The Minn QBs (Cassell, Ponder and Freeman) last year combined for 4,216 yards and 20 TDs last year passing. All 3 played for the Vikings last year right?

It was a joke, howdy...a joke. But seriously, if you think he'll have 80-90 catches, I'd like to place a very large wager with you. He's not Welker. Getting open is not his strong suit by any means. I can realistically see 60-65 catches for 6-8 TDs and 950-1100 yds.
donvaughn said:I got him at 4.05 in the DC dynasty superflex a month ago. He was the WR15(counting 1.1). The two WR's taken before were Cruz and Harvin and the two wr's after were Garcon and Hilton. I thought that was just about right for him and a fair price for his youth and upside. This was a superflex draft though so 4.05 isn't quite accurate.
All we can do is project a line with Cassel as the qb as of now. Even if they draft a guy like David Carr I gotta think he's sitting for a year or at least part of the season. If Cassel can throw for 4000yds under Norv Turner, I'm thinking Rudolph and AP could have career highs in rec yds, and Jennings totals could be close to 1000, but I won't project that. A dispersion like this is possible:
Jennings-850
Rudolph-650
AP-350
Wright-400
Simpson-400
Other-400
That would leave 950yds for CP. 1-2 return tds if your league counts those. Rushing yds should push him close to 1100 total. I'll say 65/1100/10. Keep in mind he is still raw at route running. He could evolve into a big PPR guy, but not next season imo.

13 qbs 1 rookie. Maybe pushed down about a round. Figure mid 3rd here

emurrell17 said:I absolutely think he is break out capable! Like I said, I absolutely love CP! I'm a Tennessee homer, and I thought he was the best wr in the class..I was worried that I was being biased though and took Hopkins over him in a few leagues lol. Lesson for me:
Trust your gut. It's better to go with your gut and miss then it is to go with someone else's and miss out!
I also am probably not going to listen (maybe with one ear) when I hear a crazy athlete just needs 'fine tuning' or is 'raw' as long as someone is teachable and has a good attitude (which I believe CP is both of those), it's the better athlete that wins out eventually. This year I think that guy is Kelvin Benjamin.
But the problem with CP is that these projections are so high, there is a lot of room to disappoint..not much room to impress. The point of fantasy football is buying players low, like stocks, in hopes that their value will rise higher than what you paid for it. I don't think CP has much of a chance to outperform his adp this year...that's why he is one of my biggest bust candidates going into next year
If he meets the expectations that people have for them, then it will be a fantastic season for him. The problem is that it's expected...I think I already said this earlier, but if you buy CP, you are paying for Cobb or Allen numbers(and I honestly think it's going to get into the dez/DT area soon). If you get anything less then that, then you lose
JRMRRT said:Couldnt we say the same thing about Cobb and Allen to though. I mean Cobb hasnt had a 1000 yard season yet and Allen could be a one hit wonder. Weve seen other rookies have a great season and then disappear before. Id almost take CP over Allen just on athletic prowess alone and hope the upside of him being the #1 WR now with Norv hits. I think CP has greater upside than Allen personally. I think Allens ceiling will likely hover right around what he did last year. V Jax never went crazy in SD either.

Dont get too happy cause Patterson's floor is probably complete bust too so theres definitely risk.
bmxholden1 said:Allen isn't going anywhere - while CP has a lot to learn about route-running, Allen is already a top 10, maybe better, route runner. Not to mention his short area quickness is amazing - he shakes every corner, he can catch, he is dynamic, and very good after the catch. Allen has football skills, CP has physical gifts, both will get it done, but Allen is going to be GREAT if he stays healthy.
