This chart brings up a couple of discussion points for the upcoming fantasy season:
1. This is one of the reasons why Calvin Johnson will be the #1 WR off the board in every draft.
2. Josh Gordon will not be playing this season so we don't need to talk about him.
3. Two veteran players had 6 games with 100+ receiving yards (Andre Johnson and Brandon Marshall). These players are very consistent and will produce for you if you draft them. They are a safe pick, but you know what you are going to get from them.
4. AJ Green has a new offensive coordinator in Hue Jackson. Jackson likes to emphasize a running game so will this hurt the production of AJ Green? I think his numbers will be down a little from last season, but he is still too good to avoid.
5. Julio Jones didn't make the list, but he did have three 100+ yard games in only five games before he got hurt. Where would he have been on this chart if he was healthy all year? He could be a great value pickup in your draft because he will drop lower due to injury concern. As of now, all reports say that Julio is good to go and has no lingering issues from his foot.
6. I like all of the players on the chart that recorded five 100+ yard games except for Eric Decker. Simply put, whether it's Vick or Smith at QB for the Jets, their offense will not be nearly as effective as the Broncos. As a result, I expect an inconsistent and disappointing year from Decker.
7. Dez Bryant is ranked as a Top 3-5 WR in almost every fantasy league. Although he doesn't have as many yards as other receivers, he was heavily involved in the red zone, scoring 13 TDs. That ranks 2nd out of all WR from last season.
