy relevance on the Chiefs, but he’s going to do it in Miami this year? Blah. Can’t believe anyone would even entertain the idea of a 2nd, I’ve seen him on waivers and never bothered. Not my kind of stash. Wasting a a roster spot on him may have made someone miss out on picking up P. Williams, who I’d rather burn a spot on easily.

The guy was breaking out last year in Miami before he was injured. He looked like he was playing a video game, kind of like a WR version of Kamari. He’s def worth a stash and I would pay a 3rd for him.

Food for thought:

- Dolphins QB is Ryan Fitzpatrick. Fitzpatrick led the league in yards per attempt at 9.6. There will probably be some regression, but Fitzpatrick will likely try to push the ball downfield and take chances, as he always does.
- Albert Wilson led the Dolphins last year with 11.2 yards per target.
- With Kenny Stills and Danny Amendola gone, there are 143 open targets in the Dolphins offense.
- The Dolphins project to be playing from behind...a lot.

He's more than worth a roster spot at this point. I wouldn't bank on Preston Williams being fantasy relevant right away. The best bet is either Wilson or Parker, but given Wilson's ability in the slot and as a route runner...he's easily the best receiver they have and should rack up targets.

Wilson could be en route to 100 catches if he stays healthy.

[sugbear65]

I guess I’ll be the outlier on this one then. But I’d much rather take shots at guys like Preston, J. Meyers or KeeSean Johnson over guys like Wilson, P. Richardson, or C. Beasley. Middling flex plays are a dime a dozen in season, that’s the easiest thing in dynasty to find. And that’s how I would view Wilson and those type of WR. Much rather take the longer shot gamble on unknown potential when filling out those last spots.

I guess I don't see what's so middling about him. Through seven games last season he had 15.0 YPC, 11.2 YPT, three receptions of 40-plus yards, four touchdowns. Projects to be the full-time starter in the slot this year. There's interesting upside despite an unsexy name.

x2. Wilsons an explosive YAC guy who flashed last season. His upside is more WR 2 ala Golden Tate than middling flex play

I can get behind this line of thinking. In one league dropped Trey Quinn for Preston. Somebody picks Trey up instantly. Two weeks later Rodney goes down so I quick pick up Albert. Don’t feel any different than I did before with Trey. Probably feel better actually

That's kind of misleading, his stats were ampllified by a ONE monster game against the Bears.

His snap count % jumped to 73% in week 3. From week 3 till week 7 (when he got injured for the year) he had 21.48, 6.1, 9.3, 33 and 6.6 (in the game he missed most of due to injury) in ppr; while maintaining elite efficiency.

YAC guys like Golden Tate have similar scoring patterns -- since YAC is not a very predictable stat.

While he has shown similarly efficient stats throughout his career; his "breakout" last season was definitely a small sample size, but he's a better flier than most at his current ADP

In that offense with those QB's? Doubt it. Golden Tate was also a much better player through the prime years of his career than Wilson is, and in a much better situation.

You are correct that yac is not a sticky stat. Until it is. Occasionally a wr that plays like an rb that’s good in space appears and the yac is sticky. Golden Tate is a rb. So is Albert. Every time they touch the ball something happens. If I remember correctly the chiefs really wanted to bring him back but there cap situation couldn’t allow them to offer any sort of competitive offer. Off to Miami. Blah with the location, but right off the bat he is yacing it up. He’s not as talented as Tate and is not as well built but he is talented and should push into the relevancy department if health allows. Damn health.

Is Ryan Fitzpatrick good? No. Is he good for fantasy? Yes, and he has been his entire career.
