Will Fuller

Being roasted for it

Personally I also like th Brown/Carroo side, but not like it is way off.
My reasoning is that while Fuller is good he is for me no more than a WR3.

[guava jelly]

the time to buy fuller is now, good trade (especially if Romo slides over to Houston )

[skip]

Definitely prefer Fuller.

Carroo is nothing more than a flier at this point (on the ww in a few of my leagues), and while J. Brown was good last season, this season he's be anything but.

Whereas Fuller flashed in a big way early on. In the first four games Fuller had 323 yrds and 2 TDs. Talent like that doesn't just disappear. He hit a wall due to injury, and poor qb play, so now all the Fuller doubters (and there was alot in the predraft process) are coming out of the woodwork again.

It's not like he's been a slouch, he is 2nd for rookies in receiving yards, only behind Michael Thomas. That's with half as many receptions; 35 for Fuller (on 67 targets), compared to 69 for Thomas (on 89 targets). And I think we can all agree that a target from Brees is more likely to hit the mark than one from Brock. Imagine if Fuller had brees tossing him the ball...

If they manage to upgrade the QB position somehow, then watch out, the kids a playmaker.

Fuller side for me

[BelichekYourSelf]

Brown and Carroo side very easily for me.

John Brown could feasibly be the WR1 for the cardinals next season and Carroo has talent.
Fuller is so inconsistent and drop prone that he is pretty much unstartable, he'll never be more than a boom/bust WR3.

[Crwdstunna]

I tend to agree that Fuller will only be a boom or bust guy. Brown will likely be at least a WR2 for Arizona next year and Carroo has talent

[BuckeyeNation]

Fuller for me and I'm not thinking twice about it.

[pocylpse]

Brown/Carroo for me.

John Brown is severely limited this year due to his sickle cell. Once that is under control then he will be back to his old self.

[Servo]

Carson Palmer hasn't looked good but neither has John Brown, guy was/is getting passed up for Jaron Brown, JJ Nelson, etc...factor in concussions/implications from sickle cell...dunno, that doesn't seem like a recipe for success.

Yes, Fuller had some injuries he dealt with this season but looking past that, Oz is so terrible no one could step in (outside of their check-down TE play), Braxton Miller, Strong was inept/hurt.

Either way, there's a chance both of these guys are looking at new QBs in the near future but Brown's lack of production and getting on the field has me far more concerned than Fuller, who has shown explosive talent...with a bad QB that nuked Hopkins as well.

As you should be...yikes!!

[BuckeyeNation]

I'm really surprised how many people are this high on John Brown. I guess I can see if people want Brown over Fuller, but the comments saying that it's insane to give Brown/Carroo for Fuller is pretty head scratching to me. To each their own I guess.

Here is how I see this...the only difference between Carroo and Fuller right now is opportunity. How many times do we see a guy come out of the gate fast and then cool off only to realize he was a total flash in the pan.

Even if you prefer Fuller's opportunity, it can't be by much. Carroo could easily be matching what Fuller has done this year if he were in Houston. This is almost a free John Brown to me, who I think bounces back next year after he gets his health in order.

Fuller just hasn't dazzled me at all, but I was never a believer. I traded him after Week 4/5 for Terrance West and a 2017 2nd and haven't thought about him since. Now he fell into the late 2nd where I grabbed him so I took a free Terrance West and expect a better prospect in the draft than a guy with tiny hands and a drop problem.

I agree.
