.5 PPR
Who is in the better position to succeed this year and who would want on your team? I have Hopkins and would be getting Thomas. From most info thus far it looks pretty even... But just wondering the boards thoughts! Thanks!

Hopkins has 13 more targets through 2 games. More opportunity to score points for you

Thomas is arguably a better receiver with a better QB on a better offense. At some point the quality of targets have to be taken into effect

I'm guessing you're referencing a straight-up trade?

you're confused here jangy

Thomas has 3 100 yard games in his last 30 games, 10 TDs. That's a 150/1890/10 line in his last 30 games for a guy who once posted a 111/1619/11 in one season. He will be 30 soon. Ain't the guy nor the offense you're thinking of bubba

Yes if you're say a Mike thomas or jordy Nelson. High power offenses w ultra efficient super QBs

If you're looking for a guy to post a weekly 6/70 you may as well take Hopkins, the volume of targets will likely get you there and you just hope he makes a play to get you a hundo and a score (like Thomas used to do!). Will Fuller coming back will alleviate some pressure off Hopkins as well. Watson will get better
