After having @nickofwigan on the podcast this week and pick Terry McLaurin as one of his 5 dynasty players to build around it's really got me thinking.

Is he currently overpriced?

So I thought I'd dig into it

Current ADP (per DLF) - WR11 (32nd Overall)

Price - early 1st
Age: 25

Draft Capital: 3rd Round

Contract: on rookie deal UFA in 2023
2019:
WR 25 Overall
WR 28 in PPG

14 games
93 Targets
58 receptions
919 yards
7 TD
191.9 pts
13.7 ppg

2020:
WR 22 Overall
WR 21 in PPG

14 games
126 targets
80 receptions
1078 yards
3 TD
206.8 pts
14.8 ppg
Out of college he was an older prospect for example, is a year older than Juju despite 2 years less NFL experience.

An exceptional all-round receiver with strong hands and excellent route-running ability. Matt Harmon and his reception perception absolutely love McLaurin
The biggest issue for him through two years has been his abysmal QB play. In 2020 he was 75th in catchable target rate at 73.9% per playerprofiler.

McLaurin should see a bump in QB play in 2021 with Washington set to address the position whether that be via trade, draft or FA
I understand the love for him and think he could be a top 12 receiver in 2021 with an uptick in QB play but my issue comes with his price

As the WR11 the upgrade in QB play is already baked into his price. He was the WR25 and WR22 through 2 season and certainly isn't young at 25
Players going after McLaurin include Tee Higgins, Chris Godwin and DJ Moore. All of which have outproduced McLaurin or are much younger.

At his current price, McLaurin has got to be a sell I currently have him ranked as my WR16 and behind Higgins, Godwin and Moore.
