2020 Fantasy Football Rankings - Wide Receivers (Jan. 31):
Top 10 | 11-20 | 21-40 | 41-60 | 61-100
Other Positions: QB | RB | TE | Top 250 | Sleepers | Busts
- Marquise Brown, WR, Ravens. Bye: 8.
Marquise Brown is an explosive receiver who can go the distance any time he touches the ball. The problem is that Baltimore utilizes such a run-heavy offense, so unless things change, Brown’s targets won’t be very high.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 41 catches. 670 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 111.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 152.
- D.K. Metcalf, WR, Seahawks. Bye: 11.
AUG. 20 UPDATE: D.K. Metcalf will undergo a knee scope soon, meaning he could miss a couple of weeks in the regular season. This is obviously not ideal for a very raw rookie like Metcalf, whom I wasn’t high on to begin with. I see no reason to draft Metcalf in non-dynasty leagues.
D.K. Metcalf has ridiculous physical ability, but doesn’t know how to play receiver. It’ll take him a while to learn the game, if it ever happens. With Doug Baldwin gone, Metcalf may have a chance to take the field soon.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 45 catches. 650 yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 110.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 155.
- John Brown, WR, Bills. Bye: 6.
John Brown had a nice rebound season in the first half of 2018. He had a couple of 100-yard performances and managed to stay healthy for the first time in a few years. Brown signed with the Bills, and he’ll catch some deep passes from Josh Allen and his rocket arm. He’ll be inconsistent fantasy player.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 44 catches. 730 total yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 109.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 153.
- J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, WR, Eagles. Bye: 10.
J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is a huge target who could catch several touchdowns in his rookie year, especially if Nelson Agholor is moved, as expected.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 40 catches. 580 yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 109.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 149.
- Mohamed Sanu, WR, Falcons. Bye: 9.
Mohamed Sanu eclipsed 800 receiving yards for the first time in his career in 2018. Sanu is a viable bye-week filler in favorable matchups, but he’s third in the pecking order at receiver with Calvin Ridley on the roster.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 63 catches. 770 yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 107.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 170.
- Jamison Crowder, WR, Jets. Bye: 4.
Jamison Crowder was Washington’s No. 1 receiver last year, but he couldn’t stay healthy; he played in only nine games. Crowder signed with the Jets this season, but even with a better quarterback, he’ll be difficult to trust in fantasy.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 59 catches. 750 yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 105.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 164.
- Jakobi Meyers, WR, Patriots. Bye: 10.
AUG. 30 UPDATE: Jakobi Meyers has really faded as the summer has progressed. He began training camp by being Tom Brady’s favorite receiver, but he didn’t do much in the preseason finale. He caught one pass for 28 yards, and he was also guilty of a drop. With Josh Gordon reinstated, and Demaryius Thomas looking healthy, Meyers has no re-draft fantasy value.
AUG. 23 UPDATE: Jakobi Meyers has enjoyed some bright moments this summer, but he took a big step backward in the dress rehearsal. The stat box says otherwise because Meyers caught seven passes for 74 yards, but he really screwed up when Tom Brady was on the field. Brady took a deep shot to Meyers on one occasion, but Meyers stopped running the route for some reason. Meyers then dropped a Brady pass. On another occasion, Brady had Meyers open, but decided not to throw to him, probably because he was fed up with his screw-ups. Meyers, to his credit, rebounded with a couple of diving catches, but Brady was long gone by that point. It’s a shame that Meyers struggled, as he had a golden opportunity to establish himself as a fixture in New England’s offense.
AUG. 17 UPDATE: With Josh Gordon reinstated, N’Keal Harry and Jakobi Meyers look much less appealing for fantasy. Keep in mind that Gordon has a good chance of being suspended again, so either of these players aren’t bad late-round fliers.
AUG. 9 UPDATE: Jakobi Meyers was the best New England receiver to play at Detroit. He hauled in six of his eight targets for 69 yards and two touchdowns. The Lions had trouble defending him, and Meyers made an impressive reception when he secured a 26-yard gain on a high throw before halftime. Meyers was guilty of one mistake during the evening when he committed an illegal crackback block, but he ended up scoring on the drive anyway. Meyers has been Tom Brady’s favorite receiver in training camp, so it was nice to see him carry his positive play into real action.
Rookie Jakobi Meyers has taken over as Tom Brady’s favorite target in training camp. Meyers has good size (6-2, 203) and could be a threat in the end zone if he continues to perform well. I’ll be watching him closely during the preseason.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 44 catches. 610 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 105.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 149.
- Randall Cobb, WR, Cowboys. Bye: 8.
Randall Cobb fell out of favor with the Packers. He just hasn’t been a reliable player because of his constant injuries. He signed with the Cowboys to play the Cole Beasley role, but I wouldn’t be too optimistic.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 58 catches. 640 yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 104.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 162.
- Preston Williams, WR, Dolphins. Bye: 5.
Preston Williams was the best player on the field for either Miami or Atlanta in the preseason opener. An undrafted rookie, Williams made some breath-taking catches. He secured a reception when a defender was draped all over him. He snared a one-handed grab for 36 yards. He also made a nice adjustment on a back-shoulder throw and then reeled in a great, leaping catch over cornerback Kendall Sheffield. Perhaps the most impressive play saw Williams make a terrific toe-tapping catch along the sideline, which was ruled a reception after replay review. Williams was amazing, tallying four catches for 97 yards. There’s a legitimate chance that the 6-foot-5, 218-pound Williams eventually ends up as Miami’s No. 1 receiver. He should start sooner rather than later, and he could be relevant in fantasy this year.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 55 catches. 690 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 103.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 158.
- Marqise Lee, WR, Jaguars. Bye: 10.
AUG. 11 UPDATE: Marqise Lee may not be ready for the season opener because of a knee injury, according to head coach Doug Marrone. This is a bummer for Nick Foles and the Jaguars. As for fantasy, Lee is not on the radar at the moment.
Marquise Lee suffered a knee injury with ligament damage last August and missed all of 2018 as a result. It remains to be seen if he’ll be 100 percent for 2019. Lee’s quarterbacking situation has improved, so perhaps there’s some potential here.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 58 catches. 680 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 102.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 160.
- Donte Moncrief, WR, Steelers. Bye: 7.
Donte Moncrief robbed the Jaguars organization last year, catching 48 passes for 668 yards despite earning $9.5 million. Shouldn’t that constitute as grand larceny? At any rate, Moncrief has a chance to be more productive in Pittsburgh this year.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 53 catches. 720 yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 102.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 155.
- Michael Gallup, WR, Cowboys. Bye: 8.
Michael Gallup caught 33 passes for 507 yards and two touchdowns as a rookie. He’ll continue to develop as he gets more experience, though he could just remain an inconsistent deep threat.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 54 catches. 770 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 101.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 155.
- Adam Humphries, WR, Titans. Bye: 11.
While DeSean Jackson was more productive with Ryan Fitzpatrick, Adam Humphries was able to excel with Jameis Winston. Humphries caught 76 passes for 816 yards and five touchdowns last year despite beginning the year slowly. Humphries will be a nice safety valve for Marcus Mariota, but his potential will be capped in a run-heavy offense.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 65 catches. 700 yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 100.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 165.
- Jalen Hurd, WR, 49ers. Bye: 4.
AUG. 28 UPDATE: Jalen Hurd may not be ready for Week 1 because of a back injury. This is a shame, as Hurd was previously listed on the Fantasy Football Sleepers page. That’s no longer the case because of the injury.
Jalen Hurd had three catches for 31 yards and scored twice against Dallas. He muscled his way into the end zone against two defenders on his first score, then boxed out the defender on his second touchdown. Hurd was very impressive and is worthy enough of late-round fantasy consideration.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 47 catches. 600 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 99.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 146.
- D.J. Chark, WR, Jaguars. Bye: 10.
D.J. Chark had a disappointing rookie year as a second-rounder, catching only 14 passes for 174 yards. Chark has potential, and perhaps Nick Foles give him a chance to be a viable option.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 48 catches. 640 yards. 4 total TD.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 98.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 146.
- Anthony Miller, WR, Bears. Bye: 6.
Anthony Miller had some nice outputs as a rookie last year, but was highly inconsistent. To be more of a reliable receiver, he’ll need Mitchell Trubisky to take the next step.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 59 catches. 740 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 98.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 157.
- Ted Ginn, WR, Saints. Bye: 9.
Ted Ginn saw plenty of targets when he was on the field last year, but still proved to be an inefficient receiver. He also couldn’t stay healthy, playing in only five games.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 48 catches. 700 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 94.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 142.
- Keelan Cole, WR, Jaguars. Bye: 10.
Keelan Cole had much hype heading into the year, and that only intensified after he had a brilliant performance against the Patriots in Week 2. Cole, however, made too many mistakes and eventually lost his job. Perhaps he’ll finally live up to his potential with Nick Foles, but he’ll need to stop making errors.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 49 catches. 690 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 93.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 142.
- N’Keal Harry, WR, Patriots. Bye: 10.
AUG. 17 UPDATE: With Josh Gordon reinstated, N’Keal Harry and Jakobi Meyers look much less appealing for fantasy. Keep in mind that Gordon has a good chance of being suspended again, so either of these players aren’t bad late-round fliers.
AUG. 13 UPDATE: N’Keal Harry is now missing practice because of both hamstring and foot injuries. This is obviously far from ideal if you like Harry as a late-round fantasy sleeper. I would go in a different direction at this time.
AUG. 2 UPDATE: N’Keal Harry has been outplayed in practice by someone named Jakobi Meyers, which is not necessarily praise for Meyers. Harry has endured a poor summer thus far, and it sounds like he’s way down on the depth chart. He’s off the re-draft fantasy radar.
JULY 29 UPDATE: N’Keal Harry has been working with the second team after an underwhelming minicamp. Harry could eventually emerge as a starter, but he’s not off to a good start.
JUNE 17 UPDATE: N’Keal Harry didn’t perform well in minicamp, according to the Boston Globe’s Ben Volin. While Harry had plenty of first-team reps, he struggled to separate, which was the primary criticism of him entering the 2019 NFL Draft. June is a time for puff pieces, so this story is very discouraging for Harry’s 2019 outlook.
JUNE 5 UPDATE: N’Keal Harry worked extensively with the starters on the first day of Patriots’ minicamp. This is obviously great news for his 2019 outlook. Harry could be a major end-zone target for Tom Brady in the wake of Rob Gronkowski’s retirement.
The Patriots haven’t used a first-round pick on a receiver prior to N’Keal Harry, so they obviously have big plans for him. He’ll take the Josh Gordon role in between the 20s, and he could see lots of end-zone looks, given Rob Gronkowski’s retirement.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 42 catches. 590 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 93.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 135.
- Tyrell Williams, WR, Raiders. Bye: 6.
Tyrell Williams is an inconsistent deep threat who should only be rostered in deeper leagues. His fantasy value took a hit when he signed with Oakland.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 42 catches. 680 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 92.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 134.
- Demaryius Thomas, WR, Patriots. Bye: 10.
SEPT. 3 UPDATE: Demaryius Thomas has re-signed with the Patriots. I was surprised when New England released Thomas because he looked so good in the preseason, but bringing him back was apparently planned all along.
SEPT. 1 UPDATE: Demaryius Thomas looked good in the final preseason game, but it apparently didn’t matter. The Patriots have waived Thomas, which is a shame because it looked like he could contribute for New England.
Demaryius Thomas was also on the field in the preseason finale, and he played for the entire first half. I didn’t know what to expect from Thomas, but he looked like he could be productive this season. He reeled in seven of his eight targets for 87 yards and two touchdowns. I don’t think it’s crazy to think that Thomas could be a decent fantasy option this year. If Rob Gronkowski doesn’t return, Tom Brady will be looking for a dependable, large target in the end zone, and Thomas could fill that void.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 45 catches. 570 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 91.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 136.
- Paul Richardson, WR, Redskins. Bye: 10.
Paul Richardson signed a 5-year, $40 million contract last offseason. He gave the Redskins just 20 catches for 262 yards and two touchdowns. Some of that was on Alex Smith, but Richardson isn’t a very good football player.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 48 catches. 640 total yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 88.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 136.
- Quincy Enunwa, WR, Jets. Bye: 4.
Quincy Enunwa was Sam Darnold’s favorite receiver to start 2018, as the rookie leaned on the slot receiver like a crutch. This changed later in the year, so expect Enunwa to produce mediocre numbers.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 55 catches. 690 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 87.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 142.
- Chris Conley, WR, Jaguars. Bye: 10.
Chris Conley has been Jacksonville’s best receiver in OTAs thus far, per an ESPN report. This sounds like it could be a typical June puff piece, but there might be something to it because Conley and Nick Foles spent time together in Kansas City. I’ll need to see Conley play well in the preseason before recommending him as a late-round sleeper.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 40 catches. 620 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 86.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 126.
- Trent Taylor, WR, 49ers. Bye: 10.
Trent Taylor is now the favorite to be the 49ers’ starting slot receiver, thanks to the tutelage he has received this offseason from Wes Welker. Taylor is learning from one of the best slot receivers ever, so there’s a chance that he’ll emerge as a solid PPR option this year as one of Jimmy Garoppolo’s favorite targets.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 59 catches. 620 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 86.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 145.
- Taylor Gabriel, WR, Bears. Bye: 6.
Taylor Gabriel is a nifty gadget-type weapon, but his production doesn’t translate to fantasy very well. He had 67 catches for 688 yards and only two touchdowns last season. He was used a bit less later in the year.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 62 catches. 680 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 86.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 148.
- Cole Beasley, WR, Bills. Bye: 6.
Cole Beasley is a matchup-dependent slot receiver. He’s a better real-life player than fantasy asset.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 56 catches. 600 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 84.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 140.
- Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Chiefs. Bye: 12.
Kelvin Benjamin is a bum who doesn’t care about his career. Don’t bother with him.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 45 catches. 650 receiving yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 83.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 128.
- Josh Doctson, WR, Redskins. Bye: 10.
Josh Doctson is a first-round bust. He has yet to top 44 catches for 532 yards in a season. He had six touchdowns in 2017, but that was a fluke.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 48 catches. 580 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 82.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 130.
- Kendrick Bourne, WR, 49ers. Bye: 4.
Kendrick Bourne showed some promise in his second year, catching 42 passes for 487 yards and four touchdowns in 2018. Bourne could be San Francisco’s No. 2 receiver in 2019, but Deebo Samuel could overtake him.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 50 catches. 570 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 81.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 131.
- Damion Willis, WR, Bengals. Bye: 9.
Damion Willis will start across from Tyler Boyd while A.J. Green is out. This is newsworthy because Willis will be a No. 2 receiver in an offense that isn’t worthless, but keep in mind that Willis will become irrelevant once A.J. Green returns from injury. He’s not worth rostering unless you’re in a very deep league.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 40 catches. 520 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 80.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 120.
- Equanimeous St. Brown, WR, Packers. Bye: 11.
Equanimeous St. Brown is a promising, young receiver despite being a sixth-round pick last year. St. Brown had his best games as a rookie when Randall Cobb was out of the lineup. Given that Cobb is gone, St. Brown seems like a promising sleeper.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 40 catches. 520 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 80.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 120.
- DaeSean Hamilton, WR, Broncos. Bye: 10.
DaeSean Hamilton did a good job of taking over as Denver’s slot receiver when Emmanuel Sanders went down. Hamilton’s PPR upside took a hit in the wake of Case Keenum’s departure.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 55 catches. 510 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 79.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 134.
- Terry McLaurin, WR, Redskins. Bye: 10.
he cupboard is pretty bare for the Redskins at receiver, so Terry McLaurin has a shot to contribute extensively as early as his rookie campaign.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 48 catches. 540 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 78.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 126.
- Danny Amendola, WR, Lions. Bye: 5.
Much was expected from Danny Amendola last year after he had a strong training camp. However, his first and only year in Miami was a dud, as he caught just 59 passes for 575 yards and a touchdown in 2018. His stats could increase with Matthew Stafford, but Amendola, who turns 34 in November, looks close to being done.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 54 catches. 520 yards. 4 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 76.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 130.
- Antonio Callaway, WR, Browns. Bye: 7.
AUG. 9 UPDATE: Antonio Callaway has been suspended for four games. It appeared as though Rashard Higgins was emerging as the No. 3 receiver anyway, so there’s no reason to use a fantasy draft pick on Callaway.
Antonio Callaway slipped to the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft because of character concerns. He certainly has great ability, however, and he was able to catch 43 passes for 586 yards and five touchdowns as a rookie. His production was set to increase as he and Baker Mayfield matured together, but Odell Beckham Jr. will take away plenty of targets.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 35 catches. 550 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 73.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 108.
- Deon Cain, WR, Colts. Bye: 6.
Deon Cain missed last season with an injury. He was a sixth-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, and he outplayed his status in the second preseason game. Cain was excellent, using his speed to catch seven passes for 80 yards. He made a great reception in traffic and made a man miss to pick up a gain of 38. He later secured a terrific sideline catch, getting both of his feet down before falling out of play. Cain has talent, and there’s an opportunity to move up the depth chart. He’s a fine late-round flier, as his upside is tremendous if he can play with Andrew Luck during real action.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 26 catches. 410 yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 73.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 99.
- Hunter Renfrow, WR, Raiders. Bye: 6.
Hunter Renfrow has a chance to catch a ton of passes this season in the event of an Antonio Brown injury, much like Jordy Nelson did last year after Amari Cooper was dealt.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 48 catches. 620 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 72.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 122.
- Michael Crabtree, WR, Cardinals. Bye: 12.
Michael Crabtree’s main role in Arizona will be to teach Kliff Kingsbury’s offense to the young receivers. I would not spend a fantasy pick on him.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 30 catches. 490 yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 71.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 101.
- Zay Jones, WR, Bills. Bye: 6.
Zay Jones had a nice second season, especially considering that he had some off-the-field mental problems prior to the year beginning. The Bills added some talent at receiver this offseason, so he’s not much of a fantasy factor anymore.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 40 catches. 500 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 68.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 108.
- Keke Coutee, WR, Texans. Bye: 10.
SEPT. 1 UPDATE: Keke Coutee is no longer fantasy relevant in the wake of the Kenny Stills trade, as Stills projects to be Houston’s new No. 3 receiver.
AUG. 27 UPDATE: Keke Coutee suffered an injury in the preseason, but has returned to practice earlier than anticipated. Coutee should be ready to play in the opener.
AUG. 9 UPDATE: The biggest news stemming from the Packers-Texans game was Keke Coutee’s ankle injury. The second-year receiver went down in the first half. It was initially seen as a scary injury, but the news has since been encouraging. Hopefully, that continues to be the case, but if you’re drafting this weekend, you might want to bump Coutee down a bit.
AUG. 8 UPDATE: The Texans obtained Duke Johnson, who will catch 40-65 passes for them this year. Someone will lose out on receptions, and Keke Coutee figures to be the primary victim. I’m not going to drop Coutee that much in the Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings, but he’ll be shifted down a bit.
Keke Coutee will be a receptions magnet if healthy. He looked good as Houston’s slot receiver last year as a mere rookie, but played only six games. He’s worth a late-round pick in PPR leagues.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 40 catches. 460 yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 68.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 108.
- Parris Campbell, WR, Colts. Bye: 6.
Parris Campbell has Percy Harvin-type upside with the ability to go the distance any time he touches the ball. He’s playing in a high-octane offense, so he has great potential for both the future and his rookie year.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 24 catches. 350 yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 67.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 91.
- Willie Snead, WR, Ravens. Bye: 9.
Willie Snead was having a nice bounce-back campaign this past season, but that changed when Lamar Jackson took over at quarterback. Snead’s production plummeted when that happened. Snead can’t be used in fantasy with Jackson at the helm.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 39 catches. 440 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 62.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 101.
- John Ross, WR, Bengals. Bye: 9.
John Ross had an opportunity to shine late in the year when A.J. Green, Tyler Boyd and Tyler Eifert out with injuries. Despite this, he never caught more than three passes, and he didn’t even top 13 receiving yards in his final five games. Can you say bust?
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 28 catches. 330 yards. 3 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 51.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 79.
- Marcell Ateman, WR, Raiders. Bye: 6.
Marcell Ateman was listed as a starter on the Raiders heading into the offseason, but that’s not the case anymore.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 36 catches. 390 yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 51.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 87.
- Robert Foster, WR, Bills. Bye: 6.
Robert Foster was Buffalo’s No. 2 receiver last year. He had some big performances in the second half of the season, eclipsing the century receiving mark thrice. The Bills, however, added plenty of talented receivers in the offseason.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 24 catches. 360 yards. 2 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 48.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 72.
- Doug Baldwin, WR, None. Bye: 0.
The Seahawks drafted three wide receivers because they were worried about Doug Baldwin’s career moving forward. Thus, it was no surprise that Baldwin was released.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Stats: 0 catches. 0 yards. 0 total TDs.
Projected 2019 Fantasy Points: 0.
Projected 2019 PPR Fantasy Points: 0.
