tecklc2112 7 Posted November 20, 2012 For those of us in keeper leagues, who is next year's Demaryius Thomas? In other words, who is sitting on most waiver wires right now that can be picked up, kept for cheap & produce like an early/mid round pick next season? I picked up Thomas late last season & kept him at a ridiculously cheap 12th round cost, hoping he would become a stud this season. That move has obviously paid off big time. Who should this year's targets be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boseshy 0 Posted November 20, 2012 DX and Garcon come to mind, although I doubt either is on waivers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Mueller 146 Posted November 20, 2012 I kind of don't think there are any freakishly physically gifted 3rd year wide receivers with plans to play with a new HOF QB next year. That said the obvious choice is Blackmon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tecklc2112 7 Posted November 20, 2012 Kendall Hunter has been dropped in many leagues...Does anyone think he has a shot to take the reigns from Gore next year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skinny_Bastard 154 Posted November 20, 2012 Randall Cobb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tecklc2112 7 Posted November 20, 2012 Randall Cobb I agree Cobb will be an excellent & cheap keeper if you took him late in this year's draft...Problem is he's rostered in every league & can only be had via trade. I'm thinking more of guys that are still on many waiver wires, but have the potential to breakout next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lesjroza 70 Posted November 20, 2012 Randall Cobb Kendall Wright IS next year's Cobb. I was going to do a whole thread on it, maybe later. He will not be on WW but the sentiment in general on him is way to Meh and he can be had far too cheap from most unsuspecting owners. Work ethic was a question mark coming out so keep an eye on his reports over the winter for redraft but he is a great risk/reward right now and if you have a mid first round pick in the 2013 rookie draft to give it's a no-brainer.

jgcrawfish 232 Posted November 20, 2012 RB's K Hunter D Richardson D Wilson WR's: J Blackmon K Wright J Gordon P Garcon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chronic Husker 85 Posted November 20, 2012 Thomas was a legit 1st round pick that blossomed with better qb play. The two that come to mind (both with similar frames and skills) are Blackmon and Jon Baldwin. Both probably have potential to be elite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookieG 4 Posted November 20, 2012 TY Hilton I like this call. Reggie.. God bless him is getting long in the tooth.. and Avery is always hurt. This kid is explosive.. wait until he really learns his craft. His young QB ain't so bad either. I also really like D. Richardson. Fisher knows how to get a running game going, SJax will be gone.. and this dude looks electric to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUsualSuspect 207 Posted November 21, 2012 Both are a stretch but have the talent and physical attributes to be successful with the right QB in 2013... Alshon Jeffery and Michael Floyd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boilermaker04 11 Posted November 21, 2012 D. Alexander. Though if that door was still open this weekend just slammed it shut. Shorts has been very strong with a bad QB. Hilton is nice call. The kid on MN that played in Harvin's absence. Can't think of his name and feeling too lazy to look it up. Maybe Golden Tate? Hillman or Ball, and cross your fingers they become the lead back next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stewburtx8 67 Posted November 21, 2012 Some good names mentioned so far. I'll bring up someone who hasn't played this year: Vincent Brown. He had a tremendous off season and training camp and was expected to be a BIG part of the Chargers offense this year. Then he hurt his ankle in the 2nd preseason game and hasn't been able to get on the field this year. If healthy, he could be a big part of the Chargers offense NEXT year.

I stashed VBrown for about 6 weeks until DX started struttin his stuff. Not sure there will be enough balls for Floyd, DX, Brown, Gates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
southcarolina 166 Posted November 21, 2012 3rd year WR in 2013 Leonard Hankerson Jeremy Kerley (ok maybe the next Wes Welker, not Demaryus Thomas)) Greg Salas (Maybe really the next Wes Welker) Not a 3rd year WR in 2013, but based purely on freakish athleticism Steven Hill. Here is another name: Rob Housler (TE) 6'6" and 250 lbs, runs a 4.5 40 and has a 38 inch vertical jump. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rallo 132 Posted November 21, 2012 Vincent Brown will be worth a late flyer. He looked to be the best offensive player on the chargers heading into the last game of the preseason... after a recovery from an ankle break the charger WRs could be looking pretty good assuming it's DX,floyd, and brown... couple that with gates and rivers could be worth a look again.

tecklc2112 7 Posted November 21, 2012 Great stuff everyone. Stephen Hill is a guy I had not thought of at all, but I agree that if things fall into place, he could be a sneaky pickup for next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marksy68 0 Posted November 22, 2012 I cannot believe that with the latest announcements out of Detroit, this guy has not been mentioned yet. Not well known and I would guess very much available - Ryan Broyles! He's a rookie, 2nd round pick and after Titus's latest antics, it is clear he is on his way out. Broyles should be the # 2 guy next year opposite arguably the best receiver in the game. He is touted to have a very good game tomorrow. We shall see.
