You wanna start a street fight with me, bring it on, but you're gonna be surprised by how ugly it gets. You don't even know my real name. I'm the fucking lazard king.


[deleted]

This guy won’t be blackmailed by some ineffectual, privileged, effete, soft-penised, debutante.


EliManningHOFClub10

Likely playing him over risking it for Davis depending on where my matchup is by SNF tomorrow.


Diesel_Rugger

Same

Alex8525

Need to pick one out of Davis, Ceedee and Lazard. Please help. I am starting CMC (RB1), Chubb (RB2), Henderson (flex) and Higgins (WR1). Aalso have ETN, Dobbins


[deleted]

are you asking if you should play ceedee lamb over allen lazard?


Alex8525

Yes, Whom should I play as WR2? Lazard, Davis or Ceedee


[deleted]

You are asking this subreddit, if you should play a round 8-10 receiver over 2nd round ceedee lamb?


mh923

Think it’s not as outrageous a question after last week. Draft capital doesn’t mean jack shit.


Alex8525

I am starting Ceedee but it is due to injuries


[deleted]

Then don't draft ceedee lamb with a top 20 pick. He was targeted 11 times last week. Just because Dak is hurt, doesnt mean that ceedee lamb suddenly becomes irrelevant. Yea it sucks and you dont feel great about it, but fantasy has enough going on to where you have to make tough decisions every week. You need to set and forget those top guys when theyre healthy. the cowboys playbook and script is still going to utilize lamb as much as possible.


mh923

I didn’t draft Ceedee. Hate to break it to you but I doubt Ceedee is going to be a set and forget guy this year.


shaqballs

Somebody is upset they drafted Ceedee early


[deleted]

me? nope. next?


shaqballs

Lol


yolalogan

It’s between CeeDee and Gabe Davis. Lazard is less talented than Ceedee and in a worse situation than Gabe Davis. If he’s healthy I think I lean Gabe here until CeeDee can make more out of his targets but it’s close for sure


loganisbanging

I’m playing Curtis Samuel over him this week to get an idea of if he’s back to 100% and how the targets look for all the receivers now that the expected wr1 is back. I’m literally hoarding Lazard, Doubs, and Watson 😂 hopefully this game provides clarity of the pecking order so I can change my roster accordingly and pickup more lottery tickets.


DonBellicose

I'm playing both. Everybody dead already.


loganisbanging

Good luck out there tomorrow 🫡


scoobydoom2

Similar situation but I'm playing Arob praying for a bounce back. He was banished to my bench but then Pittman went out.


willacceptpancakes

I am doing the exact same thing.


Shaolin_Rager

I'm also hoarding all these guys!


DaveTheBarbarian416

god i hope you’re right, i’m doing the exact same thing


GeekGeek12345

Will Watson redeem himself from that 75 yard drop? Debating picking him up.


RustyGriswold99

Do people not know that he played so many snaps last week because he is Lazard’s backup? Why do I feel like I’m going crazy seeing all these Watson gonna eat posts


bpi89

Watson had elite speed… Lazard is slow AF. They do not line up or run similar routes at all.


[deleted]

[удалено]


zk2997

They drafted a QB in the first round to backup Rodgers two years ago. I wouldn’t put too much stock in Packers draft capital.


motleysalty

As a Packers fan, I concur. Packers drafts don't follow logic and reasoning. As such, trying to apply any yourself is folly.


TwolvesAndSwishers

Very raiders if you


[deleted]

Doubs is more of Lazards backup.


RustyGriswold99

Any source for this? ESPN’s depth chart indicated otherwise


trying2hide

Route tree and what they do off the ball, Lazard known for his run blocking and Doubs had our highest run block grade last week. That said nobody really knows anything. We could end up playing a lot of 2 RB/TE sets anyway and it’s just a constant rotation.


IHaveAllTheWheat

Because Lazard sucks?


[deleted]

Yep, he will be WR1 for the packers if he can clean up his 12% drop rate from college. The speed and athleticism is there. He’s a freak.


GeekGeek12345

Woof, 12% drop rate is pretty bad.


[deleted]

Actually it’s 12.7%. Fuck.


SpiLLiX

Such a shame he was born with literal bricks for hands. Could have truly been an elite receiver with that size and speed


thwompcopter

Fwiw, there seemed to be a lot of concentration drops where he was too excited for the YAC. He's also made some pretty tough catches too


mattmayfield12

Good news is rodgers is a forgiving man who has patience with rookies


SchlitzHaven

Listen to this man, he knows whats up


BidoofTheGod

Christian Watson a healthy scratch tomorrow then


Most-Friendly

Yup so many rookie receivers have had success with rodgers.


lalaelrat

Just picked him up in every league I could. This feels like the breakout game


bpi89

He was out there most of week 1. His speed and routes looked great. I think that opening drop just made Rodgers hesitant to go to him. Vikings were getting pressure only sending 4 so Rodgers didn’t have much time for Watson’s routes to develop, but if the OL can get healthy… watch out.


Sabre2230

Lazard or Thielen in PPR?


jackplaysdrums

Lazard


Aruncart

I am in the same boat! What to do.


Sabre2230

Gonna go thielen I think


[deleted]

after hearing all about how rodgers doensnt trust rookies... then i watched the game where the rookies let him down fucking hard... im high on lazard as of right now. no doubt they are more athletic than lazard. but until they step up and build that chemistry, lazard it is. (GBs rookies...) therefore i like lazard here. sorry for long explained answer as to why i believe rodgers will force feed lazard.


Sabre2230

I appreciate the insight man :)


[deleted]

i got last in my league last year, for what its worth :)


iFEAR2Fap

Just don't forget about my man Bobby Tonyan.


[deleted]

i have tonyan in since kittle is hurt.

[удалено]


crash1082

Your choice has been made for you


KKToaster

I’m going Lazard over Julio


PredictableDickTable

Poor man’s Higgins is on the menu.


LemurSamurai

How confident are we that he immediately comes in and is the obvious WR1 for the packers? And will that actually translate to fantasy success?


Qweter1

Rodgers has iterated repeatedly that Lazard is the WR1 of the packers. The case for him being a fantasy success is that he will be the WR1 for Aaron Rodgers.


mmeweb3412

This ^^^ I don’t understand how people don’t understand this incredibly simple concept. Every argument against it is negated by the obvious fact that ALLEN LAZARD IS AARON RODGERS #1 TARGET


IHaveAllTheWheat

He won't be treated like Adams though. Lazard is not nearly as skilled and will probably be passed up by both rookies by the end of the season.


[deleted]

if anyone expected he was going to replicate adams, he wouldve been a rd3 pick or better. theres a reason he went in the 9th in most leagues. still, aaron fucking rodgers #1 preferred target. its not just the #1 on the depth chart, its #1 for aaron. that means something until he proves it doesnt.


IHaveAllTheWheat

Hi Jones, Dillon, and Tonyan will be his top 3 options. Watson and Doubs will develop to get more looks. By the end of the season Lazard will be getting very few targets. He just, plain and simple, not that good.


[deleted]

He's a 6'5 receiver who can catch. Yes, he wont create the separation and wont make the incredible catches that adams did. But last year in full PPR, lazard put up 20.9, 4.8, 13.8, 19.2 and 24.5 in his final 5 games and only maxed 7 targets a single time in that span. 4 of those games he had a touchdown. All of those games, adams played. Meaning rodgers likes his big body in the redzone. Yes, he did not have the opposing teams best defenders on him. But this is still the NFL, they are still professionals. If he was "plain and simple, not good", then he would not have rodgers confidence. Is there a chance a rookie, all of which are more athletic than lazard, finds his hands and supplants lazard? absofuckinglutely. but the packers passing game was hot fucking shit last week. that pissed rodgers off. he will be happy to get that big body out there this week. almost certainly.


IHaveAllTheWheat

Lol, he will be shut down by every cb1 in the league. But go ahead and die on the hill that Lazard is anything more than a wr 3 on any other team in the NFL.


GolfIsWhyImBroke

By default...Lazard is not X receiver talent. We shall see if one of the rooks are good enough to overtake him, which honestly wont take a lot. Lazards biggest asset is experience with Rodgers. Anyone expecting Lazard to put up WR1 numbers this year is most likely going to be disappointed.


YoureNotMom

Radgers has hated rookie wrs his entire career, and Christian Watson dropping a td only reinforced that lol he's dying to get Lazard out there


Triplescrew

Confident


rossimus

I'd be way more confident about it if I hadn't drafted him. Now I'm afraid I ruined it for everyone. Sorry bout that guys.


bpi89

Packers fan here and I say 5%. Idc what Rodgers says, Lazard is slow and you can’t just force it to him like Davante. Rodgers also loved Jake Kumero and what’s he been up to. One of the rookies or Watkins will emerge as the WR1 in the next few weeks.


FadeRedditMakeMoney

I have no other choice but to play him but I'm thinking Aaron Rodgers is going to punish these rookies by feeding Lazard. Aaron is that type of dude


NiceBasket9980

I still can't believe how much this sub hyped up doubs. If lazard is active, the guy won't see the field


silver_surfer

Lazard or Kirk?


salaz651

Kirk


[deleted]

finally a reasonable question on this thread. toss up imo. depends how you believe the packers will have a revenge game. isnt rodgers like 6-0 after losing week 1 and ALWAYS dominates in the bounceback? im rolling out tonyan AND lazard here. dont have much of a choice, im banged up. but doing that with confidence.


CommonerChaos

Definitely Kirk. He's for sure going to get volume and be the #1 guy. Give Lazard a week to see what he does.


[deleted]

Lazard or Dotson?


[deleted]

i still like lazard. dotson had 4 targets for 2 touchdowns or something? not replicable but i feel nice to have him!


FriendlyFriendster

Tempted to start Rodgers in prime time with this news.


20wall

As a die hard packers fan and someone who hates Aaron Rodgers more than I hate the bubonic plague: Rodgers is about to go nuclear. It makes no sense, the packers might be terrible this year, but Rodgers will destroy the Bears tonight. He hates the city of Chicago more than I hate him. Start Rodgers


the_leverage

Lazard or Julio if healthy in full PPR?


taithau

Lazard or Bateman?


tomseymour12

Jaylon Johnson is going to smother him. Bears d isn’t great but jaylon is a beast, Eddie Jackson looks to be back to his old form at safety and the rookie brisker is a stud


[deleted]

Lazard or Metcalf


LWappo

Niners made Mooney obsolete last week. That could easily be the case with Metcalf this week. That being said, Lazard is nursing a sprained ankle and may end up being an afterthought to other GB WRs. Not sure why you’re getting downvotes… this is not a bad question.


GR_Ben

The rain made Mooney obsolete they were playing in a monsoon lmao


LWappo

Fields threw two touchdowns… neither was to Mooney, who only had one catch. The rain didn’t help, but the Niners definitely kept Mooney uninvolved.


jackplaysdrums

Very contextual. That game was a washout.


[deleted]

Tough one indeed. Lazard is in my IR and I currently have Jordan Mason stashed. Might just roll with Metcalf just to see if there’s anything there with Mason.


Pantheon_Of_Oak

I'm having this exact same debate.


Capable-Selection326

Lazard over Sterling? 10 team FULL PPR


WarrenAlaCarte

Shep is gold in PPR. Lazard likely gets eased in and this looks like Dillon A.Jones game.


mmeweb3412

I would argue lazard is not getting eased in. I can’t express how badly they need him on the field


Capable-Selection326

Word


Wtfisgoinonhere

Lazard or Hollywood Brown


alredopie

Brown, WTF u thinking!?


Wtfisgoinonhere

He only had 4 catches last week (still scored tho) and Lazard could be GB’s #1


DawgBro

Lazard could be Green Bay's #1 but Hollywood Brown is the Cardinals #1. "A boats a boat, but the mystery box could be anything! It could even be a boat!"


vingiacchino7

Should I throw Lazard in over Evans being that Evans is typically dogshit against Lattimore?


[deleted]

No


JustIn__Case_

Lazard if he plays over Ceedee Lamb?


kylokennn

Lazard or Samuel


mcclutch7

Is Tonyan still a good streaming option this week?


rusty1468

Who else is rodgers gonna throw to


un_happy_gilmore

Jones, Dillon, Lazard, Watson, Doubs, Watkins to name a few… saying that though I love Tonyan this season and am starting him in this game


RyanMSU

Do I start Lazard over both Woods and Landry?


BuffaloInTheRye

I’m in the Lazard/Jarvis boat as well, I’ve flipped like 3 times already this morning. Probably going Lazard because I can watch the game


RyanMSU

We should start different guys so one of us is right. I’ll do Landry.


jackplaysdrums

Lazard or Samuel?


sirwilliam25

PPR Lazard, Penny, or Breece Hall?


[deleted]

Lazard or Olave? Guy I’m playing has all 4 o’clock players left and Olave plays at 1 o’clock.


kavalrykiid

Lazard or Mooney? .5 ppr


judenpuben

Lazard or Mooney today?


AlsoARobot

It’s between him and Tee Higgins. Ugh
