darin3 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Was is he only 51st among WR? There are several ahead of him that I would easily put him before. With Roddy White certainly being one of them. I understand Jones being out gives him more looks, but to say he's worthy of being ranked ahead of guys like Andre Johnson, Decker, Hilton and even Allen is pretty koo-koo.

Tripleshot Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I might be seeing things as a jaded Allen owner, but it sure looks like he's become Rivers go to guy. Rivers seems to look for him on important third downs and in the end zone. Pretty impressive for a rookie, but then again, had he not had an injury concern during the draft he should have been a first rounder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 No. Actually, I just dropped Mike Williams for Keenan Allen the other day. DeAndre for Allen here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wpob Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I mean would you take any of the WRs below before Keenan Allen? Mike Williams Vincent Brown Bowe Avery Emmanuel Sanders Austin Tate Royal Marlon Brown Hopkins Santonio Holmes No, and this comes from a Vincent Brown and a Deandre Hopkins owner. I really had high hopes for Brown this year but it looks like he has been passed - and pretty quickly - by Allen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faceplant Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I'm glad someone put Bowe on the list above. That means he's due for a 100+yd 2TD performance before early winter hibernation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 so, i'm thinking that ranking allen at about 40th or possibly higher, considering his and rivers' play this season, is probably more appropriate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j2v Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 ROS rankings are compiled Monday, so Allen had just the one 100-yard game when these were done. Essentially, based on the Monday night game, I'd flip flop Vincent Brown and Allen; I had anticipated Brown was working into the Chargers' WR1 role and Allen was the WR2, but it looks like that will be reversed. 2V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen had faced the Cowboys and Raiders, 2 weaker pass defenses in the prior weeks when he had a 6 target, 5 rec for 80 yard game and a 9 target, 6 rec for 115 yards and 1 TD game. Then he followed it up with 12 targets, 9 rec for 107 yards and a TD. The guy is hot and looks to stay that way with Gates running the middle, Mathews still healthy and running well, along with Woodhead pulling coverage out of the backfield and having Vincent Brown and Royal holding down the other side. I like him... A LOT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Company of Heroes Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I've got a lot riding on Allen after losing Julio a week after trading for him. Glad I dropped the last of my FAAB and was able to snag him. I need him as a WR2 for the ROS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endzone Is Near Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 That is where I see him on another site's rest of season rankings. True. I have seen him there on other sites as well. So while I agree that people are sleeping on him big time, can't really blame the huddle when that's pretty much the norm right now. He will finish top 20.

I'm cautiously optimistic so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
