Straight up - who do you want on your fantasy team down the stretch (week 15/16) playoff?

No such thing as a trade in a vacuum. That said, if we redrafted today, they would both be in the middle to end of the first round.

#1 WR in FF and most consistent as well. I'll go with who brought me.

To me it's Antonio, he is ridiculously good and ridiculously consistent.

Let me sweeten the pot. I'll give you Ellington and Martavis Bryant for Brown. No other factors involved, you take?

WTF kind of question is this? Why would anyone not choose the #1 WR in fantasy. I don't even care what the roster looks like

Not a fricking chance. Ellington and AJ Green/Julio/TY Hilton/Emmanuel Sanders/ or Cobb....I'd think about it

This is absurd. RB is so terrible this year, and WR is deep. And I say this as someone who owns both Ellington and Brown.

I have both Ellington and Brown on my team right now. There isn't a player in the league I'd trade Brown for. It isn't even close how far ahead Brown is as the #1 WR from the #2

Less than two points per game in standard leagues.

Yep..
Brown avg. 23.8
#10 WR avg. 18.0
#20 WR avg. 14.2

Forte avg. 23.4
#10 RB 14.2
#20 RB 10.9 (Jeremy Hill!)

Brown is incredibly valuable... Especially considering his extremely high floor.. but there's still a couple 2-3 RBs I would say are more valuable just based on the drop off in production to the next best options.. but Ellington is not one of them.

I play PPR. He didn't specify, so I answered his question in a vacuum for a standard league. If he wanted a PPR answer, I assume he would ask for one.

The overwhelming norm nowadays is PPR so I answer everything as if it is PPR unless otherwise specified.

Is it really? I only play and prefer PPR, but standard settings are still the basic option for most leagues and I assume most people keep it that way. The basic settings for ESPN also use non-decimal scoring, which is absolutely crazy to me.
