JCDaly 307 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Thought about benching him, but saw even against better D's like BAL and IND he had 4 for 62 and 6 for 125 respectively, and CIN would likely be behind all game, which they were, I figured he could at least match the 4 for 62 output, and I'd have been fine with that, but he def surpassed my expectations! ROS looks decent too, WSH/NYG(would Bradberry be on him all game?)/MIA/DAL/PIT/HOU(and BAL week 17 if you go that far) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hoppychokes 862 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 I hope the Bengals sell their draft capital to buy Burrow and Higgins a line, will be a great duo for awhile if they’re kept healthy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fbi314159 157 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 I was sure Woods was the better play seeing as how they were playing Seattle. Higgins proved me wrong. The kids gets quality targets with lots of air that he pulls down. He was my best receiver this week and he was sitting on my bench. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tschwicht 119 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 (edited) I haven't benched him for weeks (other than the bye)! He's going to end this season as a WR1 in PPR. I actually gave up Woods instead of him in a trade a few weeks ago because of his volume and how he's been trending and don't regret it. I think 5/60 is his floor and it is trending upward. I'll take that every week in PPR, especially off the wire, but he has major upside each week and it looks like Burrow is looking for him more and more.

rv23 2 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Match up proof at this pt? WST has a great pass D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tomei7 591 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Never benching this guy ever again, set and forget ROS for sure, not bad for a free pickup. Yahoo tho needs to up his projections. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fbi314159 157 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I do believe that I am starting him over Woods. As long as he gets the targets he should have a solid floor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fbi314159 157 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I like him better than Boyd. I am like him better than Woods (not enough targets) and Kupp (doesn't do anything with his targets). I guess I like him in the WR15 to WR20 range. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
3FLi 106 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Feels like everyone has zero concerns for Higgins against a tough WFT pass defense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strikeforce316 117 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Staple going forward Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fbi314159 157 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I have concerns, yes. But I actually have more concerns with AJ Brown. Higgins gets targets--as long as he gets targets he will have a rather safe floor. AJ Brown is amazing, but unlike Higgins the volume isn't always there. Higgins has been getting 7-9 targets since week 2 except for 6 in week 2 and 5 in week 7. He pulls in a little over 60% of those targets. Since week 4 he has been averaging 16.5 yards per reception. His ceiling isn't that high (he has yet to break 16 pts in non-ppr), but has a rock solid floor as he has been very consistent Scoring in double digits 4 out of the last 8 weeks and his worst game was 6.2 points. Indianapolis has a decent defense (7th against passing) and he had a 6/125 line for 12.7 points. To be fair, his worst game since week 3 was against the 4th ranked defense against passing--Baltimore where he score the aforementioned 6.2 points. I think that this is pretty much his floor. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brosephd 1,307 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 definitely better hands than the guy i dropped him for (claypool). future is bright. teeing off! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tghetty 355 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Very cool to see the college rivals team up and get it going year 1. Always loved Higgins in Clemson, now what the future holds for future tigers.... Higgins, Lawrence and Etienne will all be studs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fort4242 740 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 On paper Washington might look tough but they haven't played anyone. The only WRs they've played that are worth anything: Hopkins - 8-68-1 Robert Woods - 4-71-1 Cooper Kupp - 5-66 Marvin Jones - 8-96-1 They've had games against Philly, Dallas, Giants (X2), Cowboys (w/out Dak), Baltimore that have inflated their WR defense. I would put the Bengals offense over all of these from a passing stand point. Washington still has to play Cincy, Pitt, Carolina and Seattle this year. I'll be impressed if they're still considered a difficult matchup for WRs by year-end. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
