i plan on taking him as my Flex in both my leagues. 

That’s a great plan, not only is it a good pick but it’s fun to have a Panthers guy on the fantasy roster. Outside of Diontae and Brooks when he gets back, there’s not really anyone fantasy relevant.

I think he’ll definitely have a big year. He is clearly the #1 receiving option in this offense, and there has been heavy emphasis on developing the connection between he and Bryce Young. If Thielen can be a 1000+ receiver in last year’s abysmal offense,  Johnson should break 1500.

Fantasy-wise I think he’s a t6 option in Ppr.

That’s a very reasonable strategy for an enjoyable season haha. But thanks man, just tryna give another perspective that the media doesn’t offer. Best place to find value in fantasy is where the majority of people ignore offenses for whatever reason or biases present.

Could not agree more brother! If Bryce and Diontae get a real connection it’s gonna be fun to watch, also just gonna be nice to have a real separator at WR. Thielan is a good route runner, he just has lost a step and offers nothing RAC wise.

Chuba should be. Only problem is not knowing how the position will be handled second half of the season once Brooks is up to speed.

I always make sure not to draft anybody from our division because I don’t want to root for any of their players to do well ever.

Yeah honestly everything surrounding Brooks has been really quiet. For a while they made it out that he would be ready week 1, then quietly it came out he would likely start in the PUP to start the year. I really am curious how they handle him when he’s healthly, especially if Chuba is having a solid year.

Could break out?

 

Nah he's going to breakout. He will be a top 10 WR this season. The moment the trade happened and I looked at his film this kid has the skills to be a #1 WR. His ability to get open off the line of scrimmage is top 5 elite. You can't teach that this kid will be a household name by the end of the season.

    • If he can make the switch, I always thought that was more of a prototypical RT than LT. Could be an OG too.  Honestly, they can't keep paying offensive linemen like they have and probably should be drafting replacements for everyone this year and next. If they were an overpowering group, then maybe. But too much capital for just slightly above average group - some times. 
    • That's usually the narrative when there aren't highly touted QBs or DEs. Off ball LB is the position this year. And there are some really good prospects. WRs are deep too. No generational level guys but very deep with solid options.  I would target CJ Allen in the 1st. I want a real ILB. Not a pass rusher that can move back. Not a safety that can move up. He's smart, tough, instinctive and durable. Dude had surgery on his meniscus and missed one game. One game. And... he's only played LB. Watching him control guards with his hands andsift through the garbage to get to the ball is refreshing. That's my guy in the 1st. 
    • It’s always a weak draft, next year is always better according to the draftniks. This is a weak draft for QB, WR, and TE. Theres only a few true LT. RB and DB are average. It’s a good class for the rest of the Oline, Dline, Edge, and LB.
