Fantasy Football Risers:
Kirk Cousins (MIN)
The largest riser inwards the fantasy football game globe from the costless agent puddle is quondam Redskin quarterback Kirk Cousins. Signing his extremely lucrative deal, Kirk volition last the response inwards Minnesota for at to the lowest degree the side past times side 3 seasons. Finishing 7th inwards the NFL inwards hand yards (4093), together with 8th inwards touchdown passes (27), fully facial expression those numbers to climb throwing to a cast of characters that dwarf nearly of the Redskins receiving core. Kirk volition relish playing behind a solid offensive line, a productive running game, together with having a laid of hand catches that tin bail him out of missed throws together with inaccurate passes. Since becoming the starter inwards Washington, Cousins has never seen a flavor nether 4000 passing yards together with 25 touchdown passes, fairly impressive amongst what he had to operate with. Minnesota is a definite upgrade together with Kirk should reap the benefits. It’s rattling possible nosotros encounter Kirk flirt amongst the perhaps of reaching the 5000 yard grade together with 32-35 touchdowns.
Drew Brees (NWO)
Coming downward to the wire, the New Orleans Saints were able to re-up their quarterback on a ii twelvemonth contract extension that should encounter Brees retire every bit a Saint. Coming off his worst flavor statistically since his 2005 San Diego Charger days, the Saints offensive organisation was dictated toward the run game rather than the pass. Throwing his lowest storey of touchdowns (23) since the 2003 season, it mightiness last drive for concern. ADF isn’t wavering on the swell Drew Brees exactly yet. Still producing a fantastic 72% completion pct from 2017, the law-breaking lacked large play execution through the air, every bit bulk was given to the running backs on curt hand plays together with runs - inwards redzone opportunities. Brees should better his touchdown grade from final flavor every bit they facial expression to add together receiver depth to aid the law-breaking larn dorsum to its explosive ways.
Jimmy Graham (GB)
While Jimmy Graham was tied for minute inwards the NFL inwards touchdown receptions (10), he definitely saw a downward twelvemonth inwards receptions together with yardage. Playing inwards a Seahawk law-breaking that saw its portion of issues, Graham became an afterthought exterior of the redzone. Saving many of his fantasy days on belatedly game touchdowns on minimal targets, it’s no wonder the fantasy populace became frustrated amongst the storey of production. Going to Green Bay looks to last a massive win for the star tight goal entering his 9th flavor inwards the NFL. Looking to take hold shed the trouble concern of his gruesome human knee injury, Jimmy may take hold lost a measuring but withal possesses massive upside playing amongst the swell Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay hasn’t had a talent at the seat since Jermichael Finley, together with Rodgers would welcome Jimmy amongst opened upwards arms. Even amongst a multitude of mouths to feed on this offense, it’s non out of the query to encounter Graham uncovering a fundamental purpose together with make numbers that nosotros in ane lawsuit witnessed. It’s non out of the query to encounter 65-70 receptions for 800 yards together with 8-10 touchdowns for Jimmy inwards 2018.
Sammy Watkins (KC)
Sammy is definitely an enigma inwards price of value together with placement for the upcoming fantasy season. The hype his cry together with draft selection carries, allowed him to convince the Chiefs to offering a large bargain that ADF believes was far likewise grand for the production we’ve seen. ADF is withal a believer inwards the talent Watkins possesses, but hasn’t been able to sustain success due to injuries together with inconsistent play. Moving to an law-breaking that bod’s ample talent (much similar the Rams), the large trouble concern that he’ll in ane lawsuit to a greater extent than last lost inwards the shuffle losing targets to Hill, Kelce, together with Hunt is a rattling existent possibility. Drafting Sammy at this indicate comes amongst a large query grade but withal contains a rattling high upside. Patrick Mahomes should last ane of the biggest sleeper prospects for the 2018 fantasy flavor amongst his cannon arm together with having the powerfulness to feed all his targets amongst regularity, which could aid Watkins larn dorsum on the map. Seeing unmarried coverage all flavor is some other make goodness that Sammy should relish every bit Tyreek Hill’s speed volition in ane lawsuit to a greater extent than depict security aid leaving Sammy the potential benefactor. Drafting Sammy inwards the afterward rounds could hand a fantasy score every bit the flavor moves on, but we’ve also said that before.
Jerick McKinnon (SF)
Always beingness a fan of the speed Jerick McKinnon was gifted with; ADF loves the motion he made to bring together forces amongst immature pin Jimmy Garoppolo together with the 49ers. The volume has been written on McKinnon every bit he’s already shown what type of runner he is, together with drafting him every bit a top producer on the Earth (in criterion leagues) volition larn out you lot frustrated together with looking to cutting bait every bit the one-half agency indicate of the twelvemonth comes to pass. Jerick is a specialty runner that has particular hands together with tin brand waves inwards the hand game, (great for PPR leagues). He has never been able to make character betwixt the tackles every bit his kickoff alternative is to utilisation his speed together with bounce runs outside. An to a higher identify average blocker on blitz pickups should allow ample playing fourth dimension for the speedster to last rattling effective inwards staying on the field. McKinnon is a for sure riser inwards PPR formats but should last a minute idea inwards criterion leagues.
Trey Burton (CHI)
Burton has been on the ADF radar for ii seasons at nowadays but has been buried behind Zach Ertz together with Brent Celek for his entire career. Showing his swell science inwards relief roles final flavor inwards Philadelphia gave him the powerfulness to pause costless on the opened upwards marketplace together with have a payday conducive to his potential. Moving to Chicago to aid cast a rebuilt offensive unit of measurement was the best possible final result for his potential success inwards 2018. Like nearly immature quarterbacks looking to improve, Mitchell Trubisky volition make goodness the nearly inwards having a reliable tight goal together with primary banking concern check downward target to aid take hold push clit per unit of measurement area off together with encompass upwards his mistakes. Having a fundamental security blanket volition allow Trubisky to gain confidence every bit bailing early on amongst his on champaign progressions should withal equate to on champaign success amongst Trey making upwards for his inadequacies. Even amongst the additions of Allen Robinson together with Tyler Gabriel to cast a potential speedy mismatching receiving core, Burton volition last a steady target puller from the immature franchise quarterback. The upside for Burton volition definitely reside to a greater extent than inwards PPR formats, but the potential is off the charts inwards Chicago.
Allen Robinson (CHI)
When word broke of Allen Robinson moving his talents to the windy city, it came every bit quite a shocker to us hither at ADF. But every bit full general managing director Ryan Pace continued his keen wishing to upgrade the law-breaking exactly about Trubisky, things began to brand to a greater extent than sense. Robinson is a risky draft pick inwards the higher rounds every bit coming off a flavor ending ACL tear, together with entering a novel offensive organisation amongst a immature pin throwing him the ball, nosotros could encounter sporadic production to the midway indicate of the season. Robinson has proven he tin make at high levels inwards this league, but volition last 3 years removed from his fantastic career flavor from 2015, amongst a massive injury rehab to fence with. As Trubisky continues to develop, Robinson should benefit, but nosotros caution using anything higher than a 5th or 6th circular selection (in redraft leagues) every bit his kickoff twelvemonth inwards Chicago mightiness non last all it’s cracked upwards to be. It’s hard to envision a 1000 yard flavor inwards twelvemonth ane amongst the Bears. As of today, WR 3-4 is a skillful ranking for Robinson.
Dion Lewis (TEN)
Dion Lewis to the Tennessee Titans is a rattling interesting motion to tell the least. Concluding his nearly productive flavor inwards the NFL, Lewis saw 212 touches (180 rush, 32 rec) hand for 1110 total yards from scrimmage (896 rush, 214 rec), inwards a Patriots dorsum champaign which employs many runners. Moving to a much cleaner province of affairs inwards price of depth, Lewis volition create a tandem amongst Derek Henry manning the dorsum champaign for the Titans inwards 2018. Dion has greatly improved his running powerfulness over the years, making feasible strides to run betwixt the tackles spell continuing to last a swell target inwards the hand game. It’s hard to envision the usage rotation betwixt Henry together with Lewis at this point, but, both backs should last used a swell bargain to aid take push clit per unit of measurement area from Marcus Mariota. Derek Henry is a volume runner that punishes defenders together with excels inwards the latter portions of games benefiting from that before punishment. Lewis should last able to uncovering his niche inwards this law-breaking every bit a alter of measuring dorsum providing sufficient yardage inwards both the Earth together with passing games. He should take hold a clear purpose on 3rd downs making his appeal greater inwards PPR formats to start. It’s non out of the query to encounter Lewis bag carries every bit the flavor goes on creating to a greater extent than chance for production. Lewis has swell upside to last a flex starter on a weekly basis.
Fantasy Football Mid-Level:
Paul Richardson (WAS)
ADF firmly disagrees amongst the coin Richardson was given from the Redskins every bit his production is greatly inwards query amongst Alex Smith throwing him the ball. Richardson could encounter an increase inwards targets together with receptions this year, but ADF firmly puts Richardson every bit a matchup instrumentalist every bit of today.
Jordy Nelson (OAK)
Green Bay chose to motion on from the career Packer sending him to the opened upwards marketplace where the Raiders scooped him upwards every bit fast every bit he was cut. Moving on to Oakland together with having Derek Carr throwing him the ball should equate to success, but nix similar we’ve hand accustomed to inwards the past. Jordy should hand a rattling skillful secondary receiver amongst high touchdown potential much similar Crabtree produced inwards his fourth dimension inwards the bay area.
Isaiah Crowell (NYJ)
ADF has never been a fan of Isaiah Crowell together with his express skillset, but has the chance to alter our minds inwards moving to the Big-Apple. The Jets law-breaking shouldn’t better that much every bit it currently stands, but Crowell should larn kickoff scissure at leading the backfield inwards carries. Buyer-beware for Crowell, facial expression similar production amongst a small-scale uptick of potential.
Jarvis Landry (CLE) / Tyrod Taylor (CLE)*
Honorable cry goes to Tyrod Taylor together with Jarvis Landry who were acquired via merchandise together with non the costless agent market. Both players take hold an chance amongst the Browns to produce, but ane should take hold to a greater extent than of a feasible shot to better his numbers than the other. Taylor would definitely have an uptick spell Landry volition encounter his arrow pointing downward inwards price of fantasy potential production. Jarvis was the mainstay inwards Miami’s offensive system loading upwards on targets together with receptions, spell inwards Cleveland he volition hand ane of many options Taylor volition distribute the ball too. In price of Tyrod Taylor, this volition last the best receiving heart together with someone he’s played amongst every bit a starter, but the trouble concern remains on his inability to throw accurate passes over the middle amongst confidence. Potential is high for production, but beware over drafting both these players inwards 2018.
Fantasy Football Drop-Off:
Teddy Bridgewater (NYJ) / Josh McCown (NYJ)
As the rebuild continues inwards New York, settling for secondary options after losing out on Kirk Cousins, whoever wins the undertaking should alone make plenty to equate every bit bye-week starters together with matchup players. Both are trending downward.
Sam Bradford (ARZ)
With newspaper sparse knees together with the potential inability to remain on the champaign amongst yet some other subpar offensive line, Bradford shouldn’t muster much to a greater extent than than we’ve already witnessed - buyer-beware.
Carlos Hyde (CLE)
Carlos Hyde received rattling piddling involvement on the opened upwards marketplace together with settled on signing amongst the Browns knowing the potential to play behind super-rookie Saquon Barkley exists. If the Browns indeed draft Barkley, Hyde volition take hold rattling depression value together with would alone last a feasible hand-cuff player. If the Browns elect to hand a dissimilar direction together with non select Barkley, Hyde’s value would straightaway larn a massive uptick.
Donte Moncrief (JAX)
While never beingness able to make anything of swell value, Moncrief has moved to Jacksonville to play on a team amongst far to a greater extent than receiving talent to fence amongst together with a major downgrade at the quarterback position. ADF is selling on Moncrief every bit we’ve been fooled before together with won’t hand back. Extremely belatedly draft value for the production he’ll give you.
Danny Amendola (MIA)
Perhaps having plenty of the New England agency together with seeing an chance to cash inwards on final season’s success, Amendola volition last the novel slot receiver inwards Miami. The potential exists for targets to come upwards his way, but should last nix to a greater extent than than a bench-stash when the flavor opens. High adventure of injury ever follows Danny. PPR formats alone for Amendola yet again.
John Brown (BAL)
Even though Brown has globe degree speed, his injury history together with medical concerns hold him off ADF’s radar going into the 2018 season. Brown screams costless agent undrafted instrumentalist going into the fantasy football game drafts.
Doug Martin (OAK)
Failing to make inwards Tampa Bay allowed the Bus to motion on together with spotter him Earth inwards Oakland to cast a tandem amongst the aging Marshawn Lynch. Expectations are extremely depression for high-end production from the Muscle-Hamster but looks the purpose of beingness a bench stash together with a handcuff player.
Fantasy Football Potential:
Austin Seferian-Jenkins (JAX)
With Seferian-Jenkins choosing to motion dorsum to the Earth of Florida, this fourth dimension signing amongst the Jaguars, the outlook has swell potential for him to last a producer at the tight goal position. With a run heavy offensive scheme, ASJ volition require to better his blocking powerfulness to remain on the champaign together with bag the purpose on run plays from Mercedes Lewis to fulfill that high ceiling. Austin should encounter plenty of redzone targets to inflate his fantasy outlook which at this indicate is rattling uncertain. Having a backup innovation if drafting Seferian-Jenkins should last the road taken until proven otherwise.
Tyler Gabriel (CHI)
The speedy slot receiver, who placed his talents dorsum on the map inwards Atlanta, proved he was a feasible weapon when given the opportunity. Having the clear Pb to take hold on slot duties inwards Chicago, Gabriel could human activity much similar tight goal Tyler Burton every bit a potential security blanket for the immature Mitchell Trubisky. If the Bears immature pin exceeds his progression early, Gabriel could uncovering himself every bit a depression goal flex starter matchup instrumentalist every bit the flavor wears on.
Case Keenum (DEN)
While ADF believes Keenum was a production of his environs final twelvemonth amongst the Vikings, he could grip decent value inwards a Broncos law-breaking that houses skillful receiving talent. The major trouble concern is the condition of Denver’s offensive describe together with what that volition make to Keenum’s on filed progressions. Benefiting from a solid run game together with swell protection inwards Minnesota is something that won’t last replicated amongst the Broncos. Keenum is a deep league - belatedly circular draft pick together with bench stash at best.
AJ McCarron (BUF)
The Buffalo Bills reached together with signed frustrated career backup AJ McCarron to create total the demand at quarterback amongst alone ane alternative on the roster. While in that location are no expectations for McCarron at this point, ADF does purchase into the notion that the potential does be to grip McCarron inwards deep keepers together with Dynasty leagues, exactly because the express record on the immature thrower. Realistically for redraft, AJ has to win the starting purpose together with exhibit swell levels of production to warrant whatever consideration for a roster spot. He volition remain un-draft-able together with potentially a wavier target every bit production dictates, if any.
