Fantasy Football 2021: Odell Beckham leads WRs going too early/late
#2 Ja’Marr Chase WR/ Cincinnati Bengals ADP: 9.06
I want to quote an article I read from an immensely talented writer (kidding, it’s my article), “Chase is reunited with his college QB Joe Burrow, and let’s not forget, this man made Justin Jefferson, last season’s rookie phenom, a forgettable presence on the LSU national championship team.”
Going behind guys like Will Fuller, Brandin Cooks, and Marquise Brown is going to seem ridiculous at this time next year. Be one of the people bragging that you nailed the next rookie WR stud and take Chase in the 7th or 8th, those are the reach rounds anyway.
His weakness is going to be a lack of experience and maybe getting back into football shape from his year off, but Chase profiles to me as a top 20 WR with the upside to be this year’s Justin Jefferson.
1,200 yards isn’t absurd for him, and he’ll probably grab at least 6 touchdowns this season.
