Josh Palmer 2021 (Chargers WR)

Josh Palmer, 22yo Tennessee Senior, 6'1/210. Drafted by the Chargers in the 3rd round, I see him as a good dark horse in dynasty leagues. Actually I was hoping for him to go a bit later.

From the game against Alabama:

Excellent route and run after the catch, against Patrick Surtain #2.

Again, beating Surtain for the catch. This is some serious catch.

From the game Tennessee @ Georgia, where #5 had 4/71/2 (!!):

Tries to trick the CB into biting, then tries to pass on speed (CB is faster) and in the end still wins the catch. Result is a TD but not his best play.

Similar deep play, although this time the throw is over the shoulder, and he makes the catch. The replay was ruled a TD but to me he's clearly stepping outside with half a foot.

Seth Williams 2021 (Broncos WR)

Seth Williams was drafted in the 6th round by the Broncos, but he was actually the highest scoring receiver at Auburn in 2020, ahead of Anthony Schwartz who went 3 rounds earlier. Just turned 21, good size/weight at 6'3/211.

George Kittle (2020)

"Singing hey diddle diddle with a Kittle in the middle..." We are now so used to having monster TE receivers that it's easy to overlook the achievement of Kittle - only 14 TEs in the past 30 years had multiple 1000yd seasons, and only 5 in history had multiple seasons before their 27th birthday (10 points if you can name the others besides the obvious Gronk and Kittle).

Fantasy Theory: Running Back Peak Age

Now that we know receivers peak around age 25-27 , what can we say about Running Backs?

You want some stats with that?
