We’re at the time of year when those in dynasty leagues might want to add prospects to their rosters – guys who won’t necessarily even play this year but might be good in 2018 or beyond. With that in mind, I try to hit an updated player list at a position every weekend. Today: wide receivers.
A number of players on this list won’t play at all in 2017. There are eight, I think, who are out with season-ending injuries. And there a bunch of others who clearly aren’t going to do much (John Ross, ArDarius Stewart, Mack Hollins and others).
But rankings here are long term. I’m assuming standard scoring (6 points for touchdowns, and 1 for every 10 yards).
Tough decision at the top. Antonio Brown is all-world – a lot better than everyone else. But he’s also 29 years old. That’s hardly at the end of the road, but I think the correct move is to slot behind behind three other really good receivers who are all 4-5 years younger.
