Think you're going to fall on deaf ears. Max is being "atted" repeatedly over in the political subforum. He's going to see this and ignore it, most likely. Just a hunch.The Frankman said:

Giving a local's perspective - I've listened to DMV Sports Talk Radio for, literally, 4 decades+. JP Finlay is one of the most reliable of the WFTskins beat reporters in recent history. He has a mid-afternoon show on 106.7 the Fan, which unfortunately, IMHO, he shares top billing with Brian Mitchell, who, while I have the utmost respect for as an NFL Player and WFTskins alum, is borderline un-listenable...
...in any case, this shouldn't come as much of a surprise, as Humphries is far-and-away the most talented slot WR on the Team, his competition is negligible, and he was brought in specifically to upgrade that position. Dyami Brown plays on the outside, and was drafted to play outside across from McLaurin. He's looking like everything they hoped he would be, thus far. Samuel will play all over the formation. Logan Thomas will get his....
...as I've said in other Threads, and I'm dying on this hill until Training Camp/Pre Season proves me wrong, but Owners investing heavily in McLaurin and Gibson might be wise to insure those investments with contingency plans, most notably if either an in-house RB or one brought in post-cuts, supplants Peyton Barber as the RB3, and brings more to the table in that role. He will get snaps and touches. In the passing game, there's only one football and both the #'s and the talent have significantly increased post-2020. Gibson/McKissic/Thomas/McLaurin, Samuel, Humphries, Brown and a handful of bit/role-players are all going to get enough action that it's going to slightly lower the projected ceilings of Gibson/McLaurin. Those guys are being drafted right now as RB12 and WR11. I know this Team as well as anyone, and I just don't see it (yet), with the info being disseminated thus far. If the 2021 WFTskins offense is functioning correctly, as it looked in OTA's, it's going to be a 'whole is greater than the sum of it's parts' situation. A Team effort that spreads the ball around more than many in the FF community would think, or like. IMHO (IMHO, IMHO) a proper ceiling for both of them is RB/WR18, with a range somewhere in the high teens/low twenties. Solid RB2/WR2, but little to no upside at current ADP.
IMHO!

Curtis Samuel spent 60% of his 2020 snaps in the slot. Logan Thomas had more slots snaps than any other TE - 47 more than the 2nd TE, >100 more than the 10th. The latter is not relevant to this year but the former might be - pay attention to Camp notes.
Humphries hasn’t had a good game in three years (injuries.)

I had him in a lot of leagues and was wrong.
He took a wicked blow to the head in TEN and he doesn't have the same fire as he did in Tampa. I hoped a fresh start was all he needed but he's not that guy anymore.
I wonder about Tyrell Williams now.
Ill keep an eye on Humphries as he does have the ability to be a very effective NFL WR but I can't ride this train in FF until he can overcome. God Bless, I do feel for the guy.
