QUARTERBACKS

Jalen Hurts518.7321.63786.522.311.93121.4667.77.28327.25
Gardner Minshew51.334.6369.42.360.829.7310.1926.82

Jalen Hurts: Hurts threw only 16 touchdowns in 2021, but only one quarterback -- Justin Herbert (12) -- had more QB1 weekly finishes last season than Hurts (11). Hurts was tied for second with Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady and Josh Allen. His elite rushing upside (10 rushing scores in 2021) matters more than his modest passing numbers, but the trade for A.J. Brown to join Devonta Smith and Dallas Goedert should lead to more prolific passing stats in 2022.

RUNNING BACKS

Jason Huntley8.534.40.151.18.305.72

Miles Sanders: Sanders has missed at least four games in back-to-back seasons, but he's averaged 5.4 yards per carry on the 301 rush attempts he's handled over that span. He's been less effective as a receiver (6.6 Y/R, 62.8% catch rate).

WIDE RECEIVERS

A.J. Brown72.310146.3000175.35
DeVonta Smith69.8908.15.5000158.71
Quez Watkins23.9299.21.700052.07

Greg Ward Jr.8.599.70.600017.82
Jalen Reagor6.887.30.53.614.80.0917.15

A.J. Brown: While he missed four games in 2021, Brown's 105 targets were only one shy of his career high (106, 2020). That said, he posted career lows in receiving yards (869), yards per reception (13.8), yards per target (8.3) and touchdowns (five). Going from one run-centric offense in Tennessee to another in Philadelphia means that he will boost the fantasy value for Jalen Hurts more than the other way around.

DeVonta Smith: Smith had a productive rookie season (64/916/5), but the trade for A.J. Brown limits Smith's upside and potential to make a big second-year leap.

TIGHT ENDS

PlayerRec.YardsTDRushYardsTDPoints
Dallas Goedert57685.74.2000122.27
Jack Stoll7.7790.400014.15
Tyree Jackson6.666.50.300011.75
Grant Calcaterra6.162.30.300011.08

Dallas Goedert: Zach Ertz was traded in October, and Goedert had back-to-back 100-yard games in December. If it weren't for the addition of A.J. Brown, who I project to lead the team in receiving, Goedert would be poised for another big leap forward. Even though he clearly tops the team's depth chart at tight end, Goedert is a mid-tier TE1 given the team's run-first offense and the fact that both Brown and last year's first-round pick Devonta Smith are in front of Goedert in the target pecking order.
