I changed my mind....do it!

Done.

Geez you settled for Cooper? Gruden is going to run the damn ball. Cooper is not going to shine in that offense. You realize Ehb is redskin fan...right? You should of asked for Allen or Adams. On the bright side Guice is going to be a bust, so you got that working for you.

The problem there is Lynch and Martin are old and washed up, and they have shitty D, so the pass attempts will be ample, maybe not crazy high, but definitely more than whatever Chucky would ideally like to see

I don’t see that offense being productive, do you?

Don't see why the passing game won't be. Great pass pro Oline, excellent receiving options, the D sucks, and the RB's suck..seems like a pretty decent formula for passing numbers to me. They may not be a league leader type of explosive offense, but they'll generate numbers.

I actually did think about countering for Adams, but I still see Amari as a star in the long run. He's only 24, remember.

This is true and it might all work out, but the guy has one major flaw as a wide receiver. He can't catch. And that's kind of an important trait to have. LOL.

I dont think his 14 way tie for 9th place in drops with five is much to worry about, especially when all five were the first two weeks. He can catch just fine. His tendency to not score TD's however is concerning

T.O. led the league in drops numerous times, and when didn't lead, he was always in contention for the title, and is going into the HOF

Well, his bust is apparently he won't be gracing Canton with his presence though.

Obviously dropping passes is bad but i feel like it's waaaay overrated as a negative for guys who suffer from drops. Like sure cooper will drop a couple more balls than some guys but hes also gonna get open way more than those guys.

Well, besides Cooper, I've got Beckham and Kittle in D2.

Do we have a 'drops' category be any chance?

Clarify please.
I haven't seen a drops stat in ESPN or Fantrax (if that's what you mean).
Pulled my drops data from Fox Sports of all places.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. I watched him play. He can't catch. I don't care what numbers you look at. All that tells you is how many on target drops he had. One of the reasons Carr was so terrible is that he got no help whatsoever from Cooper's side of the field.

Aw, we all have our faults.

Don't feel bad.
Marquise Lee led everyone with 8 drops. That's who I own in D2.
Of all positions with relevant fantasy value, Lee's drop rate was tied for 10th-worst.
Any guesses as to who the 9 worst ahead of him? (Already gave you 2 of the 9 above).

Spoiler

JStew .267
Douggernaut .222
AP .211
Jordan Howard .156
Matt Breida .139
Perriman .114
ODB .098
Marshawn .097
Devonta Freeman .085

I'm slow.
Baking in the heat doesn't help either.
