QUARTERBACKS
Player | Att. | Comp. | Yards | TD | INT | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bryce Young | 523.8 | 335.2 | 3666.6 | 21.48 | 13.36 | 53 | 214.7 | 1.33 | 235.31 |
Andy Dalton | 33.4 | 21.8 | 232.1 | 1.4 | 0.9 | 6.8 | 21.1 | 0.14 | 16.03 |
Bryce Young: It is no surprise that the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 draft will be the Week 1 starter, but his dynasty outlook vastly outweighs his fantasy value in redraft leagues. Ups and downs should be expected for any rookie, but Young is always composed, processes information quickly and thrives when extending and making plays outside of structure.
RUNNING BACKS
Player | Att. | Yards | TD | Rec. | Yards | TD | Points |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Miles Sanders | 203 | 923.7 | 5.48 | 32.7 | 251.5 | 1.4 | 175.15 |
Chuba Hubbard | 108.2 | 465.3 | 2.81 | 21.4 | 159.8 | 0.9 | 95.47 |
Raheem Blackshear | 69.9 | 286.6 | 1.99 | 19.3 | 144.3 | 0.8 | 69.48 |
Miles Sanders: Sanders set career highs in rushing last season with 259 carries for 1,269 yards and 11 touchdowns. Through four NFL seasons, he has averaged 5.02 yards per carry running behind the league's best offensive line. With Jalen Hurts under center, Sanders (and Philly's running backs) weren't targeted often, but he had 50 receptions as a rookie in 2019. There's a good chance that he's more involved as a receiver than he was over the past several seasons.
Chuba Hubbard: Sanders played a full 17-game slate last season, but he played only 12 games in each of the previous two seasons. While Sanders (groin) says he'll be ready to go for Week 1, Hubbard would likely handle the largest share of the workload if Sanders were to miss any time this season.
WIDE RECEIVERS
Player | Rec. | Yards | TD | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Adam Thielen | 53.6 | 596.5 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 110.45 |
D.J. Chark | 45.2 | 655 | 3.5 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 109.1 |
Jonathan Mingo | 47.3 | 590.7 | 3.4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 103.12 |
Terrace Marshall Jr. | 31.2 | 409.4 | 2.3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 70.34 |
Laviska Shenault Jr. | 23.2 | 251.5 | 1.4 | 10.1 | 55.6 | 0.51 | 53.77 |
Ihmir Smith-Marsette | 4.1 | 46.8 | 0.3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 8.53 |
Adam Thielen: After spending his entire career in Minnesota, Thielen begins anew with the Panthers and a rookie quarterback in his age-33 season. Thielen has has a minimum of 67 catches and 710 yards in each of the past three seasons, and he's one of five players with at least 30 touchdowns during that span, per Stathead.
D.J. Chark: Chark will compete with Adam Thielen, Terrace Marshall Jr. and Jonathan Mingo for targets, which means that Chark has a real shot to lead the team's wide receivers in fantasy points in 2023. Chark has appeared in only 28 games over the past three seasons, but he had a breakout age-23 season before that with 73/1,008/8 in 2019. Chark (hamstring) says he's optimistic about his Week 1 availability.
Jonathan Mingo: The Panthers used a top-40 pick on Mingo, a big receiver (6-2, 220) who had a strong showing at the combine (4.46 40-yard dash, 39.5" vertical jump and 22 bench press reps). While the college production wasn't elite as a four-year starter, he's a good route runner who uses his size and strong hands to win in contested-catch situations.
TIGHT ENDS
Player | Rec. | Yards | TD | Rush | Yards | TD | Points |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Hayden Hurst | 49.1 | 487.3 | 2.9 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 90.68 |
Ian Thomas | 15.2 | 154 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 29 |
Tommy Tremble | 12.5 | 128.7 | 0.9 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 24.52 |
Giovanni Ricci | 2.3 | 23.4 | 0.1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 4.09 |
Hayden Hurst: Hurst is playing for his fourth team since being drafted in the first round in 2018. While he has missed four games in back-to-back seasons, he averaged a career high in receptions per game (4.0) last season with the Bengals. Hurst has averaged only 8.1 yards per reception over the past two seasons, but he has the potential to post comparable numbers to last year (52/414/2).
