Good Move, if Stafford's healthy CJ could be the best fantasy WR this year.

Fantasy football is much better if you draft guys you like more.

I have drafted CJ as the top WR because to me he is.

I'd take AJ over anybody I think.

Personally I think Kolb is extremely overrated, Stafford will have a better year of the two. Which of course, means CJ will have a tremendous year also.

I'm putting 20 bucks on him to lead the league in receiving yards. 15:1 odds is worth it
The top 3 are easily Calvin, Andre and Roddy. My argument for Calvin #1 is simply this: last season, with Hill and Stanton for most of the season, he finished only about 1 ppg lower than Roddy and Andre. Those guys aren't going to improve on their ppg from last year, but Calvin could be much, much better. With Stafford healthy, he could potentially have a historic year.
On the other hand, Roddy White has missed 0 games in 6 years, so an argument can be made there as well.
I've picked Calvin twice at the #8 spot, first WR off the board simply because, if I'm gonna take a WR in round 1, he needs to have the potential to be lights out.

Have you seen Kevin Kolb passing to Fitz so far? Fitz has had to make some crazy catches just to make it functional. Compare that to the Stafford-CJ connection we've seen...its night and day. Kolb = bust.
In a 10 team league, I'm fine with a WR in rd 1 if its a late pick since the RB you take at picks 8-10 should be similar to the one coming back in rd 2.
Also, I'm not touching Jennings. I don't think its a coincidence that his numbers, atrocious at the start of last season, suddenly skyrocketed once Finley got hurt. Too many weapons, and I think Finley is the #1 option for Rodgers. I'd take Nicks, Jackson, and even Wallace over Jennings.

Couldn't be worst than last year, for Fitz. And I would never go WR in the first round.

Anyone drafting in the next couple of weeks going to take a flyer on Chris Johnson in the first? I think he might be out for awhile. Nothing forcing him to come back, already lost a year towards FA and now with the Fitz contract seems like he wants something similar.

Fitz
90 rec
1137 yards
6 TDs
and with who throwing the ball to him?
CJ
77 rec
1120 yards
12 TDs
(1 less game played)
with a weak armed Shaun Hill throwing to him most of the year
Fitz has the better track record, CJ has the higher potential if Stafford plays IMO.
It will probably come down to the same old question, can Stafford stay healthy?
You probably won't go wrong with either though.

I'd take Roddy White over Fitz and Jennings in a heartbeat, bro. Nothing wrong with the two you have ranked higher but White trumps them IMO...
Then again, it's like flipping a coin between the group of them. Here's my Top 5...in order.
1. Andre Johnson
2. Roddy White
3. Calvin Johnson
4. Greg Jennings
5. Larry Fitzgerald
