Of course, we’ll have to see what happens now that Jay Gruden is the new offensive coordinator but there’s upside to be had in Gruden’s offense as well. That’s plenty affordable enough since Westbrook played a specific role last season lining up in the slot on 83.5% of his snaps. However, for 2020, his current ADP is in the 18th-round (213.8). Westbrook’s ceiling is likely capped and most know it so he’s an explore trade candidate in dynasty but likely a hold. Westbrook is an average-at-best athlete and Jacksonville just brought in two more WRs in the draft: Laviska Shenault in the second-round and Collin Johnson in the fifth-round. Love the show?

Then came 2019, where Westbrook was fully expected to take another leap by rising to the top of a wide-open WR depth chart. And in 2018, Westbrook took the next step, catching 66 passes for 717 yards and five TDs. He ranks 12th on this entire list after posting 339 receiving yards in only seven games as a rookie due to injury. Kupp is once again set up to smash in 2020, making his late fourth-round (47.3) ADP palatable.Įxcitement surrounded Westbrook as he entered the league after he posted 1,524 receiving yards and 17 TDs as a Senior at Oklahoma.

Kupp did only play 19 snaps in Week 14 against Seattle but that was the only game all season where Kupp’s playing time was significantly affected. The “limited playing time down the stretch” narrative has largely been overblown. Last season Kupp averaged 72.6 yards per game by catching 94 passes for 1,161 yards and 10 TDs. He followed that up by getting even better in 2019. Before injury in 2018, Kupp was wrecking, averaging 70.8 yards per game over the first half of the season. Kupp ranks fourth on this list and his production has only increased since. Buy JuJu all day at his fourth-round (41.2) ADP. Last season’s 552 receiving yards can largely be attributed to injuries and poor QB play. We not only know JuJu is good, but that he’s one of the best WRs in the NFL. He followed this up with a sophomore campaign of 1,426 yards. JuJu ranks third on this list and he did it at 21 years of age. And some notable players that didn’t make the 20 receiving yards per game cut will also be addressed. I’ll discuss trends and how I see values heading into 2020 (All ADPs were gathered from FFPC Best Ball Classic drafts over the past two weeks).

I’ll evaluate notable players from all three years separately, starting with 2017. All players that hit at least 20 yards per game are listed in the below table. In a three-part series, I will be comparing all first-year players over the past three seasons in receiving yards per game. because they allow us to better project and predict career breakout seasons. I believe these kinds of exercises can help us grow as fantasy players of all formats – redraft, best ball, DFS, etc. But I’m not just doing this to try to improve as a dynasty player.

As I immerse myself deeper and deeper into dynasty leagues, I find myself evaluating fantasy football from a bigger picture point of view.
