Mike Floyd vs Deandre hopkins

[jagsguy92]

What is really the difference here?

[DonBrazi]

In my mind it's upside. I think Floyd has the ability to carry an offense. Hopkins, I think, is a great role player or complementary piece in a dynamic offense. Were he to be THE guy on any team, I think he'd get shut down. In terms of fantasy production, I'd say Floyd has top-5 potential, while Hopkins has more like 8-12 potential. Not the biggest difference. And depending on what you think of their respective situations, I could see an argument for either one. At the same time, I think the difference would be something like a mid-1st: Floyd = Hop/1st.

[ThirdWW]

I agree, for me to downgrade I'd need a first, based on value. If
I'm a contender with a strong core I wouldn't make that trade as I'd be looking to package players for a stud.

Nuk by a mile. I never bought into the Floyd hype at all. Looks what Nuk did last year with those QBs and when Andre was hurt and he was the #1.

just traded floyd + moncrief for hopkins. I feel like i gave a lot but I like Nuk.

[DonBrazi]

I'd still say the same thing I did last year except now I'd have the 1st on the other side (the market being what it is and all).

[Doggie]

Up until last year I was more impressed with Floyd.
However, now it's Hopkins by quite a bit

[Franky Four Fingers]

Hopkins easily. He is the younger player and looks like the better wr. Floyd May be a better athlete but I'm not sure he has the same ceiling.

[FantasyFreak]

I think Floyd has a higher ceiling, but a lower floor. I am interested to see if his usage is different this year. They are keeping FItz, but I think Fitz will be more and more of a possession, short route guy. I'm really hoping they work Floyd on the intermediate routes more this year, they ran him in a straight line too often last year, and his routes became too predictable IMO.

Ill take Hopkins easily hands down. I think the ceiling and floor talk is bogus, Hopkins is just a better wide receiver IMO.

Hopkins. Younger, and he has put more on the field at this point. You can talk about who is the better athlete, but it doesn't mean much when the other guy is a better football WR.

Just Traded Mike Floyd+3rd 2016 for J. Jones +2.02. He just can't run a route tree, just does vertical routes all the time.
