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.

    • Like that matters. That's the first thing. I suggested that it's probably better to let a QB sit and learn, and that's what I meant. Secondly, in what planet am I making excuses, my friend, or engaging in any mental gymnastics in Bryce Young's defense? As I have said, I don't care if he turns into Mighty Mouse, it's time for him to go. In my opinion, he's too short to be a successful QB in the NFL. I have seen enough. I'd rather trade him and take my chances with Hooker, at least he's more of a prototypical size and can actually see where and why he's throwing the ball.
    • There is a scenario where our team comes out prepared to play football instead of shitting the bed for the first quarter. Every bad Bryce game seems to start with him looking incompetent - the OL looking incompetent - and the defense looking incompetent.  Boom, down 14 before we know what hit us. Imagine a world where we come prepared and play with a lead, and Bryce gets to fulfill his ceiling by managing a game instead of playing catch up. He's bad, but upon reflection he is not Clausen bad.  He can move the team down the field when he gets 4 - 5 seconds in a clean pocket against a soft zone.  I don't think Clausen could do that.
    • You are literally naming almost entirely instances where they are sitting behind a well established if not star player that was already on the team. That's a different scenario entirely.  Listen, if you want to make all the mental gymnastics for excuses, have at it. I think the facts are clear, Bryce Young is not an NFL caliber player. Furthermore, no amount of pine time nor change of scenery is likely to change that.
