ok maybe i’m crazy but are wrs getting too much hype in dynasty? i know rbs have a shorter shelf life but i would much rather have a stud are rb than a stud at wr because they can be a dime a dozen after the top three or so wrs

Proper amount of hype. Wrs last longer than RBs plain and simple

WRs are the single most important position imo in a standard no tep no SF style league. They play longer and usually have less injury occurrence.

I agree that they’re overrated now (where RBs used to be overrated). I’d highly suggest people look back at trends over years in ppg by position. Tier gaps is where you win. Top heavy positions are where you make the most fantasy gold (because it directly correlates to advantage over your opposition). Until last year, I was a firm believer that TE was the most important position because there were only 1-3 guys that were massive difference makers. Now there’s too many, which waters down the return. Along that line of thinking

rb position is so gross rn u got ken walker as a top 10 dynast rb lol on the flip side wr has never seen more talent and this draft isn’t really helping the cause however eventually it will start to naturally correct itself

the RB position is too random

bijan may be the rb1 right now but that can easily change in 2-3 years

usually with wrs theres more consistent rankings

jj will probably be the wr1 for the next couple of years

seems to be the trend as of late. I still value RBs higher in a short term win now window

Depends on the scheme and fit of player. Could go either way based off your team needs.

Depends on the scoring format of the league... also wrs can make a shit ton of points in 1 play whereas rbs typically need volume

Yes, they are overrated, but the general sentiment about them is rooted in some degree of truth. Any position’s value stems directly from league format. Right now, there are A LOT of leagues where people are required to start 3, 4, even 5 WRs while only requiring 1 RB start…

Also what @A440 said….

It’s a little counterintuitive, but the 10 team leagues tend to see RBs valued a lot higher— there’s such a glut of good WR options, and only 4-5 great RBs. So at RB, you’re either a HAVE or a HAVE NOT, and nobody wants to be in the latter category

Besides the top tier elite RBs, I’m finding it’s easier to replace RB production during the season. Paid 2nds to get Mostert and Kamara (just sold Kamara for a 2nd). I’d rather build my team around stud WRs/TEs (I’m in TEP) and then fill in holes at RB.

in ppr WRs rule... however if you are in a super traditional league that starts 2 WRs 1 Flex you are correct

@Noga2003 it’s just this year the draft class is considered strong for wr and weak for rb it changes year to year

most leagues (i assume) are start 3wrs 2 flex

so wrs rule there

I agree .Cause wrs last longer there's less need to have depth there

U can have a Keenan Allen who will out produce ppg most of these young wrs
