Walker gives over another 30ish targets (obvs all 30 won't go to Smith) combined with my thinking that the Titans will need to throw more this year (my personal opinion) than they did in 201. Also I didn't realise CD only had 69 targets although it shouldn't shock me as I own him and that seems about right, maybe I should project Smith to out target CD if all he could muster was 69.IZigUZag wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 7:30 pmHow about AJB, who only got 84 targets last season? I don't see CD getting any less than the 69 targets he got last season. With AJB's target share going up, CD's staying the same (and could easily go up with added rapport with Tannehill) I don't see a lot of targets left over for Jonnu unless he overtakes CD on the totem pole (which, again, is just not something you should expect). Everything from history, to training camp still has CD firmly locked in as the #2 option of that offense.AussieMate wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 6:39 pmI'm of the mind that CD isn't good enough to garner a huge amount targets which would give Smith a larger piece of the receiving pie if he has developed like the news coming out of camp implies, not arguing that CD won't be the no2 receiver there. If Smith can't beat out Humphries than I'd be concerned.jenkins.math wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 5:52 pm
While Corey Davis has been a major fantasy dud the Titans organization is extremely happy with Corey Davis as their number 2 option, especially in their offense. If you look at a lot of their long plays, chances are you will find CD blocking downfield. Coaches and local beat writers have talked all offseason how they think working with Tannehill now will help Davis. Nobody around the organization has stated anything other than Brown and Davis are the 1-2 in the receiving game.
I'll be utterly shocked if Jonnu has more targets than CD next year. In fact, I bet Adam Humphries has more targets than Jonnu next season.
You've convinced me, CD is now the no.3 receiver with Smith becoming Tanny's fav non Brown target!!!!!
edit: just to be clear I'm playing with you a fair bit there, I knew they didn't pass a lot but looking at their target share I can't believe its that low, top 2 receivers almost had less targets than Thomas had receptions!!!! 153 Brown/CD - 149recpt Mthomas
