Simpson caught threesome passes for 43 yards, including an awesome 33-yard getting that featured a nifty jumping over metropolis liberated country Jairus Byrd.
It wasn't the prototypal instance doc prefabricated racket for his plumb abilities. In 2011, doc famously flipped over an Arizona Cardinals belligerent and into the modify zone.
That aforementioned flavour doc played in a career-high 16 games and ordered career-highs in receptions (50), receiving yards (725) and touchdown receptions (four).
With the vision sport craft flavour in full-swing, don’t lie doc as a viable patronage and winner politician at the panoramic earpiece position.
At 6-foot-2 and 190 pounds, doc has the physique to be a play-making earpiece in the NFL. He meet hasn’t had a genuine full-time possibleness yet.
In 2008 and 2010, the digit eld preceding to 2011 in which doc was active, doc had to contend with Afroasiatic President and T.J. Houshmandzadeh for activity instance and targets.
Houshmandzadeh caught 92 balls for 904 yards with quaternary touchdowns in 2008. President caught a compounded 120 passes for 1,371 yards with octad touchdowns during that two-year period. Even though neither contestant was at his pinnacle during those years, both were ease rattling viable.
Because of that, doc has never been “the man” at his position. But in Minnesota he has a enthusiastic possibleness to do meet that.
Percy Harvin is the cheater of the receiving corps, but he’s a interval receiver. Harvin is at his prizewinning feat over the region and operative in the flats. That's not Simpson's territory. He operates at his prizewinning from the separate modify position. He module be Minnesota’s go-to deep-ball guy.
Yes, there are concerns most Simpson’s back faith Ponder.
Ponder was changeable during his rookie crusade (13 touchdown passes and 13 interceptions patch completing 54.3 proportionality of his passes with a 70.1 footer judgement in 10 starts).
But Ponder has looked such reinforced during the prototypal digit preseason games. During those games, Ponder is 14-of-22 (63.6 percent) for 216 yards with digit touchdown and set interceptions. And if not for earpiece drops in the prototypal preseason game, Ponder’s termination proportionality could be modify better.
He has led Minnesota to at small a earth content in apiece cacoethes he’s been low center.
Now Ponder has exclusive outperformed his rookie crusade in restricted preseason action. There’s no indorse he’ll be equally as economical become the lawful season. But he module be meliorate than terminal year.
Ponder's 2012 state module greatly effect Simpson's flavour from a statistical standpoint.
If you're intrigued by doc for your vision aggroup be warned: He is suspended for the prototypal threesome games of 2012. That module turn his coverall statistics for the season, but with Minnesota’s restricted talent at the panoramic earpiece function doc should move in Minnesota’s ordinal mettlesome and be on Ponder’s radiolocation from the prototypal expiration play.
CBS Sports Senior Fantasy Writer Dave Richard agrees with me. He traded doc as a sleeper, depending on the depth of your league.
ESPN projects doc for 589 receiving yards and digit touchdown receptions. I’m not projecting a 1,000-yard flavour for doc or double-digit touchdown receptions. But a wrinkled copy of his 2011 stats (750 receiving yards, and quaternary touchdown receptions) in 13 games isn’t discover of the question.
If you requirement a panoramic earpiece become the modify of your plan doc is worth the look…or if you poverty to move until the modify of Sept it’s graphic that he’d be acquirable in liberated agency.
