|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | ||
QB | Lamar Jackson Bal - QB
| 25.15 | 98% (+98) | 1 | Lamar Jackson had a 112.7 passer rating in the red zone last season (Rank: best in NFL among QBs). The Browns allowed an average opposing passer rating of 106.5 in the red zone over the same timeframe (Rank: 2nd worst). | ||||
WR | Mike Evans TB - WR
| 11.86 | 38% (+38) | 84 | Only two teams averaged more points than Tampa Bay and New Orleans in 2019, so Mike Evans could post big numbers in Week 1 against a Saints defense that allowed the seventh-most receiving yards per game last year. | ||||
WR | A.J. Green Cin - WR
| 10.61 | 34% (+34) | 101 | A.J. Green was unable to take the field for the Bengals in 2019 and will return Week 1 against a Chargers defense that allowed the fifth-fewest passing yards in the league last season with just 200.3. | ||||
WR | Mike Williams LAC - WR
| 8.61 | 3% (+3) | 153 | Mike Williams had 17 receptions of 20+ yards last season (Rank: tied for 10th most in NFL among WRs). The Bengals allowed 51 receptions of 20+ yards to WRs over the same timeframe (Rank: most). | ||||
RB | Le'Veon Bell KC - RB
| 11.81 | 71% (+71) | 86 | Le'Veon Bell had 66 receptions last season (Rank: 7th most in NFL among RBs). The Bills allowed 87.0 receptions to RBs over the same timeframe (Rank: 11th most). | ||||
RB | David Johnson Hou - RB
| 13.45 | 80% (+80) | 57 | David Johnson was brought to Houston in the offseason by coach/GM Bill O'Brien in the deal that sent DeAndre Hopkins to Arizona, and coach O'Brien will surely do his best to make GM O'Brien look good by giving Johnson a heavy Week 1 workload against the Chiefs. | ||||
TE | Jared Cook NO - TE
| 8.61 | 70% (+70) | 154 | Jared Cook has 12 receptions of 20+ yards over his past eight games (Rank: most in NFL among TEs). The Buccaneers have allowed 2 receptions of 20+ yards to TEs over the same timeframe (Rank: tied for 2nd fewest). | ||||
W/R/T | Chase Edmonds Ari - RB
| 3.13 | 3% (+3) | 318 | Chase Edmonds and the Cardinals will square off in Week 1 against the 49ers, who allowed the 10th-fewest fantasy points to RBs in 2019, and he'll likely see change-of-pace duties behind Kenyan Drake, making him a risky fantasy option. | ||||
BN | Courtland Sutton Den - WR
| 0.00 | 18% (+18) | 788 | Officially listed on Injured Reserve list. | ||||
BN | Michael Thomas NO - WR
| 17.53 | 97% (+97) | 28 | Michael Thomas averaged 14.1 fantasy points per game last season (Rank: best in NFL among WRs). The Buccaneers allowed an average of 28.3 fantasy points per game to WRs over that same stretch (Rank: worst). | ||||
BN | Leonard Fournette TB - RB
| 6.78 | 19% (+19) | 221 | Leonard Fournette has 48 receptions over his past eight games (Rank: tied for 2nd most in NFL among RBs). The Colts have allowed 62.0 receptions to RBs over that same stretch (Rank: most). | ||||
BN | Christian Kirk Ari - WR
| 9.48 | 7% (+7) | 122 | Christian Kirk averaged just 7.6 fantasy points per game last season (Rank: tied for 29th worst in NFL among WRs). The 49ers allowed an average of just 20.3 fantasy points per game to WRs over the same timeframe (Rank: 13th best). | ||||
BN | Tevin Coleman SF - RB
| 7.84 | 3% (+3) | 185 | Tevin Coleman has averaged just 44.8 rushing yards per game since the start of the 2018 season (Rank: 8th worst in NFL among RBs). The Cardinals have allowed an average of just 116.8 rushing yards per game to RBs over the same timeframe (Rank: 2nd worst). | ||||
BN | Duke Johnson Hou - RB
| 7.08 | 2% (+2) | 211 | Duke Johnson has averaged just 6.7 touches per game (214/32) since the start of the 2018 season (Rank: 18th lowest in NFL among RBs). The Chiefs have allowed an average of just 5.8 yards from scrimmage per touch to RBs over that same stretch (Rank: worst). | ||||
BN | Chris Herndon NYJ - TE
| 8.70 | 8% (+8) | 148 | Chris Herndon looks healthy after recording just a single catch in 2019 for the Jets and should prove to be a key receiving option for Sam Darnold; however, he faces a tough matchup against the Bills' top-three defense against opposing tight ends in Week 1. | ||||
BN | DeSean Jackson Phi - WR
| 10.72 | 23% (+23) | 99 | DeSean Jackson is the undisputed No. 1 wideout for the Eagles heading into Week 1 versus Washington, and has the chance to make some big plays against a suspect defense that allowed 35 passing scores in 2019, which was 30th in the NFL. | ||||
BN | Ian Thomas Car - TE
| 7.81 | 1% (+1) | 187 | If Ian Thomas isn't hampered by his toe injury, he has an appealing matchup in Week 1 as the Panthers face a Raiders defense that allowed the 11th-highest completion percentage (64.1) and the third-most touchdowns to tight ends (nine) in 2019. | ||||
BN | Matthew Stafford Det - QB
| 18.22 | 31% (+31) | 17 | Matthew Stafford produced six multi-touchdown games in eight tries for the Lions in 2019 before succumbing to injury, and while a potentially improving run game could result in less volume, it could help make Stafford even more efficient entering a Week 1 matchup against a Bears defense that allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards last season. | ||||
