Mike Evans vs Keenan Allen

Recommended Posts

Picking 3rd in a ppr 14 team keeper draft. Best available WR are Dez, Allen and Mike Evans. I probably won't get dez and I will be choosing between Allen vs Evans. Even in mocks I'm choosing between the two. I'm really feeling Mike Evans, at 6'5 I think he will be back this year but Keenan gets a crap load of targets but has that injury history. Who u guy like between the two?

I like Allen a little bit more .

 

Main reason is because I like Rivers more than I like Winston .

Since it's a keeper league, I think the safer pick is Evans because he's been healthier and should have the same QB for the next 10 years. Rivers may only have 3 or 4 left and so may Allen (based on his injury history). Evans is likelier to stay healthy, but by seasons end, will have the better QB. That said, Allen has shown that when he's on the field, he's a better player.

Evans simply because Allen cannot stay on the field, otherwise it would be Allen all day for me. Evans is a virtual lock for 1200-1300 yards as a floor...

Evans. It's not really that I'm down on Allen, I'm high on Evans.

He's a big talent and I believe Jameis Winston starts to get better and he benefits.

Allen by a long shot. I dropped Evans to 19th on my WR board since his stone hands have re-appeared in pre-season this year.

This is dumb. The answer is Dez.

Allen has one one serious (freak) injury which kept him out for yes, 8 games.

 

Otherwise, he and Evans had pretty similar rookie and sophomore seasons.

Wasn't he hurt the year before as well? Ankle?

Also his rookie and sophmore seasons were not even close to mike evans. It's Evans for me and he has a higher yards and td ceiling.

Played 14 games, it memory serves.

 

Probably equates to Evans' constant hamstring woes last season.

To say they aren't even close is not objective, nor factual.

 

Per game stats for their 1st and 2nd years.

 

Evans - 4.73 rec 75.23 yards 0.5 TDs

 

Allen - 5.1 rec 70.8 yards 0.42 TDs

 

Looks close to me.

i know its preseason but if you google keenan allen news there is a nice article about how allen scored touchdown after touchdown in chargers cardinals scrimmage vs Patrick Peterson

 

PP even said Keenan Allen is really good and owned up to getting beat.

 

I know this post will draw the critics but thought it was worth noting.

You're right. I misread the post. Sorry about that. Given that, I take the guy with the better QB, who can't run. I go Rivers.

That may not be the case going forward.
