I had to throw at least one Jaguar I feel is being slept on, and that player is going to be DJ Chark. I know a lot of people are talking about Dede Westbrook for the Jags, and I don't really know why. Yes, he flashed a bit last year, and he could step up, but to what? What is Westbrook's ceiling? I think DJ has a legitimate shot at making a real impact this year for the Jags, and nobody is talking about him. His ADP is currently at 280, and his WR ranking is at 95. I think especially in PPR, you cannot afford to let this guy slip. Take him in the last round if you have to, but get him on your roster.

Let's talk about why the Jags took him in the second round. He ran a 4.34 40, a vertical jump at 40 inches, and a broad jump of 129. Great measurables, good speed, and he is putting it together on the practice field. There are reports from beat writers saying he is beating out Ramsey and Bouye on some passes, which is almost unbelievable. Bouye is talking him up, and apparently, he beat Ramsey on a long touchdown just this week.

Most importantly, who the hell is going to beat him out for a WR1 spot? Moncrief? He was only ok because Andrew Luck was throwing him the ball. Lee? He will pull his hamstring or sprain an ankle by week 2. Westbrook might be the only player who is going to push him.

Think of the potential of just volume for DJ. Currently, on fftoday.com's rankings, Martavis Bryant is listed as their 61st best wide receiver. Darrius Heyward-Bey is at 136. DJ Chark isn't even listed. Barring injury, DJ should have more of an opportunity and has a better skill set than DHB. Last year, DHB had 2 receptions for 47 yards. The year before, 6 for 114 yards. The past 2 seasons Martavis Bryant has played (2015 and 2017) he had 50 receptions for 765 and 603 yards. Last year, Allen Hurns, the defacto number one wide receiver for the Jags, only played in 10 games and managed to amass almost 500 yards. I think Chark will top that this year. Take him. Just like all the players I have written about this week, he is FREE!

I know yesterday I wrote about the Bengals, but let's stick with another Bengals wide receiver, Auden Tate. What I always heard about Tate was that he was slow, and his transition into the NFL wouldn't be a good one from FSU because of his mediocre speed. The guy ran a 4.68 40 at the combine. This was exactly Gronkowski's speed when he did the combine, and if you watch Gronk, he isn't good because he's fast, he's good because he is a monster of a human being. Ben Roethlisberger ran a 4.75 40. What I am getting at, is these times are gross. I should also mention that his high jump was 31 inches (average is 35 inches for the position) and his broad jump was 112 inches (par for the position is about 120). In regards to his measurable athletic ability, this guy isn't there.
Something very few people are talking about is the size of this guy. He is beating cornerbacks because he is 6 foot 5, 227 pounds. These measurables are close to Calvin Johnson, who was 6 foot 5, 239 pounds (Megatron ran a 4.35 40). I am NOT saying he is going to be Calvin Johnson who was easily a generational talent. I am saying with his size, and the average corner being 6 foot, (and with 6 foot 3 being a HUGE cornerback that was drafted this year), and with an offense that seems to love big receivers (see AJ Green), and a pretty good team around him, he could be successful.
Also, as with everyone else I have written about this week, he is free. Not even being drafted. I picked him up on waivers in my dynasty league a few weeks ago. Put the guy on your watch list.
Check out this game-winning touchdown (it's preseason, but whatever).

Out of the two Bengals WRs I would still take Boyd, just because he has been in the NFL for 2 full years. But, don't sleep on this guy.
