polecatt 474 Posted December 24, 2021 As of right now, 2021 week 16, who is the best WR in the NFL? This question has been bouncing around the past week or so, on various media outlets, so what's your take? I say it's Cooper Kupp, some say Davante Adams, some say Justin Jefferson, or someone else. Who is it, for fantasy football, and just football in general? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 3,158 Posted December 24, 2021 I don’t think one can truly say who’s the best nfl wr. To many variables. Best ff wr is very simple, Kupp. He has the most ff points at the wr position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WR Guru 31 Posted December 24, 2021 Deebo is making a strong case, having the year he's having with a curtain jerker like Jimmy G throwing him the ball. Imagine him with a superior passer, like Rodgers or Stafford. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who is it, for fantasy football, and just football in general? I think the question as you asked it leaves to many variables to just pick one. I would phrase the question if you were starting an NFL team and could pick any WR at the same salary who would you choose? For me that would be tough to answer but I think I'd pick Justin Jefferson.

TheUsualSuspect 207 Posted December 24, 2021 This topic encouraged me to look up league leaders thus far this season. I was surprised to see that Ertz has 70 rec going into tomorrow night. I would have guessed he was in the 40-50 range. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 14,966 Posted December 24, 2021 Kupp is having an all time year. But I have to go with D Adams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I were starting a dynasty team or something like that, Justin Jefferson or Ja'Marr Chase would be my pick. I don't think you could go wrong withe either Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serenity Now 63 Posted December 25, 2021 A lot of ways to look at this, but if there’s 3 seconds left in the Super Bowl and I need a wr to make a 10 yard TD catch, Adams or Hopkins. If I need someone to make a 40+ yard run after the catch, It’s probably someone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Situational- 4th and 3- Cooper Kupp 4th and goal at the 10- Hopkins or Adams are good Any sort of deep ball, run after the catch, etc.- Tyreek Hill Long jump ball- DK Metcalf, Michael Gallup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray_T 740 Posted December 25, 2021 the best WR is a harder question to answer. from what I am seeing most interpret this as the most productive WR. the most productive isnt necessarily the best. there are things some WR do that dont show up on a scoresheet. (like blocking) not all WR do it. even fewer do it well, but its important. as for the most productive, I think its Kupp hands down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree with you from a longevity point, but if you have to pick a WR, and you only get 1 year, I'd say the answer is Adams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adams just looks like a guy who gets open and could dominate with almost any decent qb... sorry Baker, Lawrence, and other trash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 3,158 Posted December 25, 2021 To many variables to pick the best nfl wr. Most productive Kupp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skinny_Bastard 157 Posted December 25, 2021 D. Adams hands down. Kupp is good but just a by product of a good offensive system,. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
