With some other WRs getting up there in age and I'm having a hard time coming up with 10+ receivers I'd take over him. I think he could really tear it up next year. Thoughts?

Top 5 is a bit high for me. I think borderline top-10 is where he belongs.

Jennings I can see avoiding or being hesitant because of the knee and Roddy with Julio there but otherwise Wallace is still getting better and Nicks is still very young and a stud. I'll confidently draft either.

Not fair to group VJAX with DJAX. VJAX was #9 WR in standard scoring and was still in "must-start" territory for the whole season. I think Rivers dragged him down this year.

I'll draft Julio before I draft White. Julio makes White look ordinary.

His never having to do that doesn't mean it's a habit. Plenty of receivers have gotten into the NFL on freakish natural talent and only after they got into the league did they refine their skills and route running, etc. Tons of players in the NFL have big heads but most of them mature and learn to be a pro. I know he's a loose cannon right now but again I will be drafting him as an early WR2 just based on potential.

All I'm saying is if/when he matures mentally and decides to be a professional and really focus on his craft he can be the best WR in the league. I really believe that. He has all the physical tools. He just needs his head on straight. I realize that's no guarantee, but based on his potential I will have no reservations drafting him as my #2 WR next year. None.

Which is why I'll still be drafting him if I can get him as my WR 2. Because when he does learn his routes and matures, he is going to be Calvin Johnson-like

I would be excited but Shanahan is unpredictable and unconventional as we know. Also, Helu is there. And Shanahan talked about bringing back Hightower. If he were on almost any other team I would be excited. But he's someone to keep an eye on.

If Felix Jones is made of glass, Ryan Mathews is made of tissue paper. Wet tissue paper. This guy gets hurt 3 times a week during practice and then 3 more times during a game. I had him last year and he was the same way. Then when he plays he gets vultured by Tolbert. Sure, he's got "elite" talent. I guess. At least that's what everyone says. But I have yet to be "wowed" by him by the other backs that are elite. Word for the wise.

Inactive today. I rest my case.

First of all I never said he was "terrible" or a "worthless 'fockin' bum." He is clearly a good back when healthy but that's the problem. I don't think he's special. I'm surprised at how many of you are defending him so much. You clearly didn't own him last year. He is a headache and that will continue. Just remember I told you so. EDIT: I just looked up some stats. His production is so average! I can't believe you guys. He only has 2 games in his career over 100 yards if you take out the 3 games all versus Denver. Yea yea I know those games count but I think that shows something.

Uh, he was injury prone last year. He'll definitely be called just that next year and you can have him in the 4-5th be my guest.

I'd temper expectations on Antonio Brown. I don't doubt his real world talent but I don't see him scoring more than 7-8 touchdowns maximum in a season for the Steelers just like Holmes. In fact, he reminds me a lot of a young Holmes although he might be a tad smaller and have faster feet. Either way, I see Brown's fantasy value being highest in PPR. Ben clearly has a lot of chemistry with him as Brown is great at breaking off routes and getting open school-yard football style when Ben is running around outside the pocket. The catches will be there and the yards will come in big chunks but I don't see him ever being a dominant number 1 because of the lack of touchdowns. He should be a rock solid number 2 though. (From a Steelers fan)

You can't rely on Pats running backs from year to year. Ridley looks like he has promise but Vereen is lurking and Woodhead and BJGE are still around. Very crowded.

Har har that's hysterical. Old joke is old.

Yep, you should probably coach the Steelers instead.

What else do you want the guy to talk about? The only thing more annoying is everyone pointing out the obvious week after week.

It seems like such a simple solution, doesn't it?

Yea, I think it's pretty safe to say if you owned Tampa Mike this year you won't ever go near him again.

No TDs but 26 touches is fine with me. Productive game.

0 targets tonight. Pretty unbelievable. I thought he would end up with 10+ with the score the way it was.

0 targets for Mike Williams. That's pretty incredible to me. See ya later Raheem!

He's got 26 touches tonight man.

I can't believe Mike Williams doesn't even have a single target. And to think that I almost started him over Laurent Robinson.
