Comment to 'Need a flex in PPR'
  • I go Sutton. He gets lots of targets. JSN is a decent option, but the rams D has been better lately. Tennessee is pretty good against the run

      • Samuel!!!!

        • It's Coleman. Curtis Samuel is a journeymen who rarely stays healthy. Shakir never earned more than 6 targets in a single game last year when the opportunities were to be had. Coleman was the Bills' first draft pick and a big target for the less-than-accurate Josh Allen.

          • There is more than one approach when maximizing a QB's best abilities and weaknesses. One way, like in the days of Cam Newton, the team would surround him with bigger-bodied targets, a.k.a Kelvin Benjamin, Devin Funchess, and Greg Olsen to give him wide-ranging targets. Or with elite separators that QBs can use a "see open and throw" approach, like Newton had with Steve Smith. Either approach allows the QB to be less dependent on their anticipation skills or lack thereof. A similar approach is being put in place right now with Allen drafting Coleman as their top pick. Samuel has flat-out not been overly productive nor reliably available throughout his career. Shakir has yet to prove he can be a target earner even when he had the opportunity last season. Furthermore, those two WRs are more likey to eat into each other and be hindered by Kincaid more so than Coleman. Shakir lined up in the slot 78.1% of the time and Samuel lined up in the slot 68.9% of the time last season. Coleman figures to command the main X WR perimeter position with more solidified playing time. BTW, TRUE accuracy is not a stat you have to pay for to find.

            • Thanks for your perspective. Guess we will just have to wait and see if he favors the big bodied receiver when he hasn't before. BTW, yes i found the TRUE Accuracy stat, just took a little digging.

              • Outside of Gabe Davis, who never developed his route tree, how many big-bodied WRs have the Bills given Allen? Davis is a very different WR type than Coleman despite being bigger sized. Coleman is not simply a blocking snap eater. We shall see. Everyone falls behind Kincaid

              • It's Samuel and it's not close

                • I think it could be close, but I think Samuel is being underestimated. His best fantasy season came with Joe Brady coordinating. I know both he and Kincaid played a ton of slot last year, but both can play all over the formation, giving Brady flexibility to find matchups. I like the veteran for this year over a developing Coleman.
