Stevenson is going to put up a lot of fantasy points this year. Anyone who thought the rookie was going to come in and take over the starting role just hasn’t been paying attention.

This one is interesting as well. JCM listed as 4th on depth chart.

I think the usage in the last preseason game speaks more to JCM's spot on the depth chart than this. Might just be a smoke screen.

I get people want him to be a thing. But Daniels is the #1 RB on that team and they have way too many RBs for anyone else to actually do anything significant.

Stay away from them at all costs.

Every year week 1 depth charts are pretty bogus.

The depth chart for the Chargers has “Najee Harris or Omarion Hampton” as starting RB

I grabbed Warren in both of my Redrafts. Even took him way above ADP as my RB3 in the one I just did because I was picking out of the 2 spot and wasn't sure he'd make it back. I think he's going to be the steal of the draft based on ADP.


Been saying this all preseason. I own more shares of Warren this year than any other player due to ADP. He is faster than Kaleb and has the experience. Kaleb's primary problem is that he is a bigger back, but he tends to avoid contact, playing more like a smaller back. Unfortunately, he doesn't have the acceleration nor top-end speed for his playing style. I honestly don't think he will ever be a starter in the NFL, but what the hell do I know?

20 -- Xavier Worthy averaged just over 20 FPPG in his final six games, including the playoffs. With Rashee Rice out for the first six games, we will get a chance to see if he can maintain that.

10.3 -- Jerry Jeudy averaged 10.3 targets per game in his final 10 games. That was with Jameis Winston and without Cedric Tillman. 

13.4 -- Marvin Harrison's 13.4 yards average depth of target was part of the problem as a rookie. Let's hope there are a few more layups drawn up for him in Week 1. 

6.9 -- Garrett Wilson has only averaged 6.9 yards per target in his career. If that doesn't increase he is no more than a WR3 because Justin Fields means an offense with far fewer pass attempts.

8.5% -- Amon-Ra St. Brown had a career-high 8.5% TD rate last year. If the Detroit Lions scoring regresses, as I expect, he can still be a top 12 wide receiver but he won't likely be top five.

2.5 -- Deebo Samuel has averaged at least 2.5 carries per game each of the last four seasons. Week 1 will help us understand if Washington plans on using him as a rusher as well.

27.2% -- Both Puka Nacua and Davante Adams were targeted on more than 27% of their routes last year. It will be fascinating to see how Matthew Stafford distributes the ball in Week 1.

174.8 -- The Jacksonville Jaguars gave up 174 yards per game to wide receivers, it could be a big Week 1 for McMillan.

11 -- The Denver Broncos only gave up 11 touchdowns to wide receivers all year last year, don't expect a score from Calvin Ridley.

16.2 -- Cooper Kupp was averaging over 16 FPPG through Week 14 last year. if he's fully healthy, he could be good early in the year.

The end around on the first play against the Bengals showed me that it is at least in their offense.

Got him in one and was targeting in another and someone reached for him a round sooner. Still pissed I didn’t reach for him.

Another pre-Sunday deal: the 49ers and Jauan Jennings reached agreement on a deal that will add $3 million in play-time incentives to the wide receiver’s contract, per his agents Drew and Jason Rosenhaus. Now, instead of earning $7.5 million this season, Jennings can earn up to $10.5 million.

Agreed, I’ve seen people draft Bill as their RB2, I think that’s insanity with how many of the rushing attempts will go to JD, Eckler, and even Rodriguez in short yardage.

ETA: not to mention some Deebo carries sprinkled in

I like this a lot

Jennings was cooking at times. If anything, this helps Kittle out too.
