Ill make my argument though just bc we have time to do that.

AJ and Roddy are the same age so thats moot. AJ is the only option in Houston. Roddy's catches have declined by 10 catches per year since Julio has been there. I think he will level off around 90. Their RZ target % is the same so TDs is a toss up. AJ caught 115 passes last year and gained 250 more yards.

Falcons added a pass catching back

I don't think the argument is AJ over Roddy, more of the statement that Roddy is the 11th best ppr WR.

They drafted Nuk Hopkins to be their no. 2. He's gonna get a lot of balls thrown his way.

Oh well CJ, AJ Green, Marshall, Dez, Julio, Demaryius, and Percy all got picked before him in this draft then I also like AJ, Cruz, and Amendola better. That puts him at 11 for me

He's going to catch 100 balls if he stays healthy. I mean its debatable. Depending on the team I'm drafting I may take Roddy over Amendola. I just think Brady has to throw to someone.

Name another receiver they have right now. Gronk will be out the first 6-8 weeks

Wes Welker

Welker. Peyton loves white slot guys dating back to Austin Collie, who would've put up crazy seasons had he not had a mush brain.

A top 10 ppr back last year who was drafted later than usual then as well. I fully expect Hunter and James to eat more into his carries this year, but he's still the workhorse. Happy to get him after so many RB have gone off the board and having my QB and WR1 locked up.

Not so happy to take this guy.

But I'm going to take my first risk of my draft. There's a new run offense being implemented in Oakland and they have high hopes for McFadden in it. If he's healthy he's catching passes.

I was hoping Murray would fall down here and a RB I would have considered is Le'veon Bell. He's making me rethink my early prediction of Ball being the top rookie RB.

QB Brees
RB Gore
RB Mcfadden
WR Marshall

RB WR TE

Interesting that Gore has fallen this far. Good OL, plenty of touches, coming off 1200 yards. Downside is age and reception #'s. Where's everyone think he should fall?

ETA - Swamie answered that

With a little luck your team will be freakish.
