Thanks for writing this article in a very timely manner fir me. I am also a big fan of Jakobi Meyer and have him in over half my leagues but was starting to think I was maybe wrong on my value of him due to all the Information that I was reading discounting him and putting the new additions above Meyers to the point I was ready to drop him especially seeing him drooped in one of my leagues. Thanks for saving me from a huge mistake and instead of dropping him I move puck him up.
Thanks Cooper! Great analysis. I have been hearing some sentiment about Kendrick Bourne possibly being the WR1 there too for many of the same broader reasons you mention about Myers. I agree with your take and was wondering if you think it’s worth targeting both players and wait and see who is the best? Both are similar value if I recall.
I believe in his talents and you lay out a great case to buy him at current value (I just went out and scooped him for Tre’Quan Smith and a 4th)
Something you didn’t mention when considering the new pass catchers in NE is the contract situation moving forward. As an expiring UDFA how good a season do you think he’d need to have to retain value as a free agent?
I’m afraid he’ll get caught in the middle where he’s too good for NE to re-sign cheap, considering all the big money they just shelled out, but not good enough where he get’s a legit shot as a top-3 option for another team.
