QUARTERBACKS


PlayerAtt.Comp.YardsTDINTRushYardsTDPoints
Tua Tagovailoa360.9224.72544.316.069.9233.7138.21.01166.05
While a redshirt season may make sense given his injury history, head coach Brian Flores has said that there will be a competition at quarterback and hasn't ruled out Tagovailoa from starting as early as Week 1. Given the lack of preseason games, however, it would make sense for Fitzpatrick to be (at least) the early-season starter.
Ryan Fitzpatrick216.5134.61537.29.536.520.290.90.86100.86
Reunited with offensive coordinator Chan Gailey, Fitzpatrick was the QB18, QB12 and QB20, respectively, in the three years (2010-12) the duo spent together in Buffalo. That said, it's possible that Miami hands the keys of the franchise to fifth-pick Tua Tagovailoa sooner rather than later.

RUNNING BACKS


PlayerAtt.YardsTDRec.YardsTDPoints
Matt Breida121.5552.82.4348.2407.32.53125.77
Breida was the odd-man out in San Francisco's backfield down the stretch and he moves to a situation where he has a legitimate shot to lead Miami's backfield in usage and production. The former UDFA has averaged 5.0 yards per carry and 8.4 yards per reception over his first three NFL seasons. While Miami had the league's worst offensive line last year, they made numerous investments -- via the draft and free agency -- to upgrade the unit.
Jordan Howard173.6720.45.8217.4124.40.35121.5
A shoulder injury cut Howard's lone season in Philly short, but he is healthy now. While he won't make much of an impact in the passing game, Howard is an early-down complement to Breida that should also lead the team in carries and rushing touchdowns.
Patrick Laird13.550.60.2415.4129.40.6923.58
It will take an injury to either Howard and/or Breida for Laird to become fantasy-relevant in 2020, but he offers some ability as a receiver out of the backfield (23/204/1, 8.9 Y/R in 2019).

WIDE RECEIVERS


PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
DeVante Parker72.91042.56.01000140.31
It was the unconvential fifth-year breakout for Parker, who shattered previous career highs with 72 catches on 128 targets for 1,202 yards and nine touchdowns. Over the final eight games with UDFA Preston Williams sidelined, Parker was at his best -- 44/802/5 on 76 targets in eight games without Williams; 28/400/4 on 52 targets with him. Given the opt outs of the 2020 NFL season by Albert Wilson and Allen Hurns, the duo of Parker and Williams may see an even larger target share with Wilson and Hurns sitting 2020 out.
Preston Williams62.9833.45.35000115.44
The Dolphins made a number of roster improvements through free agency and the draft, but there were no significant additions in terms of pass-catchers. In fact, the group is worse off with Wilson and Hurns opting out. More talented (four-star high school recruit) than his UDFA status (due to off-field reasons) would imply, Williams made an immediate impact for the Dolphins with 32/428/3 in eight games before tearing his ACL. After observing training camp practices open to reporters, Adam Beasley from the Miami Herald wrote that Williams may be "potentially better than ever."
Chester Rogers23.1255.31.0400031.77
Jakeem Grant14.5177.61.053.910.90.125.75

TIGHT ENDS


PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
Mike Gesicki57.2637.85.1500094.68
Gesicki is athletic freak -- 4.54 forty and 41.5" vertical -- at tight end and he had a breakout second season, aided by additional opportunities with the season-ending injury to UDFA receiver Preston Williams. Gesicki had five-plus targets in all eight games without Williams but only five-plus in just three of eight with him. More big slot than tight end, Gesicki finished his sophomore campaign as fantasy's TE11. Especially considering the team's WR3/WR4 are sitting 2020 out, Gesicki has the potential to take another significant step forward in year three.

2018 Fantasy Football WR Waiver-Wire Options Heading Into Week 7

Every week, we examine players that may be available on your league's waiver wire that could help your team in the short and/or long term.

For a player to be listed, he must be owned in 50 percent (or less) of Yahoo! leagues. The goal is to provide recommendations of players that have a greater chance of being available on your league's waiver wire. Of course, your league's size and settings could significantly impact whether these players (or better options) are available in your particular league(s).

Embed from Getty Images

With that said, here are some wide receiver waiver-wire options that I like heading into Week 7 (Yahoo! ownership in parenthesis):

[Note: Players listed below are sorted by my preference to add.]

1. Chris Godwin, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (44 percent)

Scoring in all but one game this season, Godwin posted a 6/56/1 line on nine targets in Week 6. The second-year receiver has at least 5/50/1 in three of his past four games. While he's fourth on the team in yards, Godwin leads the team in touchdown receptions (four) and is tied with DeSean Jackson for second in both targets (31) and receptions (21).

2. Taylor Gabriel, Chicago Bears (22 percent)

Gabriel has five-plus receptions in four of five games and the exception is a four-catch performance in Week 2. While the yardage totals in the first three games were minimal (89 combined), Gabriel now has back-to-back 100-yard games. Obviously, he won't go over 100 yards every week, but the Bears have a tough matchup against the Patriots in Week 7 that could lead to a higher volume of pass attempts than usual.

3. Christian Kirk, Arizona Cardinals (14 percent)

The hometown kid had another productive outing with 6/77 on seven targets in Week 6 against the Vikings and he now has more than 75 yards and/or a touchdown in three of his past four games. Only Larry Fitzgerald (35) has more targets than Kirk (31) this season, but the rookie receiver leads the team in both receptions (25) and yards (311). As we move into the heart of bye season, Kirk will be in the WR3/flex conversation going forward.

4. Chester Rogers, Indianapolis Colts (16 percent)

Perhaps Davante Adams will join the list after Monday Night Football, but here is the full list of receivers with double-digit targets all three games from Weeks 4 to 6 -- Adam Thielen, Odell Beckham and Rogers. Yes, Chester Rogers. Rogers had just four catches for 55 yards, but he did score a touchdown in Week 6 and he has a total of 20 catches for 206 yards and a touchdown over the past three weeks.

It's unclear if T.Y. Hilton will return in Week 7, but the Colts could be without Hilton, Ryan Grant and Jack Doyle in Week 7. If so, Rogers may extend his 10-target streak to four games.

5. D.J. Moore, Carolina Panthers (17 percent)

Moore lost two fumbles on Sunday, but he had four catches for 59 yards on five targets, all of which either set or tied season highs. The first rookie receiver selected in this year's draft had a relatively quiet start before the team's Week 4 bye, but the increased usage is encouraging.

6. Willie Snead, Baltimore Ravens (9 percent)

Most of the attention has been given to Michael Crabtree and John Brown, but Snead is quietly having a productive season as the team's No. 3 receiver and worth a look in deeper PPR leagues. Snead set season highs in Week 6 with 10 targets, seven catches and 60 yards, but he only has one touchdown (Week 1) on the year.

That said, he has 54-plus yards or a touchdown in all but one game this season. Facing his former team in Week 7, Snead and the Ravens receivers get a Saints defense that has allowed most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this year.

7. Albert Wilson, Miami Dolphins (10 percent)

Wilson had a monster game -- six catches for 155 yards and two touchdowns on nine targets -- in the team's Week 6 win over the Bears. Scoring in half of Miami's six games, Wilson now has a 23/359/4 stat line this season. Consistency will be the challenge, but it is encouraging that he has six-plus targets in three consecutive games.

8. Paul Richardson, Washington Redskins (6 percent)

With the exception of Week 1, Richardson now has 50-plus yards or a touchdown in four of five games this season. The bad news is that he has yet to have more than four catches in any game and he has just 12 targets in his past three games combined.

9. Cole Beasley, Dallas Cowboys (9 percent)

Not only did Beasley score his first touchdown of the season, but he scored his second as well. The slot receiver blew up for 9/101/2 on 11 targets after a one-catch, eight-yard performance in Week 5. More useful in PPR formats, Beasley may still have more disappointing than useful outings the rest of the way in the low-volume Dallas passing offense.

10. Antonio Callaway, Cleveland Browns (22 percent)

It could (or should) have been a bigger day for Callaway, who only had two catches for 22 yards to go along with a two-point conversion. That said, he was targeted 10 times on Sunday.

Not only has Baker Mayfield thrown it more than 40 times in all three of his starts, but Jarvis Landry, Callaway and the Browns get a few favorable matchups against the Bucs, Steelers, Chiefs and Falcons before their Week 11 bye. Along with New Orleans, Tampa, Pittsburgh and Atlanta are the four teams that have allowed 30-plus fantasy PPG to opposing wide receivers this season.

11. Tyrell Williams, Los Angeles Chargers (9 percent)

With the injury to Hunter Henry, I thought Williams had a chance to be a top-40 fantasy wide receiver this season and I ranked him inside my top 50. Coming off a 3/118/2 outing, Williams now has more than 65 yards in back-to-back games but he has yet to exceed three receptions this season. In other words, he may be not a great add despite the big week.

2018 Fantasy Football Projections: Indianapolis Colts

In addition to viewing our 2018 Fantasy Football Projections by position, we will post our preseason projections per team.

Below you will find our 2018 fantasy football projections for the Indianapolis Colts.

Quarterbacks

 

PlayerAtt.Comp.YardsTDINTRushYardsTDFLPoints
Andrew Luck539.3331.7404528.616.756.62832.64.3278.1
It will be more than 600 days in between regular-season games and it's been an up-and-down preseason for Luck. The good news, however, is that he's back on the field and he ended the preseason with a strong performance against the 49ers. There is some obvious risk with Luck but also plenty of upside going into 2018. In his past three full seasons, Luck has finished as fantasy's QB4 (2013), QB2 (2014) and QB4 (2016).

Running Backs

 

PlayerAtt.YardsTDRec.YardsTDFLPoints
Marlon Mack123.5518.73.523.7210.90.91.296.96
Mack had 583 YFS, 21 receptions and four touchdowns with an average of 3.8 YPC as a rookie in 2017. With Frank Gore now in Miami, Mack should lead the team's backfield, but his Week 1 availability is "not a slam dunk." Colts owner Jim Irsay talked Mack up saying he "could see [Mack] approaching 1,500 yards" on the year.
Nyheim Hines65.1286.41.430.5280.61.50.872.5
Drawing comparisons to Darren Sproles, Hines is an explosive (4.38 forty) athlete, converted wide receiver and his versatility should allow Frank Reich to move him all over the field. A disappointing preseason, especially in terms of ball-security issues, could limit his early-season role.
Jordan Wilkins78.6330.12.23.321.50.10.348.36
Especially if Mack misses time to begin the season, the fifth-round rookie out of Mississippi should be able to carve out an early-down role in what could be a committee backfield.
Christine Michael67.4262.92.26.131.70.10.143.06
If Mack sits out the season opener, Michael appears the likeliest of Colts running backs to lead the group in workload. With no shortage of physical tools, Michael (along with the rest of the team's backs) has had a lackluster preseason performance.
Robert Turbin49.4187.71.612.5102.50.60.142.02

Wide Receivers

 

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDFLPoints
T.Y. Hilton75.812285.80001.2155.2
Failing to reach the 1,000-yard mark for the first time since his rookie season, the new offense and return of Andrew Luck bodes well for Hilton, who led the NFL with 1,448 receiving yards in 2016. While he likely won't lead the league in receiving yards again, a bounce-back season should be in the cards for Hilton.
Ryan Grant51.4611.73.60000.182.57
Beyond Hilton, Grant appears to be next in line amongst the team's wide receivers. Earlier this month, coach Frank Reich said: "T.Y. (Hilton) and Ryan Grant have really separated themselves." Grant set career highs last season in Washington with 45 catches for 573 yards and four touchdowns.
Chester Rogers31.9414.71.64.515.800.551.65

Tight Ends

 

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDFLPoints
Jack Doyle59.6548.35.40001.584.23
Doyle finished second on the team in targets (108) last season and posted career highs with 80 catches and 690 yards last season. With the Colts signing Eric Ebron, it's possible that Doyle fails to reach those numbers again. The return of Andrew Luck, however, makes Doyle a back-end TE1 heading into 2018.
Eric Ebron46.6568.54.20000.281.65
Missing multiple games in his first three seasons, Ebron played a full 16-game slate last year and finished 2017 with a 53/574/4 line. The former top-10 pick is still just 25 years old, has 161 receptions for 1,822 yards and 10 touchdowns over the past three years and perhaps the change of scenery will do him some good.

In his past three full seasons, Luck has finished as fantasy's QB4 (2013), QB2 (2014) and QB4 (2016). Although his ADP is likely to rise as we approach the start of the season, there is plenty of profit potential based on Luck's current ADP.

Marlon Mack157.2660.24.225.3225.211.2117.34
With Frank Gore in Miami, Mack should lead the team's backfield in workload and production, but he sustained a hamstring injury in the preseason opener that is expected to sideline him for a few weeks. In addition, Indianapolis drafted running backs Nyheim Hines and Jordan Wilkins in the fourth and fifth rounds, respectively. Mack had 583 YFS, 21 receptions and four touchdowns with an average of 3.8 YPC as a rookie in 2017. Colts owner Jim Irsay recently said: "Mack has a chance to be a special guy this year. Depends on how many times you want to feed him the ball, 16-20 touches on the ground (a game) and I could see him approaching 1,500 yards (for the season). I really could."

Jack Doyle57.55295.20001.581.1
Doyle finished second on the team in targets (108) last season and posted career highs with 80 catches and 690 yards last season. With the Colts signing Eric Ebron, it's possible that Doyle fails to reach those numbers or perhaps even his 2016 numbers (59/584/5).
Eric Ebron45.3552.74.10000.279.47
Missing multiple games in his first three seasons, Ebron played a full 16-game slate last year and finished with 53/574/4. Ebron has 161 receptions for 1,822 yards and 10 touchdowns over the past three years combined. The former top-10 pick is still just 25 years old and perhaps the change of scenery will do him some good.

2018 Fantasy Football Projections: Indianapolis Colts

In addition to viewing our 2018 Fantasy Football Projections by position, we will post our preseason projections per team.

Below you will find our 2018 fantasy football projections for the Indianapolis Colts.

Quarterbacks

 

PlayerAtt.Comp.YardsTDINTRushYardsTDFLPoints
Andrew Luck521.6320.8391227.116.255.12812.84.5268.38
Assuming Luck is under center against the Bengals in Week 1, it will be 616 days in between games. One major positive is that Luck continues to be pain-free in his shoulder after throwing sessions. Still without In his past three full seasons, Luck has finished as fantasy's QB4 (2013), QB2 (2014) and QB4 (2016). If he can stay healthy for the entire season, there is plenty of profit potential for those willing to roll the dice on Luck.

Running Backs

 

PlayerAtt.YardsTDRec.YardsTDFLPoints
Marlon Mack152.36323.825222.511.2111.85
With Frank Gore no longer in the picture, Mack is the favorite for the largest share of the backfield's workload, but Indianapolis drafted running backs Nyheim Hines and Jordan Wilkins in the fourth and fifth rounds, respectively. Mack, who is recovering from shoulder surgery, had 583 YFS, 21 receptions and four touchdowns with an average of 3.8 YPC as a rookie in 2017.
Nyheim Hines78.43451.628.82651.40.877.4
Drawing some comparisons to Darren Sproles, Hines is an explosive (4.38 forty) athlete, converted wide receiver and his versatility should allow Frank Reich to move him all over the field.

Wide Receivers

 

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDFLPoints
T.Y. Hilton71.411715.40001.2147.1
Failing to reach the 1,000-yard mark for the first time since his rookie season, the new offense and return of Andrew Luck bodes well for Hilton, who led the NFL with 1,448 receiving yards in 2016. A bounce-back campaign is on the horizon for the speedster, but one concern is the lack of touchdowns -- Hilton has never had more than seven scores in a season.

Andrew Luck508.7312.9381526.515.853.8274.42.74.5261.64
While there remains some concern with Luck, signs point to him being ready for the start of the 2018 NFL season. If so, it's a major boost to the offense overall even though Jacoby Brissett filled in admirably given the circumstances. In his past three full seasons, Luck has finished as fantasy's QB4 (2013), QB2 (2014) and QB4 (2016). If he can stay healthy for the entire season, there is plenty of profit potential for those willing to roll the dice on Luck.
