Anyone else think the final Horn has blown?

Two weeks have gone by and your ready to give up. I would wait at least another few weeks. Stash him on the pine if you can. That O is clicking right now.

 

 

He's definitely riding the pine...I just don't see the burst off the snap anymore...I'd be floored if he had a 70 / 900 / 6 performance this year...

Agree with the numbers (actually I'd be surprised if he exceeds 60 receptions or 800 yds), but not for the reason. His physical skills have not diminished a bit. However, there are alot more consistent weapons around him, plus he no longer has a QB who locks onto him and only him.

Ya I realize we're only two weeks in, however I drafted Horn with midrange #2 receiver expectatations: 60-70 yards a week with the occasion 100 yards and a score game thrown in there. The emergence of Bush, Henderson and now Colston in the passing game made me lower those expectations drastically. I get the feeling that his Week 1 statline (2 rec. 25 yds) was no fluke, and he may throw together a handful of those types of efforts as the season progresses and he faces some of the league's tougher corners.

 

If you have depth at reeciver, Horn is a more than adequate #3 and in some weeks #2 option, however if you are in a situation like I was, where my only other options off the bench were Moulds and Mike Clayton, I'd suggest moving him while you can. I was able to move him in a deal this week which brought me back Stallworth as I felt the need to upgrade at #2 WR. If you are banking on Horn for 80 catches and 1100 yards I'd re-evaluate those expectations ASAP and see if you can go younger

Joe Horn has been screwing FF players for years now. Well, last year anyway. But it felt like a hundred years. He's getting old, and definitely slowing down.

 

I'm sure he'll have 1 or 2 120 yard games this season, but so will an ATL receiver :D

 

 

He was hurt last year and did a decent WR#2 the year before that (if my memory is correct).

 

Horn is a good WR2-3 IMO
