Cameron the fantasy steal of the draft?


Endzone Is Near

31 targets, 20 receptions, almost 270 yards and 4TDs in 3 games...those are some great numbers, I don't see them holding up all season though.

 

Being in a local league in the Cleveland area he was drafted pretty high.

 

I sure as heck hope they don't hold up, considering the circumstances, lol. As for Cook, who knows, I guess they game plan him and he's human again.

My concern here is first they traded Richardson. Now according to what I've read on other sites, they have an offer on the table for Gordon. If Cleveland pulls that trigger - the only real offensive threat is Cameron. If that happens, other teams will focus on stopping him and that would pretty much shut down his fantasy value.

 

And as a Cameron owner in one league, this concerns me.

My first thought, too... but really, when you think of it... Week 1 no one knew this guy would drop 9 for 108 and a score (13 targets). Week 2, after there was some film on the guy, he was "only" 5 for 95 (7 targets). :unsure:

 

I'm not saying he's going to automatically go from a TE1 to a TE2 based on Gordon's possible departure... but perhaps a slight tick-down in value against tougher Ds would certainly be merited IMO.

I can't imagine that's a true threat. They have a young, by all indications stud on their hands. They are going to need to give their alleged franchise-QB-to-be all the weapons they can. Richardson didn't fit the "franchise QB > all" theory, fine, but having stud WR's compliments that, not contradicts it. He's also not even likely to bring in a top-dollar kind of offer with all the risk attached given his suspension history - I can't see anyone giving up more than a 4th rounder or so, and that just shouldn't even be in the Browns' ballpark. If that's all they are going to get, they may as well just take the risk themselves, because the potential rewards looks like it could be enormous.

Drafted him and picked up Thomas. My logic was that he's in a much more productice offense. And despite how CLV looked this weekend, with Richardson gone they're even worse. Not saying he'll be a bum but from what I've seen of the other player / offense I went another direction.

SO wishing I had drafted Cameron instead of Cook this year. After the week 1 performance from Cook, I felt like a genius. Now I feel like a bum...Cameron could have really been my X-factor and congrats to those of you who drafted him.

 

Going into week 2 I was offered a trade where I could have had Cook or Cameron. I took Cook.. :(
