Mmm, Waddle and Sutton, both of them can't be higher than a wr3. Imo

Why's that?  Bo Nix lead the NFL last year in pass attempts and 3rd in completions.

the guy likely to lose out in this is Franklin.  Im sure his targets drops.

too bad.  I saw him as a possible breakout candidate up until now.     I cant see it happening now.

That was my thinking as well.

Franklin will still be involved, but, I'm not going to take Waddle or Sutton any higher than a high wr3

I'm sure he will, but I don't think he's getting the volume.  I can see both Sutton and Waddle getting 110 to 130 targets and Franklin getting around 60.  You don't pay one dude a boat load of cash to stay (Sutton), then give up a lot of picks and a boat load of cash to acquire someone (Waddle), and not feature both of them.  It was this group that did both deals.  It's not like a prior regime did them.

Agreed, I'm not taking either of them higher than a high wr3, now in a 14 team league, I would move that up to wr2. Everything is different in a bigger league

Sutton last season without Waddle,  was 22nd in ppr, and 23 in non ppr avg per game, that's high wr3, I don't see one gaining more than that with both Sutton and Waddle together, toss in Engram, Franklin, And Harvey, and I think Harvey will be much better than last season, his rookie year,  high wr3.  Thanks

Then you're going to miss out on 2 WR's who'll likely finish in the top 20.

Haven't seen that happen yet, Sutton didn't finish top 20 when we was without Waddle, but again, in my two 14 team leagues, that changes their ranking, so wr2 in a big league like 14 teams, but anything smaller, high wr3

I don't think Sutton is a WR1, but Waddle certainly showed he can be.  Pairing the two could yield 2 WR's with over 80 receptions, 1100+ yards, and 8+ TDs.  That would put both in the Top 16 in most seasons... top 10 for both, last year.

So basically the total Sutton had last season, he was just a little short of those numbers, but not by much he played 17 games, he was 22nd in ppr, 23rd non ppr avg per game, can't see that changing with Waddle on the team, I think they will cancel each other out from being top 20. Unless I see different going forward, I'll stick to high wr3, but  wr2 in a 14 team league

I think both Sutton and Waddle can be in the #20 +/- WR range. Sutton being more consistant with his numbers weekly.  Waddle having more big games, but being more up and down weekly. Sutton gets the receptions and Waddle gets the yards.

This is why you don’t draft a WR until week 6.

I’ll take Sutton to be the one you want especially in PPR.  With Waddle there to stretch the field as a true threat things will open up more for Sutton.  Think back to Sean Payton’s years in NO where guys like Colston, Thomas, and Graham were league winners.  The 6’4” Sutton fits that bill.

I can see that.  I see a comparison of the 2014 Bucs with Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans.  Waddle is your Vincent Jackson deep ball threat and Sutton is you Mike Evans 50/50 ball/end zone threat.  Even in a year with Josh McCown & Mike Glennon, both had over 1000 yards.  Or, a Jacksonville comparison, this is a Jimmy Smith / Keenan McCardell situation.

I think Sutton can be a 90 / 1100 / 9 guy and Waddle be a 75 / 1300 / 6 guy... where both fall somewhere between 10 and 15.  I think both are gone by the 4th round.

Waddle would be the one i would take first, he's the better player and playmaker  .

correct.   if you believe in the 'follow the money theory'  Sutton and Waddle are in.   Franklin out.

with Waddle there, I could see sutton getting less double teams.

so I think his numbers improve.    to what degree I cannot say, but I dont think Waddles presence hurts his value

You can make a case for either as your favorite.  I think TBay is spot on that they’ll both do well together.  I also think the situation will generate enough of a cloud of doubt to keep both of their ADPs as reasonable.  The real winner is Nix.  To all the views in this topic that Nix isn’t good enough to hold up the value of these guys is where people are just wrong.  This is a high volume pass offense.  Nix is going to put up big fantasy numbers just by default.  Plus his legs keeps plays alive long enough for his receivers to get open.  And I could also see a path to stacking the three of them with a true RB1 in round one, and an above average RB2 or true WR1 in round two to put together a roster that could dominate.

They are a run 1st offense. He won't get the targets needed to make him a WR1.

A First, Third and Fourth round pick is WR1 round draft capital. 

If he's not a WR1 then what should he be at that price?

He has a round 3 grade right now, that's a WR1 

I think he's more of a WR3 

You??

I'm seeing Waddle being listed a as wr21, that's a low wr2.

you are correct.  if you dont know wr to bet on, and for one reason or another feel like one but not both will produce, then the right answer is to invest in the QB instead.
