I know 2014 is still pretty fresh in people's minds, but the next 2 years is there any WR other than Michael Thomas who has had a great rookie season? Tons of disappointments there. Being on a run-focused team that has some other good wr options in Decker and Mathews and a solid te in Walker to sucking up the already limited targets isn't doing him any favors imo.
Also, the rbs in your list are all in pretty good situations opportunity-wise, which is a large part of the battle with rbs these days. You don't need to be that good to be valuable at rb. I feel like if anything I generally lean too far to the talent side vs the opportunity/situation side, but Wolves puts me to shame on that front
Also while rbs obv have a much shorter shelf-life than wrs, even in dynasty I'm not trying to plan too far ahead given how much stuff changes year to year in football. Winning now is often undervalued in football dynasty leagues imo.
