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.

    • What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.
    • With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking. 
    • We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
