Neauxls 57 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, theSPANKER said: With trades going down today and more likely to happen, does anyone know if the Texans are shopping for another WR? I like Stills outlook going forward but I'm out if they bring in someone else. Think it's a good question to ask, with some of us looking to pick him up. We want to be careful to avoid losing FAAB or waste a waiver claim. Any rumors or chatter? Or nothing to worry about here? One could say they already made that move and it was for Kenny. 10 minutes ago, BGDDYKWL said: I know Fuller is very injury prone but the reason Stills isn't worth the #1 waiver is Fuller will be back, likely just before fantasy playoffs. So you're burning your #1 for a low-end WR2 for potentially only three games (bye week 10). I've got AJG, so Kenny is someone I'll be able to rely on to be my WR2 while that gets sorted out. If AJG doesn't play then I'll have to make trades when/if fuller returns. I know this situation is unique to me, but I'm sure anyone that reads this waiting on AJG like me is weak at wr2 also. I'm convincing myself this is the time to burn my #1 😂 Edited October 22, 2019 by Neauxls Quote Link to post Share on other sites

While there's a chance what you've said is true, as another poster stated the likelihood of him re-aggravating his injury is pretty high. Like I stated in a previous thread, there is just as much risk in letting a full time WR playing with an elite QB/WR drawing #1 corners go to another team. There is a chance he blows up and Fuller never fully recovers, odds against him IMHO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outside of very deep leagues my guess is there's someone like Corey Davis/AJ, Metcalf, Sanu, Westbrook, Williams/Parker in MIA, Pascal, etc. Very possible some of those guys put up similar production ROS and you could get them for free.

yanksman 3,781 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Seems like a must start to me this week vs horrible Oakland secondary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mustangt125 104 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Probably starting him over BCooks this week. Can't decide yet. Based on Cooks so far I feel confident doing it but they play Cinci so he'll prob burn them. Then again they may just run it cuz Cinci is so bad. Stills going to have a big game tho, I feel it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daveLux 11 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Firing him up over McLaurin this week ! All aboard !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dropshadows 269 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Hopefully this pick up was a better choice than Coutee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kenny Stills is actually the perfect replacement for Fuller's WR style. Surprised the 7 people ahead of me didn't grab him before me. Im just a casual observer, but to me I don’t see how KC’s role / opportunity changes significantly. Stills has been injured and is coming back and now Fuller is out. I see him sliding into Fullers role without a huge difference and things being business as usual for everyone else. I could definitely be wrong, but that’s how I’m approaching it. Edit: the only question for me is how long will Stills be able to keep the Fuller role before Fuller comes back (if he does).

I can’t say I have followed Stills career closely, but they seem pretty comparable to me and I don’t think Stills is known for dropping 3td’s in a game/stone hands. So the optimist in me says he could be much more consistent than Fuller, whole also having blow up game potential. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stills should be having a 1 on 1 field day this weekend while Hopkins is going to be terrorizing the Raiders and being double-teamed. This sort of reminds of the Cooper/Gallup duo from Dallas. So hard to cover both because they both can make plays. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kilo 138 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Is there a timetable on Fuller's return? And just wondering what production can we expect when he returns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Houston would probably be happy to have him back for their playoff push. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fullonchubb 103 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Will Fuller wasn't even really a WR2. He was more like a WR3 with WR2 upside. Do we really think he's going to come in and be as good or better than Fuller? I'm not convinced. Saying this as someone who just picked him up off the waiver wire. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be surprised if Houston was winning games and Stills was on fire, that they would limit Stills to feature Fuller.. especially if they were still in the playoff picture.

Pooskay 807 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Stills can surely be as good as Fuller when it comes to FF numbers. Fuller is more talented though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fullonchubb 103 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 What other WR2's is he worth playing over though? Allen Robinson? John Brown? JuJu? Stefon Diggs? I'd have a hard time plugging him in over any of those guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
