Dynasty Leagues

Revised dynasty rankings

Evans, Beckham look like top wide receivers

With dynasty leagues, you’re looking not only at what players will do this month and for the rest of this season, but what they’ll be doing in future years. With wide receivers, you must also give some thought to the other players (particularly quarterbacks) around them, and whether their team might be changing coaches and offenses.

Lots to consider, but to me, Mike Evans and Odell Beckham look like the top options. They’re both really good, and they’re both also only 24. Antonio Brown might be a little better than those guys now but he’s also 5 years older.

Age is important on this kind of list, I think. So I’ve got only two older receivers in my top 10 – Brown and A.J. Green (who’s also 29). DeAndre Hopkins is 25, and the other seven in my top 10 are all either 23- or 24-year-olds.

Jordy Nelson is great, but he’s 32 – he’s a lot closer to the end of his career.

The following rankings are based on standard scoring (6 points for touchdowns, 1 for every 10 yards). They’re not generated numerically. They’re just done by gut fell. I got the list out of all the wide receivers, put them in order, and then spent about 90 minutes going through it over and over, shifting guys up and down until it felt right.

As usual with this kind of thing, let me know where you think I’m going wrong. We can debate the guys in the comments, if you wish, and I’ll explain my reasoning.
