Hopkins. Also, why is Stevie on the waiver wire to begin with?

Some people overreact and drop good players. I picked up James Jones off the FA wire early Sunday morning. Absolutely surprised he was there.

I wanted to drop him after week 1 just because he pissed me off, but I knew better.

That's the order I would pursue them.

Not sold on Royal yet. Johnson is solid, and Hopkins is looking great.

guy dropped him after week one. I am looking for consistancy because whoever i pick up will be plugged until Amendola is healthy (and may just stay there permantently).

Looking at who is throwing each the ball I am leaning towards Hopkins...but he is concussed.

Honestly, I think Hopkins may be your best bet for consistency. I'm predicting a drop in production for Royal and Hopkins has a better QB throwing to him than Johnson. Johnson will be up and down.

Hopkins #1 on this list (but I think this is taking into account that most leagues don't have Johnson available)

Here's a nice quote for you from an "expert" in the link above:

quote:

I’d snatch DeAndre Hopkins off waivers over Eddie Royal based on assumed consistency going forward.
