Players To Never Draft Again + Those Who Deserve A Second ...

This week our writers are discussing a couple of topics that is all too familiar to fantasy managers — players we won’t ever draft again and players who deserve a second chance. What matters is that Jones missed seven games with injuries last year and finished with just 51 receptions for 771 yards and four receiving touchdowns. He is 32 years old and joins a team where A.J. Brown is the primary wide receiver and the Titans have ranked 31st and 26th in passing attempts the last two seasons. I just do not know how much fantasy upside he has as the No. 2 in a passing game that threw only 448 passes last year. When you combine a run-oriented offense, an older player coming off injuries, and a player of his stature; it is a perfect recipe for an overvalued fantasy player. The 29-year old was a late-bloomer who broke out during the 49ers’ Super Bowl run in 2019 with 952 total yards and nine touchdowns to finish as the RB24 in half-PPR formats. He followed a career year with substantially lower production, limited to only eight games due to ankle and knee injuries that resulted in a RB48 finish after fantasy managers used high draft capital to acquire Mostert heading into the 2020 season. His running style is admirable and is most likely the reason for his success, but also leads to too many injuries and missed games to be drafted in the first few rounds. Last year he missed four games and had five others with less than nine fantasy points, so I would suggest he’s a much better best-ball pick. Lastly, even if you drafted Jason Sanders and rostered two kickers over his bye week last year, he only mustered up, on average, 2.4 points per game more than the 12th-ranked kicker in 2020, Wil Lutz. He has a strong running game and Philip Rivers was able to post 4,169 yards passing and 24 passing touchdowns with this group last year. Kupp set the league on fire in 2019, finishing as the WR4 in half-PPR formats with a great 70.1 percent catch rate on 134 targets, yielding 1,161 yards and 10 touchdowns. Kittle’s been the No. 1 target on this team for years. He already has documented production with a 1,000 yard season under his belt, and has two very positive changes in his situation this year. He’s currently ranked 77th (31st WR), and I am all for giving this player a second chance.
