Sean Mooney 1,115 Posted August 31, 2022 8 minutes ago, TBayXXXVII said: Fair. I disagree, but it's reasonable. I think Chark and Kirk are the same guy, one just got fed up with playing with crappy QB's while the other was able to play opposite great WR's and had a good QB. Marvin Jones is exactly who he is. I'd expect the same numbers from him regardless of what team he's on or what QB is throwing to him. Outside of that, I think the Jags cupboard is very bare. Zay Jones is garbage. Engram is garbage. Tim Jones spent last year on the practice squad. Agnew is a return guy. So, 5 WR's on their roster and only 2 are even "decent". That's very bare to me. I think Lawrence is a bust and I'd be shocked if he even finished in the top 20 in fantasy. I think this year may be similar to last year. The TD/Int numbers may be closer... I'll say 15 TD's/14 Int's... so a slight improvement. If he's a starter in the NFL past 2023, that teams' GM should be fired. I was very unimpressed with Pederson post 2017. His team was poorly coached, poorly managed, and his game day coaching was sub par. Want to make a "gentleman's bet" on it? Just a simple admission to the other that they were wrong at the end of the season? You say surprised if he finishes top 20, I said maybe top 8....split the difference at 14?...obvious caveats that bet is off if he misses significant amount of time to injury.

I'm in. 14 and over you win, 15 and under I win. If he plays at least 10 games, I'm ok with using his average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,060 Posted August 31, 2022 4 hours ago, Sean Mooney said: 2021- Jones Jr, Chark, Shenault, Tavon Austin, Jamal Agnew 2022- Kirk, Jones Jr, Zay Jones, Tim Jones, Jamal Agnew Kirk is much better than where Chark was anymore. Zay Jones is a better version of Tavon Austin. Jones/Agnew is a wash against Shenault/Agnew. So they are better. Not sold that Kirk is better then Chark, but I guess if he plays more then three games he would be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,060 Posted August 31, 2022 2 hours ago, Sean Mooney said: THe biggest issue with Kirk is going to be he is probably a #2 receiver being paid like a #1. He is also primarily a slot guy to this point and if they are going to ask him to play outside I'm not 100% how that will work. But Chark had 1 monster season but overall Kirk's numbers are better Chark career- 43 games (40 starting) 265 targets, 147 receptions, 2042 yards and 15 touchdowns Kirk career- 56 games (41 starting), 358 targets, 236 receptions, 2902 yards, and 17 touchdowns Kirk had an a better Qb situation, plus he wasn’t used as a wr1, Chark always has had injuries where he missed a lot of games , or nagging injuries that disrupted his performance, I think Chark is the better player. Jags are simply trying to make Kirk who’s a wr3 into a one, m Jones might still be the better ff producer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brutal Brutus 182 Posted August 31, 2022 The biggest change for Tlaw is that he now appears to have a competent coaching staff going into year 2. He's mobile which is always a good start, it's just a matter if they can move the ball consistently. Top 5 might be a stretch, but I'll buy into the idea that this will be the year he becomes relevant for fantasy. I haven't dug into their route tree's but Kirk is 5'11 and Chark is 6'4, something tells me they're going to be used differently. That debate seems moot to me.

No Kirk is not a wr2, he’s a wr3 being paid as a wr1, like I said if he plays in more than three games he’s already better than Chark. But no question Chark is the more talented player.
