Ladd had a higher YPRR than Renfrow, Edelman, Kupp, and Amendola. Also faster than all of them. You guys highly underrated him

Mentioning all those guys was a joke that was explained shortly afterward

Took Ladd over Worthy and Btj in dynasty … already have Kirk as my wr 4 / 5 …. Then took Pearsall over Coleman. To sit. Have Nico. Dj Moore. Tank and Zay flowers as other wr

McConkey does not suck against press coverage. He's super quick, almost unguardable. I just have injury concerns with him but he is special in quickness and routes. A Mitchell and Burton both left the Georgia program because they couldn't get targets over Bowers and McConkey. Im worried about McConkey injury history. Love him as a player.

We like Ladd as well, but he has struggled with physicality and press in his career compared when he gets off coverage. It’s why he’s likely to be a slot flanker at the NFL level. Overall he’s a good prospect, just not a complete player (which few players are coming into the league). There is upside for him with LA as he can lead that team in targets in year 1.

Really like the Baldwin/Dionte comp. Think it’s pretty spot on.

Thanks. Ladd is just a dang good route runner. Excited to see him in the league.

I’m drafting Brian Thomas Jr over Worthy

Good luck!

I like it. Worthy is what 3rd to 4th for targets? BT may be 1. BT is so underrated. Could be a top 10 receiver in 2 yeas. BT is superquick and twitchy for his size. I also love Mcconkey but i think in 5 years BT will be better.

Needed a backup QB in a deep bench, 12T, 1QB league, as both of my QB have BYE in week 11. My first pick was at 14, I'd traded a bunch and moved picks around. Was going to take JJ or D Maye but somehow, Ladd McConkey was sitting there at 14, so I grabbed him and traded back in and took D Maye at 18. Felt like a pro-GM running a FF team, lol.

BTJ for sure but I'm excited about Ladd

From how we are looking at these two players, there is no wrong answer. Just comes down to what you prefer in a player.

I think if BTJ is coachable his ceiling is so much higher I’m taking him in dynasty. Everyone knocks him for being only a field stretcher but I don’t think that means he can’t do the rest. He blew by every SEC corner he went up against. I feel like people could say the same stuff about Randy Moss coming out, all he does is run go routes. It’s not dumb if it works every time.

@FantasyFootballUniverse 2 ай бұрын

Agreed. My reasoning was that BTJ has a much higher ceiling.
