Greg C. Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 So coming into the season, it seemed like we had Adams who is a #1 and Cobb and Allison who are both #3's, but now I'm thinking that maybe Cobb and Allison could both be more like 2.5's, which would average out to a 2 and a 3, you know? So I think these three can carry the load, especially with Jimmy Graham in the mix. (Graham's presence clearly had a lot to do with freeing them up against the Bears.) What we don't know is how the rookies will perform if pressed into service when there is an injury. That's why I would like to see Valdes-Scantling, at least, getting some snaps early in the season if possible. He was only on the field for two plays against the Bears.

MacReady Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 Andy Dalton ten times better QB than Matt Ryan. Got Green a red zone TD. I'll show myself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redt Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 There is way more to football than physical traits, at this level it is all about confidence and intelligence, physical traits only take you so far intelligence is forever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure anyone expected the rookies to see snaps in such a tightly contested game. I’m not sure we’ll see much of them this wkd either tbh.

craig Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Agree. Barring blowouts or debilitating injuries to the three starters, the rookies aren't going to get many, if any, snaps. Which is fine and good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show us that you mean it. Drop Matt Ryan from your fantasy team. #Elite QB Joe Flacco is available, put in a claim and I'm sure you'll have him by next Wednesday. To be fair, it's hard for Ryan to get it done when he doesn't have any "elite" weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may not have as many TD’s as other elite receivers, but I wouldn’t drop him out of the elite category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'twas a joke. Green font next time. This has been (unfortunately) an ongoing conversation with H2Z, who seems to be convinced that Julio isn't elite because of redzone production (like he can throw the ball to himself). Julio is (clearly) elite. I think he's the best WR in the NFL, although AB and Odell clearly have their own arguments. Green is no slouch either.
