Who would you rather have?
Right now Bourne is ranked full rounds below Chark in ADP. Is Bourne too low? Chark too high?
Thoughts on both in dynasty.

Re: DJ Chark vs Kendrick Bourne

Re: DJ Chark vs Kendrick Bourne
I would much rather gamble on Chark but would not count on him as a weekly safe starter.

Re: DJ Chark vs Kendrick Bourne
This is where I was too, but I got offered a late 2nd+Bourne so I took it. Not a fan of players on 1 year prove it deals. Same reasoning I sold Juju+ for a 23' 1st.Gator Sens wrote: ↑Thu Mar 31, 2022 11:29 am I would much rather gamble on Chark but would not count on him as a weekly safe starter.
I feel like Chark needs a QB willing to throw contested catches. Not sure Goff or any of the incoming rookie QBs can do that effectively. And the injury concern nuking his value/if he gets reinjured.
Bourne put up the same # of fantasy points as Jakobi Meyers on nearly half the targets. Very low-key efficient last year I think he may be in sleeper category. But yes, the upside isn't really there.

Re: DJ Chark vs Kendrick Bourne
Bourne and Meyers are both players that are not going to go crazy by themselves, but if NE ever gets a real playmaker at WR, those two could feast with the defense's focus elsewherehalfbaked88 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 31, 2022 11:51 amThis is where I was too, but I got offered a late 2nd+Bourne so I took it.

Re: DJ Chark vs Kendrick Bourne
Great cash out on JuJu. He is not a good WR and I am guessing that trade will age very well. I don't think Bourne or Chark are players you can rely on week to week, so going with your preference or who you think will be better is a decent gamble. Neither are likely to have trade value so either way I don't think you miss big here.halfbaked88 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 31, 2022 11:51 amThis is where I was too, but I got offered a late 2nd+Bourne so I took it.

Re: DJ Chark vs Kendrick Bourne
I personally think Bourne is underrated. 9 out of 10 owners will throw him in a trade and he is start able in a pinch. Chark will cost you something, and he isn't dependable, so he will let you down. That is probably my personal disappointment in him bleeding through, I was thinking he might be something last year.

Re: DJ Chark vs Kendrick Bourne
I agree with that. Chark has more upside, but they're roughly the same kind of asset to me; they're both players I want off my team in a rebuild in favor of picks. This range of WR just doesn't belong on most rebuilds imo. Better off on lottery tickets/trading up for better picks.lt1hawk337 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 31, 2022 8:04 pm I personally think Bourne is underrated. 9 out of 10 owners will throw him in a trade and he is start able in a pinch.

Getting a late 2nd in return+Bourne I had no problem down tiering from Chark. Might be able to get another late 2nd for Bourne in season.
