So I want to take a look at two Wide receivers. These two wide receivers were both selected in the same draft class. They both play with great QBs. They both play on prolific offenses and they can both help your fantasy team. They've also both found moderate success in ...

Have you figured it out yet? Let me help. Both these guys see light coverage as a result of playing along side other talented WRs. Both play in the NFC.

T1 is Michael Gallup. T2 is Calvin Ridley

Why am I comparing these guys? Read on.

Gallup finished 2019 with only 6
Fewer targets than Amari Cooper. He also produced a nice 2.16 yards per route run. He also plays for the leagues No.1 offense in terms of yards per play.

For his part, Ridley averaged almost 18 PPR PPG after Mohammed Sanu was traded. He posted a career best YPT and the Falcons
Have more vacated targets than any team in the league (Dallas is second)

Are you still with me? Good. Both these guys are primed for that third year breakout thought to be a thing of the past. But one of them has an ADP of 4.05 and the other is Michael Gallup. He's going ...
In the seventh round. 7.08 to be exact. Truly criminal in comparison. Their dynasty ADP isn't much different. With Ridley checking in at 4.06 and Gallup a full round+ later. Folks the Cowboys didn't take CeeDee Lamb because they had a need. He fell into their lap. And with all
The uncertainty of the offseason swirling, I'll happily take a piece of the number one offense in the 7th round. Especially one that was PPR WR8 after the teams bye and already has the trust of his QB... Five of his six touchdowns came while Dak Prescott was under pressure.
