Rotoworld doesn't think Coby Fleener is very good - fullmetal - 11-14-2014
Quote:Fleener drew a team-high 11 targets. He entered the game with just 31 targets across the first eight games, so obviously we don't advise chasing this. While Fleener caught a 32-yard touchdown after making a juggling catch on the previous play, we still saw much of the Fleener we've come to know. He had a ball bounce off his head in the end zone and had another one whizz by him when he failed to adjust to it in the air. He's not a good football player.

Does anyone else concur with their conclusions? Part of it is that Rotoworld's conclusions tend to favor athletes who are doing well with fantasy stats, but what they're choosing to highlight (or lowlight, in this case) seems to be a direct indictment of Fleener's skills.

I think "not a good football player" is a bit unfair. He's a guy a lot of teams would be more than happy to have at TE, especially as a #2 TE. He's not Graham, Gates or Gronkowski, but he's fastest, makes some tough catches, runs good routes, and is a fair blocker. I think there is an effort problem, sometimes. Some of those targets last week were catchable and he didn't appear to make the effort.

He also seems to have a bad drop or two a game.
