Where's Odell? Odell is possibly the NFL's most explosive receiver. I'd say 1. Brown, 2. Jones, 3. Beckham Jr., 4. Hopkins, 5. Green. Allen is too inconsistent for me to call him Top 5. He might be a Top 5 receiver on this year's "Top 100 Players of 2017" though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, though. I'd still put Beckham over Allen, just not over Hopkins if he were to underperform with a different quarterback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaqOptic Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I will need Keenan to at least do it again. Honestly, I probably want two more years out of him. I would say it stacks up something like this... 1.) Brown --- 2. Julio 3.) Beckham Jr. 4.) Hopkins --- 5.) Green 6.) Evans --- 7.) Allen --- 8. Hilton 9. Thomas 10.

Kip Smithers Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 If you ignore injuries, which I do because that’s the Only thing stopping him, then I’d say he is in the 5-10 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
43M Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Keenan is great. Was a big fan of his coming out. However, he is not top 5 and doesnt even really have an argument if only because of his injuries. And no, Im not saying "He is overrated because he might get hurt". but availability is UNDERRATED. I know he played all year this year, and that will go a long way to getting him into the top 5.....but he needs to stay on the field to overtake some of the guys ahead of him..

Jakuvious Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I think no. Just outside by a bit. I'd have Brown, Jones, Hopkins, OBJ, and Green as my top 5. Probably Evans at #6. Allen would be in the next tier there along with T.Y. Hilton and Michael Thomas, and I think Adam Thielen and Tyreek Hill are breaking into that tier as well after this season. Two things keep Allen below the guys above him, for me. Durability, is the obvious one, though he's just one healthy season away from wiping that problem off his resume. Beside that, Allen just doesn't strike me as the downfield threat that the top couple of guys are. Brown is a beast all-around, Jones has that height/speed combo downfield, Hopkins is very fast and borderline unstoppable on contested catches, OBJ has the speed, Green and Evans have the size and vert. I don't see anything in Allen yet that scares me deep. One of the best route runners in football, excellent with YAC, but he doesn't demand a S over the top the way your typical top 5 guys do. His 3 longest catches this year, IIRC, were all around 40 - 50 yards, and it was a flea flicker, and two 10 - 15 yard passes with 30ish yards of YAC. That to me is the one dimension he needs to add to his game if he's going to be considered with especially the top 4, Brown, Jones, Hopkins, and a healthy OBJ.

No, definitely not in the conversation with those guys yet... and I would add OBJ and Evans too. I would say Keenan Allen is in the group of WRs following those 6, along with Michael Thomas, Thielen, DT, Hilton, among others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ward4HOF Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I'm curious as to how those who criticize Allen for missing too much time are ok with the amount of time that OBJ has missed. Allen has missed 32.5% of available games; OBJ has missed 26.5%...a mere 6% difference of games, or, the difference of 1 game per season. I'm just saying that for those ok with the time OBJ has missed, should be ok with the time Allen has missed, and base them on their merits. If the time missed is too much, then Iwould think the time missed by OBJ would be as well. I personally think OBJ is the better WR, overall, but I would place Allen at the edge of the top 5...maybe 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do we have to wait to see him with a new quarterback? That doesn't make sense, particularly given we are talking about right now (meaning it would be based on what they've shown to this point).
