Briggssteel Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 If someone offered me a straight up trade for Julio, Brown, Green, or Beckham, I don't know that I'd do any of those. Julio and Brown are certainly debatable but I find Julio to be boom or bust sometimes, although when he booms it's usually for a lot of points. Brown has been fine, but I don't know that he's lived up to his overall draft position. Evans while he's had 2 not so great games has been consistently good. He's usually very reliable and he gets so many targets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 He has one hell of an argument. He's top tier with Jones, Brown, OBJ, and Green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdko Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Yeah, he looked worn down and beat up during the latter part of last night's game. They really need to get some help opposite of him! As great as it is for fantasy, you need this guy healthy for the championship weeks and they're leaning on him a little too heavy right now.

Shaft Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 He's benefiting from a QB with tunnel vision. It's great for fantasy purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrelmastr21 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I think I'd go Julio #1, Evans #2, Brown #3, Green #4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 He's benefiting from a QB with tunnel vision. It's great for fantasy purposes. And playing catchup in most games. And few other weapons on offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggssteel Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) I totally agree that tunnel vision from Winston and playing catch up are a big part of his success, but those factors are why I think he's the best you can have in fantasy right now. In terms of most talented, that's a different story. You could make an argument that any of they guys I mentioned are more talented, but Evans' talent combined with circumstances are highly favorable.

As great as it is for fantasy, you need this guy healthy for the championship weeks and they're leaning on him a little too heavy right now. I wonder if part of him being gassed was that hit he took on the sideline catch. I don't know if he had a concussion from that or if that affected him. He looked totally winded on that drive though. And he still almost had a TD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and I don't think you can blame Evans for the dropped passes. He makes some pretty good grabs, it's just he has a lot of coverage on him all the time.

michaelredd9 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Evans is 4th or 5th on my list of receivers. His ceiling is as high as anyone. But he is a risk for things like drug tests, suspensions, getting out of shape, injuries from being out of shape, and off the field problems. It will take 2 or 3 straight elite years for me to value him as much as Antonio Brown or Julio Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colkurtz Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I think you're just caught up in the afterglow of his monster performance. I'd probably put him at 4th behind Julio, AJ, and Brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colkurtz Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 10 and 11 are not that different from single-digit games. He certainly has a high floor, but only 3 really good games, and Julio, AJ, and (Ben-led) Pittsburgh are in much better passing offenses.

He certainly has a high floor, but only 3 really good games, and Julio, AJ, and (Ben-led) Pittsburgh are in much better passing offenses. The ol' "if my aunt had a crank she'd be my uncle" angle. Julio has had three absolute TERRIBLE games, including a shootout with GBP where he got his owners (myself included) a whopping 5.9 ppr points. I would say the high-floor (with potential for games like last night) is better than getting 45 points one night and 5 or 6 the next. Fortunately I have both Evans AND Jones in one league so it all balances (and is often awesome, like last night). But kinda hypocritical to say "10 and 11 is just as good as single digits" ... when it's not .... and then not bang on guys like Jones who absolutely disappear every third outing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
