He is good but almost all my top 10 I have things in their game I think are special, separation or rout running or hands or the way they use their body or their big play ability or their ability in the clutch. That is what I struggle with when it comes to Allen. What is that one hang your hat on it thing he does at an elite level? 2

Incredibly reliable, soft hands, not a real physically dominant presence but usually open and very respectable YAC option. He's a very reliable WR1 but if top 10 is elite guys then he might miss the cut. 2

He's long enough to leverage DBs and has good/great balance and enough strength to present a reliable target. 1

Is it weird to think that his elite trait is consistency? Allen just feels so reliable. That’s my Cooper issue. 1

BullBuchanan Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 Hopkins Thomas Jones Hill Beckham Adams Evans Hilton Thielen Allen ----- Green Godwin Smith-Schuster Diggs Kupp Golliday So much is speculative, but that's how I think it shakes out now assuming Green stays healthy, Schuster averages out between 18/19. I think Godwin, Schuster, and Kupp will definitely outproduce Allen, but not sure they're better just yet. Diggs definitely could too, depending on how conservative we are.
first_and_ten Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 I honestly think Beckham is overrated. Plus he's a pain in the Butt.

Yes it is weird. Not to think Allen is super consistent. He is. Just not sure I consider that q trait as such. And I like DJ Moore but Courtland Sutton > DJ Moore. Cooper is somewhere between 15 and 20. He isn't that great.

Why does it feel like I wouldn't want him on my team? He sure didn't help the Giants win.
DCOrange Posted July 10, 2020 Author Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) I was glad to see Chris Godwin getting some love, though I think I'd personally have him ranked even higher than 9th personally. 8 minutes ago, first_and_ten said: I won't argue with you, you're right. Why does it feel like I wouldn't want him on my team? He sure didn't help the Giants win. I think this points to multiple possibilities: Maybe he helped a whole lot but that team just wasn't good enough. Maybe WRs just aren't THAT big of difference makers (though they certainly are in the right hands). Maybe he somehow isn't as impactful as other elite WRs. I would tend to lean towards it being mostly #1. Beckham certainly has his issues between his health and his personality, but I think he's undeniably an elite talent when he's playing at 100%. One of the 50 league guys described him as being maybe the best all-around WR in the league in terms of being able to literally do it all. I think that's probably true though it was certainly more clear early on in his career than it was this past season. Edited July 10, 2020 by DCOrange 1

I don't like to say this, but based on what I've seen, he has some sort of a mental disorder

Ethan in Cleveland Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 My top 5 1. Jones 2. Hopkins 3. Thomas 4. Evans 5. Hill I don't think Copper is top 10 but the guys 8-14 are probably all interchangeable. You can make an argument for Diggs at 8 and OBJ not in the top 10

first_and_ten Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) I think Diggs moves up the charts depending on Josh Allen. Diggs is such a great route runner, it's impossible to stop him. Plus he can get deep.He's GOOD!!! Crazy GOOD!!!! Edited July 10, 2020 by first_and_ten
JustWinPlease Posted July 10, 2020 Posted July 10, 2020 The top-3 are Michael Thomas, Deandre Hopkins and Mike Evans. Imagine what Mike Evans could do with a good QB...he's so underrated.
