Name |
Notes |
|
Andre Johnson |
29% of targets in last 3 yrs when Schaub, Daniels and Walter are in
the lineup; projects to 100+ catches; 6.6 catches per game and 0.6
TDs per game in last 4 yrs. |
|
Reggie Wayne |
Hasn't missed a start in 8 yrs; 91 catches per year in last 5 yrs;
return of Gonzalez may hurt a little; top 16 WR for six straight
years - very safe pick again. |
|
Randy Moss |
He somewhat struggled in the final few games of the year; 47 TDs in
3 yrs with NE; has missed only 6 games in 12 yrs. |
|
Roddy White |
Pretty much the same offense as last year; has not missed a start in
5 years; 80+ catches in 3 straight years; now amongst the best WRs
in the NFL. |
|
Wes Welker |
346 catches in his 46 regular season games with the Pats; will be
ready for week 1; top 10 WR in 3 straight years in PPR; much better
in 2009 than in 2008 but his ADP dropped from 11 to 16. |
|
Miles Austin |
65 catches in final 10 games (including 2 in playoffs); risky
because he came out of nowhere last year but is still #1 WR on an
excellent offense. |
|
Calvin Johnson |
Caught 43 of the 88 passes thrown his way in the final 8 games of
2009; won't see as many targets with addition of Burleson but should
catch a higher %. |
|
Brandon Marshall |
3 straight seasons of 100+ catches with 2 different coaches and QBs;
Miami passed almost as often as Denver last year; very good o-line. |
|
Larry Fitzgerald |
Targetted for 26% of Warner's passes in last 4 yrs, only 20% of
Leinart's; will get more looks with Boldin gone but Leinart is a
huge concern; |
|
Steve Smith |
36 of Moore's 138 pass attempts were to Smith in 2009 and 39 of his
111 in 2011 when the #2 and #3 WRs were weak; his arm is a slight
concern for 2010. |
|
Chad Ochocinco |
Top 15 in 6 of the last 7 yrs; Cincy should be a little more
balanced this year which will help him; wasn't great in the 2nd half
of the 2009 season. |
|
Marques Colston |
Colston had a "down year" but he was targetted on 22% of Brees's
passes just like in his first 3 yrs, Saints just passed less often;
expect a little more in 2010. |
|
Steve Smith |
His production dropped a little when both Hicks and Manningham were
healthy late in the year; played all 16 games in last 2 years. |
|
Dwayne Bowe |
Despite a disappointing season he still had 37 catches in his final
8 games; he's working harder this off-season and should bounce back;
huge upside. |
|
Michael Crabtree |
34 catches in his final 8 games and has at least 3 catches in every
game; TDs and YPC should go up; having a full training camp will
eally help him. |
|
Hines Ward |
Avged over 5 catches per game (projects to 80+ over 16 games) in 8
of the last 9 yrs; underrated every year and never disappoints -
very safe even at 34. |
|
Anquan Boldin |
Never had below 83 catches per 16 games in 7 seasons, had Warner,
Leinart, McCown and Jeff Blake at QB and 3 different coaches; new
team shouldn't affect him. |
|
Greg Jennings |
#1 WR but this offense has so many weapons that you can't expect
Jennings to have more than 70-75 catches; should have more TDs than
last year though. |
|
DeSean Jackson |
70 WRs had 50+ catches in 2 straight yrs with 17+ YPC in the first,
their YPC dropped by an avg of 13%; his rushing is accounted for in
the "Overall" column |
|
Percy Harvin |
Became a big part of this offense in the 2nd half of the year;
should continue to improve in 2010; his rushing is accounted for in
the "Overall" column; migraines are a concern. |
|
T.J. Houshmandzadeh |
At least 70 catches in 6 straight years including 79 last year with
an injured Hasselbeck and Wallace at QB; should get more TDs in
2010. |
|
Terrell Owens |
Top 10 WR in 7 of his last 10 seasons; Top 30 last year on a
horrible passing offense; has a QB who wanted him to sign with the
Bengals; he's 37 years old. |
|
Jeremy Maclin |
Targetted as many times as Jackson in the final 8 games that both
played but has a much higher catch percentage - could breakout in
his 2nd season. |
|
Mike Wallace |
Becomes #2 WR now that Holmes is gone and doesn't have much
competition; he has very similar skills to Holmes. |
|
Malcom Floyd |
9 catches for 140 yards in week 17 when Jackson was out, Davis had 5
- Rivers will find his WRs even if Vincent Jackson doesn't play. |
|
Hakeem Nicks |
Lots of hype but had fewer catches than Manningham (26 to 29) from
weeks 9 to 16; should have a good year but he's being drafted too
early in our opinion. |
|
Santana Moss |
Pretty good for 5 straight years, upgrade at QB; improved o-line;
because of McNabb's injuries, smarter to gamble with Washington WRs
than with McNabb. |
|
Mike Sims-Walker |
Only caught 27 of the 58 balls thrown his way in the final 8 games
but was playing through some injuries; showed he has top 15
potential but is a risky pick. |
|
Donald Driver |
Has 1000+ yards in 6 straight seasons and continues to fight off the
young competition; safe pick despite being 35 and usually underrated
in fantasy football. |
|
Lee Evans |
He's been a huge disappointment since breaking out in 2006; but by
far the best WR on the Bills (only one worth drafting for now);
hasn't missed a start in 6 yrs. |
|
Jabar Gaffney |
21 catches for 282 yards and TDs are his numbers in the two games
that he started last year; has caught 61% of the passes thrown his
way in his career. |
|
Johnny Knox |
About 200 passes to be split between 4 receivers - your guess is as
good as ours; Knox whould continue to improve in his 2nd season. |
|
Bernard Berrian |
Might fly under the radar this off-season but Favre likes to use all
3 of his WRs and Berrian will continue to be a big part of this
offense and will be the #2 WR for the first half of the year. |
|
Steve Breaston |
Despite the departure of Boldin, don't expect a great season from
him since this offense will be much more run-oriented than in the
past few years. |
|
Jerricho Cotchery |
44 catches in 11 games after bye week (including playoffs); 65+
catches per 16 games for 4 straight years; should still be #1 WR. |
|
Chris Chambers |
36 catches in his 9 games with KC including 19 in the 5 games with
Bowe playing; was signed to a 3-year deal worth 15M because they
plan on using him often. |
|
Devin Hester |
About 200 passes to be split between 4 receivers - your guess is as
good as ours; Martz probably has some wild plans for Hester though. |
|
Sidney Rice |
Dominant in the second half of the season; should keep it up
assuming Favre is back; likely out for the first half of the season. |
|
Josh Morgan |
28 catches in his final 6 games; respects our criteria for breakout
WRs; YPC and TDs have to go up compared to last year; him and
Crabtree are a nice duo. |
|
Mike Thomas |
29 catches in his final 8 games as a #2 / #3 WR with Torry Holt;
should take the full-time #2 job in his 2nd year; has very nice
upside. |
|
Santonio Holmes |
Moving to a more run-heavy team with 3 good receivers and will be
suspended for the first 4 games; won't come close to last year's
numbers. |
|
Deion Branch |
Branch seems to have won the #2 WR job; he caught 45 passes last
year as the #3 WR, could surprise but needs to stay healthy. |
|
Derrick Mason |
He has 9 straight seasons of 65+ catches but he's also 36 years old;
avg drop at that age is about 22% for number of catches - very
likely to happen with Boldin. |
|
Mike Williams |
Williams is locked in as the #1 guy ahead of Stroughter, Benn and
Stovall; lots of hype around him in his rookie year. |
|
Mohamed Massaquoi |
He was targetted 76 times in 12 games after Edwards was traded but
he only caught 24 of them; Delhomme should help quite a bit but
still a risky pick. |
|
Laurent Robinson |
Very talented but has played only 9 games in the past 2 years; will
be #1 WR with injury to Avery, could surprise. |
|
Devin Aromashodu |
About 200 passes to be split between 4 receivers - your guess is as
good as ours; looked great in the final 4 games and should get
plenty of opportunities. |
|
Eddie Royal |
Went from catching 70% of the passes thrown his way to only 47% last
year; could lose his starting job to rookie Demaryius Thomas if he
doesn't perform. |
|
Kevin Walter |
15% of targets in last 3 yrs when Schaub, Daniels and Walter are in
the lineup; Jacoby Jones could steal some targets. |
|
Nate Washington |
Supposed to be #1 WR in Tennessee but Washington has never caught
more than 52% of the passes thrown his way; Britt might surpass him
in 2010. |
|
Kenny Britt |
Had a pretty good rookie year; should steal some of Gage's
receptions in 2009; he is still on a run-first team and you can't
expect anything spectacular; has been kind of a mystery so far. |
|
Vincent Jackson |
Stay away from him until this situation resolves itself; Chargers
will be just fine without him, they need McNeill though. |
|
Mario Manningham |
It's surprising that a guy who had 57 catches in 14 games in his 2nd
year is flying under the radar; 29 catches in last 7 even while
splitting with Nicks. |
|
Louis Murphy |
Murphy could be moving into the #1 spot with the injury to Schilens;
has been impressive so far so is worth keeping your eye on. |
|
Braylon Edwards |
He hasn't done much in his NFL career other than in 2007; only 41
catches in his 15 games (including playoffs) with the Jets. |
|
Pierre Garcon |
Battle is wide open for the #2 and #3 spots in Indy. For now we
expect Garcon, Gonzalez and Collie to have 30-40 receptions each |
|
Brian Hartline |
Will be #2 WR behind Marshall but won't have much fantasy impact. |
|
Nate Burleson |
Hard to predict how many looks he'll get but last year #2 and #3 WRs
combined for 70 catches, he should catch a good portion of those. |
|
Legedu Naanee |
His value would go way up if Jackson gets traded or holds out for
most of the year. |
|
Devin Thomas |
We though he had a real opportunity to breakout in 2010 but he
hasn't done much in camp; not sure what to think of him at this
point. |
|
Demaryius Thomas |
We're not usually fans of rookie WRs but someone has to catch passes
in this offense; could move up depending on how he does in training
camp; injury a small concern. |
|
Roy Williams |
Wasn't much of a factor last year and will have to battle Bryant for
the #2 job this year; nice target in red zone. |
|
Michael Jenkins |
Goes under the radar every year; has 3 straight seasons of 50+
catches; has missed only 4 games in 6 yrs; his #2 WR job is safe;
will get a few pts every week; questionnable for week 1. |
|
Brian Robiskie |
Robiskie will likely be the #2 WR ahead of Stuckey and could
surprise; the loser (likely Stuckey) won't see much action because
Cribbs will be on the field very often as well. |
|
Robert Meachem |
About 105 receptions to split between Meachem, Henderson and Moore;
too early to tell who will get them and wouldn't be surprising if
they were all close. |
|
Chaz Schilens |
29 catches in final 8 games; big upgrade at QB; his knee is a big
concern at this point. |
|
Devery Henderson |
About 105 receptions to split between Meachem, Henderson and Moore;
too early to tell who will get them and wouldn't be surprising if
they were all close. |
|
Dexter McCluster |
Chiefs will find a way to get him the ball in a number of different
ways but we don't see him having much of a fantasy impact in his
rookie year. |
|
Jacoby Jones |
Could have a bigger role this year; 19 catches in final 6 games last
year but Daniels was hurt; we still see him as a #3 behind Walter. |
|
James Jones |
Likely won't crack 50 receptions until Driver retires but is a
decent backup WR; very good offense and could be huge if one of the
top two get hurt; still competing with Nelson for #3 job. |
|
Antwaan Randle El |
Should have a similar role as he did in his first 4 years with
Pittsburgh; behind Ward and Wallace on the depth chart. |
|
Brandon LaFell |
Either Jarrett or LaFell will win the #2 job and the winner could be
a nice sleeper as the #2 WR in this offense. |
|
Josh Cribbs |
The Browns will look to get Cribbs the ball as often as possible and
a lot of that will be in the running game; has more value in
non-PPR. |
|
Lance Moore |
About 105 receptions to split between Meachem, Henderson and Moore;
too early to tell who will get them and wouldn't be surprising if
they were all close. |
|
Arrelious Benn |
Benn, Stovall and Stroughter will all fight for the #2 and #3 jobs
but we don't think any of them will have much fantasy impact. |
|
Dez Bryant |
Will probably begin the year as the #3 WR in Dallas (#4 if you count
Witten); won't do much tis year but should start in 2011; could
surprise us though. |
|
Earl Bennett |
About 200 passes to be split between 4 receivers - your guess is as
good as ours; |
|
Darrius Heyward-Bey |
Murphy and Heyward-Bey are batting for the #2 job but even the
winner shouldn't have much fantasy impact. |
|
Davone Bess |
Will be the #3 WR in this offense. His situation is a little better
now that Camarillo has been traded but still won't have much fatasy
impact |
|
Early Doucet |
Will get a lot more looks than in the past 2 yrs since he'll be #3
instead of #4 but still not enough to make him useful in fantasy
football. |
|
Dwayne Jarrett |
Either Jarrett or LaFell will win the #2 job and the winner could be
a nice sleeper as the #2 WR in this offense. |
|
Anthony Gonzalez |
Battle is wide open for the #2 and #3 spots in Indy. For now we
expect Garcon, Gonzalez and Collie to have 30-40 receptions each |
|
Austin Collie |
Battle is wide open for the #2 and #3 spots in Indy. For now we
expect Garcon, Gonzalez and Collie to have 30-40 receptions each |
|
Sammie Stroughter |
Benn, Stovall and Stroughter will all fight for the #2 and #3 jobs
but we don't think any of them will have much fantasy impact. |
|
Greg Camarillo |
Will have a decent first half as the #3 WR but as soon as Rice comes
back, he'll be out of the picture. |
|
Jason Avant |
He has really fallen behind Jackson and Maclin on the depth chart;
his looks will continue to be limited with the emergence of Celek at
TE. |
|
Julian Edelman |
Looked great with Welker out but he had only 16 catches in 8 games
with Welker and Moss in; projections are based on Welker being
healthy for week 1. |
