Footballguys Consensus

WR71

Jason Wood

WR94

Loses a ton of value with this trade, going from the possible No. 2 target in Carolina to at best the 4th option once Addison returns from suspension.

Phil Alexander

WR67

35 year old always seems to outperform his ADP. Not much upside, but should be a steady producer in Minnesota, especially early in the season while Jordan Addison serves his suspension. Getting out of Carolina's crowded young wide receiver room is good for his value.

Matt Waldman

WR91

Thielen offers 55-60 catches, 600-700 yards, and 5-6 scores at this point in his career, if he's needed in this capacity. He may earn 30-40 percent of the yardage totals during his first month with the Vikings, but without additional injuries, don't expect his Carolina seasons.

Ben Cummins

WR61

Good, reliable veteran who has produced when on the field in both seasons with the Panthers. But he'll be 35 years old this season.

WR139

A 34-year-old receiver who is likely going into his last season is not a guy I'm looking to put on my roster in a dynasty. I'll take just about any lottery ticket instead.
