Irvin088 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) Was able to sneak Hopkins for peanuts at the end of an auction draft since nobody had given much of a thought to him. What are expectations for his return? My WR depth right now is Evans/AJ Brown/Allen Robinson, so I’m okay there. Would you start Hopkins over any of them? 10 team traditional scoring Edited August 27, 2022 by Irvin088 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdybaz Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 He's good insurance to have in case any of your top 3 get injured during the year. DHop wasn't doing great last year but it may have been due to a lingering injury, or Murray was just spreading the ball around more. He's a good gamble, so when he comes back I would wait to see how he does and how involved he is with the offense before starting him.

League_Champion Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 It's a good depth move and anything else would be a bonus. Nice move! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSMike Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I was just getting ready to make a post about him. In a $200 auction draft his average draft value is $5. In a 15 game regular season (not even counting playoffs) his 6 game suspension is 40% of the season. Interpolating that based on $5 average value implies he would be an $8 player if he were playing a full season. You'll have to commit a roster spot to him for 6 games obvi, but that's still an absolute steal IMO. If his suspension is somehow reduced and/or if you factor in having him for the playoffs, he's being valued even cheaper. Not sure how much he went for in your league, but damn if I don't love the upside and potential bang for your buck here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8rattoon Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Nice snag. He'll be dependable at the least when he returns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent all $200, but tried to save just a buck or two above everyone else so I can get a steal or sleeper I’m high on at the end. Worked out! It’s a keeper league so who knows he may be worth keeping if he doesn’t totally fall off this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
