We can do a qb, te, and rb thread later...but let's start where it'll be the most fun. Rank your top 5 rookie wrs for THIS YEAR ONLY!!! And give your projections along with any kind of bold prediction you want
Bold Predictions:
Cordarelle Patterson replaces Josh Gordon in the top 5 WR group.
(Julio, Calvin, AJG, CP, and Dez)
Andre Williams proves himself to be the best RB in this class, by having the most productive rookie season of all the rbs.

1. Brandin Cooks
78/1,080/8
He was my #2 receiver before the draft...now when you look at who the saints lost, and how pro ready I believe he is, it's easy for me to rank him this high. I'm willing to bet he returns kick or punts too, so that's an added bonus for kr leagues.
2. Kelvin Benjamin
55/850/8
He was my #3 wr before the draft and he went to not only what I believe was the best spot for a rookie wr, but my favorite team too. Cam has a canon. The panthers can't run the ball all the time, and I personally disagree with all of the hate for this guy right now...I've watched hours of film and I just don't think the hate is warranted...but whatever, it's America so say whatever you want....it makes it easier for me to get him too.
3. Mike Evans
45/700/8
It's the touchdowns that put him above Watkins this year. I also don't buy into the hype about Watkins being the next Julio so that's part of it.
4. Sammy Watkins
65/800/5
He's good...he's just not AJG. And EJ Manuel blows...I don't think Watkins is better than cooks athletically and the biggest knock on cooks is size....but Watkins only stands about 3 inches taller....so if you are trying to convince me that Watkins is going to win on deep balls like Julio or ajg do...good luck. I think Watkins is much more like a Harvin type player, but I think cooks is a better Harvin.
5. Marquise Lee
50/600/4
Jacksonville...bleck...henne...bleck...bortles...bleck....someone has to get yards though
Honorable mention
Davante Adams (td beast)
Jarvis Landry (ppr beast)
Bold Predictions:

Please be respectful of everyone's opinions guys...they are projections...some of them idealistic at that, and it's not like any of us actually know anyway!
