SaintsInDome2006 211 Posted October 25 These are all WRs stepping into new roles with their teams or new teams. Rank these replacement WRs (1, etc.) and why: Hopkins - KC Cooper - BUF Adams - NYJ McMillan - TB Sterling Shepherd - TB Tillman - CLE Jeudy - CLE Turner - LVR Meyers - LVR MVS - NO Pearsall - SF Jennings - SF Ridley - TEN - added/edit Elijah Moore - CLE - added/edit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easilyscan 687 Posted October 25 The most intriguing is Jerry Jeudy. His new role is WR #1, he's one of the few shown that stays on his team (knows the playbook) he's going to have a new QB at the helm, & they have Nick Chubb back. Will that be enough to improve these figures ? Passing Yards 30th 160 YPG Rushing Yards 28th 94 YPG Total Yards Per Game 32nd 254 YPG I won't rank them all, but if I had to choose only 1, it would be Amari Cooper. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Showboat 213 Posted October 25 Okay, I'll play. I'd rank them: Cooper - BUF - best combination of individual talent and best team situation on the list Adams - NYJ - not sure I trust Rodgers or the Jets to be able to feed so many mouths, but can't deny that he is in what should be a good situation McMillan - TB - a bit of an unknown risk, but has the opportunity to step into a WR1 role with a hot QB (we'll soon find out if that heat was solely due to previous receiving talent) Hopkins - KC - certainly has the potential to end up being the best of the bunch, but some risk on what exact role he will have and if he still has "it" Tillman - CLE - another unknown risk with the potential to step into the alpha role with Jameis slinging it Sterling Shepherd - TB - the veteran probably has a decent floor and could surprise Jeudy - CLE - might push Tillman, but i don't think he will win that battle - if he was going to breakout, I think he would have done it already Meyers - LVR - better suited to a complimentary WR2 role where someone else gets the D's attention MVS - NO - just not very good (he's been on much better teams with better QBs and not consistently produced) Turner - LVR - definition of a JAG, been around the league for four years and has never even flashed 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drogon 10 Posted October 25 If Meyers ever gets healthy. You'd think he was waiting to be traded as well. I don't think it's happening my guy lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,946 Posted October 25 Cooper Hopkins. Adams Meyers Shepherd. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmh6476 896 Posted October 26 1. Cooper - got a guy that can throw him the ball. Check his targets to receptions with Cleveland versus last week. 2. Adams- similar to above and he has rapport with Rodgers 3. Hopkins - less competition at the position around him, and should have a chance to make big contributions for a team with playmakers around him on the offense Then I'd guess someone off TB or SF as they also have good QB play and will have an opportunity for someone to step up. I'd guess McMillan then pearsall maybe (Jennings if he wasn't hurt). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
makindollaz 50 Posted October 26 Maybe my memory is fading but my recollection of Cooper in Dallas was like 5 beast games a year, about 5 where he was at/near his projection, and the other about 5 where he wasn’t much of a factor. I like him the best of the group listed, but could see similar in Buffalo. He’ll do fine most weeks, but his floor can frustrate owners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He'll put up something like 1100 yards and 7-8 TDs. About half of that production will come in 2-3 games, and the rest will be pretty evenly distributed across the rest from barely serviceable to should be on the bench. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And because you don't know which game he'll explode and which game he'll have a pedestrian stat-line you just keep rolling him out there and hope for the best.

Exactly right! Although it does seem like it's slightly more likely to happen at home and against bad teams. He does show up in big games sometimes too.

weepaws 2,946 Posted October 26 Great landing spot for Mr Cooper, one Him on both of my teams , I’m hoping for more of what he did last game. I really need him in my non ppr league, I lost Rice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
