Housh gets it

I'm in no way saying Tee is a bad pick or a bad player, but the idea that he's "a WR1 until proven otherwise" is silly to me.  He hasn't proven he's a WR1, yet.  I'm happy with his play as a rookie, apart from drops and fumbles, but he isn't at that level and may not get there.  

I'd agree he's inconsistent on catches and i don't think i quite understood before...but i don't think i'd say he's a #1 until proven otherwise. I think it would be more accurate to say he's potentially a good #1. 

I checked out the first 8 games for some rookies this past season and here's how they stacked up--granted Lamb was without Dak after game 5. 

Jeudy - 484 yds 2 tds  61 tgts
Lamb - 524 yds 2 tds  61 tgts
Jefferson- 627 yds 3 tds  44 tgts
Higgins - 603 yds 4 tds  61 tgts
Claypool- 444 yds 5 tds  47 tgts

It would have been real interesting to see how he would have ended up had Burrow not been injured.
