Baltimore Ravens

Projections
Jeremy Maclin: 69 rec, 863 yards, 6 TDs, 6 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 120.9 fantasy points
Mike Wallace: 63 rec, 806 yards, 5 TDs, 21 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 112.7 fantasy points
Breshad Perriman: 50 rec, 639 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 87.9 fantasy points

The Ravens threw the ball more than any other team in the league last season, but their wideouts were targeted just 52.6 percent of the time. That ranked 31st in the league. Baltimore also finished 28th in terms of wideout red-zone targets. On the flip side, Ravens running backs were 13th in total target percentage and seventh in red-zone target percentage. ... In Marty Mornhinweg's last 10 seasons as a coach or offensive coordinator, his wide receivers have ranked in the top 20 in fantasy points just four times. Wallace was 24th under his watch one season ago. ... Jeremy Maclin ranked 38th, 12th, 32nd and 27th in his four seasons with Mornhinweg during their time together in Philadelphia. He averaged 64 catches for 863 yards and six touchdowns in those campaigns. ... The Ravens lost 102 targets from their pass attack from last year when Steve Smith Sr. decided to retire.

Buffalo Bills

Projections
Sammy Watkins: 68 rec, 1,046 yards, 6 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 140.6 fantasy points
Zay Jones: 54 rec, 636 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 93.6 fantasy points

The Bills finished 32nd in wideout targets and tied for 31st in red-zone chances last season. ... The team's two most targeted wideouts, Robert Woods (76) and Marquise Goodwin (68), are no longer on the roster. That means more targets for Sammy Watkins and Zay Jones, who are projected to start. ... Watkins has missed 11 contests over the last two years due to foot problems, but his 16-game average in that time is 113 targets, 67 catches, 1,125 yards and eight touchdowns. He's a risk-reward No. 2 fantasy wideout. ... New offensive coordinator Rick Dennison has had a combined six top-20 fantasy wideout performances in his last six seasons in that role between Houston and Denver. That includes Andre Johnson, who ranked in the top 12 three times during their time together with the Texans. ... In 2016, the Broncos ranked second in wideout target percentage under Dennison.

Carolina Panthers

Projections
Kelvin Benjamin: 65 rec, 902 yards, 6 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 126.2 fantasy points
Curtis Samuel: 41 rec, 497 yards, 3 TDs, 169 rush yards, 1 rush TDs, 88.6 fantasy points
Devin Funchess: 50 rec, 543 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 82.3 fantasy points

Carolina ranked tied for 17th in wide receiver targets and tied for 19th in red-zone targets a season ago. ... Kelvin Benjamin led the team in targets (118) and finished 20th in fantasy points among wideouts, but he put up double-digit fantasy points just five times. ... Mike Shula has been an offensive coordinator for nine seasons at the NFL level. During that time, Benjmain is the lone wideout to post 1,000 or more yards in his system. Over the last five seasons, just two Panthers wideouts (Benjamin - 2014-2016, Steve Smith - 2013) have seen 100-plus targets. What's more, tight end Greg Olsen has seen more targets than any wideout on the team since 2013. ... Ted Ginn, who ranked second in wideout targets, is no longer on the roster. That should mean more opportunities for Devin Funchess and Curtis Samuel, but neither is worth more than a late-rounder in drafts.

Chicago Bears

Projections
Cameron Meredith: 65 rec, 823 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 112.3 fantasy points
Kevin White: 66 rec, 698 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 97.8 fantasy points

The Bears finished 11th in wide receiver targets and eighth in red-zone targets in their first season under offensive coordinator Dowell Loggains. That had much to due with injuries to tight end Zach Miller and the lack of a pass catcher in the backfield. ... In addition to the two seasons he filled that role in Tennessee, Loggains' top wide receiver has averaged 111 targets. ... Cameron Meredith led the Bears in total targets a season ago, but Alshon Jeffery was first in targets-per-game average (7.8). With Jeffery now no longer on the roster, Meredith figures to reach the 100-target mark in 2017. He's a legitimate sleeper choice. ... Kevin White, a former first-round pick, has missed all but four games in his first two years due to injuries. While he's now back at full speed, White is still worth no more than a late-rounder based on his noted proneness to injuries at the NFL level.

Cincinnati Bengals

Projections
A.J. Green: 91 rec, 1,332 yards, 8 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 181.2 fantasy points
John Ross: 40 rec, 483 yards, 5 TDs, 79 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 84.2 fantasy points
Brandon LaFell: 38 rec, 410 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 65 fantasy points
Tyler Boyd: 45 rec, 427 yards, 2 TDs, 11 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 53.8 fantasy points

Cincinnati ranked 14th in wideout targets and 19th in red-zone chances in their first season under offensive coordinator Ken Zampese. ... A.J. Green was on pace to finish with 160 targets before he went down with an injured hamstring. That would have been his highest total since 2013. Green was also on pace for 105 catches and 1,542 yards, which would have both been career highs. His projected 16 red-zone targets would have ranked tied for 18th among wideouts. ... Brandon LaFell led the Bengals with 107 targets, but 61 (or 57 percent) of them came over the final seven games of the season during which time Green was injured. ... The addition of rookie John Ross will mean fewer targets for both LaFell and Tyler Boyd, neither of whom is worth more than a late-round flier in deeper leagues. As for Ross, he's worth a late look in drafts but has to be monitored after shoulder surgery.

Cleveland Browns

Projections
Kenny Britt: 65 rec, 931 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 121.1 fantasy points
Corey Coleman: 61 rec, 731 yards, 5 TDs, 23 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 105.4 fantasy points

The Browns finished 21st in wide receiver targets and 24th in red-zone target totals under the watch of head coach Hue Jackson. .... In six full seasons as either a coach or offensive coordinator at the NFL level, Hue Jackson has produced just one top-10 fantasy wideout (A.J. Green, 2015). The next best fantasy players at the position were Laveranues Coles (13th, 2003) and Roddy White (14th, 2007). ... From 2005-2016, the Browns have had just three wideouts (Josh Gordon - 2013, Braylon Edwards - 2007, Terrelle Pryor - 2016) finish in the top 25 in fantasy points. ... Pryor led the team in targets (144) a season ago, but he's no longer on the roster. Those opportunities figure to go to Kenny Britt, who finished 26th in fantasy points among wideouts with the Rams last season. ... Corey Coleman averaged 7.3 targets a game as a rookie and will push Britt for the team lead.

Dallas Cowboys

Projections
Dez Bryant: 78 rec, 1,157 yards, 8 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 163.7 fantasy points
Cole Beasley: 63 rec, 737 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 97.7 fantasy points
Terrance Williams: 47 rec, 621 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 84.1 fantasy points

The Cowboys ranked 29th in wide receiver targets and 26th in red-zone target chances last season. ... Scott Linehan has produced nine top-10 fantasy wideouts in 15 seasons as either a head coach or offensive coordinator. Of course, he's coached elite receivers like Randy Moss, Torry Holt, Calvin Johnson and Dez Bryant in that time. The lone "non-elite" wide receiver who's finished in the top 10 under Linehan was Chris Chambers (ninth, 2005). ... Bryant has missed 10 games over the last two seasons due to injuries. Projecting his average numbers during that time over 16 games, he would finish with 122 targets, 59 receptions, 871 yards and eight touchdowns. He had averaged 144 targets, 91 receptions, 1,312 yards and 14 touchdowns in his previous three seasons, so his numbers have declined. ... Cole Beasley led the team with 98 targets a year ago, which was 23 more than his previous career best (2015). He's worth a late rounder, especially in PPR formats.

Denver Broncos

Projections
Demaryius Thomas: 88 rec, 1,108 yards, 6 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 144.8 fantasy points
Emmanuel Sanders: 80 rec, 1,054 yards, 6 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 139.4 fantasy points

The Broncos were tied for sixth in wideout targets and seventh in red-zone targets last season, which should be a surprise to no one when you consider the team's lack of an effective pass catcher at running back and tight end. Despite those high totals, Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders still combined to post just 10 touchdown catches and neither finished in the top 15 in fantasy points among wideouts. ... In eight seasons as either an offensive coordinator or head coach, Mike McCoy has produced five top-20 fantasy wideout performances. That includes three top-seven finishes and one season (2012) with a pair of top-seven wideouts (Thomas - fifth, Eric Decker - seventh). ... Thomas averaged a solid 12.6 fantasy points per game with Peyton Manning. Without him, he has averaged 7.6 points. ... Thomas' target totals have now declined in each of the last three campaigns.

Detroit Lions

Projections
Golden Tate: 95 rec, 1,072 yards, 5 TDs, 33 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 138.5 fantasy points
Marvin Jones: 56 rec, 895 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 119.5 fantasy points
Kenny Golladay: 41 rec, 506 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 75.6 fantasy points

The Lions offense was tied for eighth in wide receiver targets and third in red-zone targets last season. ... Anquan Boldin, who is no longer on the roster, finished third in total targets and led the team with 23 red-zone targets. Those important opportunities should now be spread out to Golden Tate, Marvin Jones and tight end Eric Ebron. ... In Detroit's first season since the retirement of Calvin Johnson, Tate led the Lions with 135 targets and was second behind Boldin in red-zone chances (18). He could push up the No. 2 fantasy wideout ranks this season. ... Marvin Jones scored a combined 44.3 fantasy points in Weeks 2-3, but put up a total of 64.5 fantasy points (two touchdowns) in his final 13 games. ... Rookie Kenny Golladay is projected to open as the third wideout on the roster, but he's worth little more than a late-round flier as the Lions are likely to use more two tight-end sets.

Green Bay Packers

Projections
Jordy Nelson: 90 rec, 1,211 yards, 10 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 181.3 fantasy points
Davante Adams: 68 rec, 872 yards, 8 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 133.2 fantasy points
Randall Cobb: 58 rec, 687 yards, 6 TDs, 37 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 108.4 fantasy points

To the surprise of no one, the Packers ranked first in wideout targets and red-zone opportunities at the position a season ago. ... Jordy Nelson led the offense with 152 targets (9.5 TPG), while Davante Adams finished second with 121. The duo combined to post 26 touchdown catches, ranked second and seventh, respectively, at the position and were the highest-scoring wideout teammates (based on fantasy points) in the league. Touchdown regression is a concern for each of them, however. ... Coordinator Edgar Bennett's offense did spread the ball around, as four different players (Nelson, Adams, Randall Cobb, Ty Montgomery) finished with 40-plus catches. ... Aaron Rodgers has now had at least one top-20 fantasy wideout in all but one of his seasons as the Packers starter. ... Cobb has seen his reception, yardage and touchdown totals decline in each of the last three seasons.

Houston Texans

Projections
DeAndrew Hopkins: 77 rec, 1,089 yards, 6 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 144.9 fantasy points
Will Fuller: 58 rec, 772 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 107.2 fantasy points

Houston finished 23rd in wideout targets and 25th in red-zone targets in 2016, as the passing offense finished as one of the worst in the league. ... Head coach Bill O'Brien will now serve as the player caller after the dismissal of George Godsey, and the trade of Brock Osweiler should improve the prospects of DeAndre Hopkins. The talented wideout experienced declines in targets (minus-41), receptions (minus-33), yards (minus-567) and touchdowns (minus-8) compared to his 2015 totals, while also falling from sixth to 36th in fantasy points at the position. Hopkins' 3.2 yards after the catch was also in the bottom half of the league. ... In the three games where Tom Savage led the Texans in pass attempts, Hopkins averaged 11 targets, six receptions and 84 yards. He averaged nine targets, 4.6 receptions and 54 yards in the other 13 games where Brock Osweiler was under center.

T.Y. Hilton: 81 rec, 1,233 yards, 7 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 163.3 fantasy points
Donte Moncrief: 57 rec, 773 yards, 8 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 123.3 fantasy points
Phillip Dorsett: 26 rec, 342 yards, 2 TDs, 4 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 44.6 fantasy points

The Colts ranked 22nd in both targets and in red-zone targets among wide receivers last season. ... T.Y. Hilton led the team with 155 targets, which was 96 more than the next best wideout (Phillip Dorsett, 59), but that total could decline at least somewhat with Donte Moncrief back in the mix. He missed a total of seven games due to injuries. A touchdown machine at the pro level, Moncrief visited the end zone seven times despite catching just 30 passes. What's more, 70 percent of his red-zone targets resulted in touchdowns. ... In his last six seasons as either a head coach or offensive coordinator, Rob Chudzinski had produced four top-six fantasy wide receivers. That includes Braylon Edwards (third, 2007), Steve Smith Sr. (sixth, 2011), Josh Gordon (first, 2013) and Hilton (fifth, 2016). What's more, Chudzinski has produced at least one top-20 fantasy wideout in all but one season.

Projections
Allen Robinson: 77 rec, 996 yards, 7 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 141.6 fantasy points
Marqise Lee: 57 rec, 678 yards, 4 TDs, 45 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 96.3 fantasy points
Allen Hurns: 46 rec, 630 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 85 fantasy points

The Jaguars finished fifth in wideout targets and 11th in red-zone targets a season ago, but that didn't keep Allen Robinson from putting up a disappointing campaign. While his targets remained high (151), his yardage (minus-517) and touchdowns (minus-eight) experienced a major decline. That can be blamed in part to a decrease in the number of targets he saw that were 20 or more yards (compared to 2015). Robinson also averaged 5.4 fewer yards per catch. ... Allen Hurns also saw declines across the board compared to his previous season, and his 6.9 targets-per-game average was just 0.3 more than Marqise Lee. New offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett failed to produce a top-20 fantasy wideout in two seasons in that role with the Bills. ... With rookie running back Leonard Fournette now in the mix, the Jaguars and Bortles figure to throw a whole lot less in 2017.

Kansas City Chiefs

Tyreek Hill: 71 rec, 765 yards, 5 TDs, 210 rush yards, 2 rush TDs, 135.5 fantasy points
Chris Conley: 48 rec, 461 yards, 3 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 62.1 fantasy points

The Chiefs finished 30th in wide receiver targets and tied for 15th in red-zone targets a season ago, which isn't a surprise on a team whose top-targeted player was a tight end (Travis Kelce). ... Jeremy Maclin, who averaged a team-high 6.3 targets per game among wideouts, is no longer on the roster. ... In three seasons in Kansas City, head coach Andy Reid has produced two top-20 fantasy wideouts but none in the top 10. He has also had just one 1,000-yard wideout (Maclin, 2015), and his leading player at the position has averaged just 101 targets, 66 receptions and 777 receiving yards in that time. ... Tyreek Hill figures to take over the role of Kansas City's No. 1 wide receiver. Over his final eight games of last season, he averaged 6.6 targets and another 1.6 rush attempts. Overall, Hill averaged 9.7 yards per catch and 11.1 yards per rush attempt. He'll be a breakout candidate.

Tyrell Williams: 58 rec, 771 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 107.3 fantasy points
Mike Williams: 38 rec, 452 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 69.2 fantasy points

The Chargers ranked 24th in targets and 23rd in red-zone targets among wideouts last season. Those stats reflect a team that saw two tight ends (Hunter Henry, Antonio Gates) record a combined 30 red-zone targets and 16 touchdown catches. ... Ken Whisenhunt has been either a head coach or offensive coordinator for 13 seasons at the NFL level. In that time, he's coached six top-10 fantasy wideouts and 10 top-20 receivers. However, he's had just two (Keenan Allen - 2013, Tyrell Williams - 2016) finish higher than 18th in points in his last five seasons. ... Allen has missed 23 contests over the last two years due to injuries. In his nine active games, however, Allen recorded 96 targets, 73 receptions and 788 yards. ... Tyrell Williams is coming off a career season, but the Chargers also have first-round rookie Mike Williams, Dontrelle Inman and Travis Benjamin in a crowded pass attack.

Robert Woods: 69 rec, 758 yards, 4 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 99.8 fantasy points
Tavon Austin: 50 rec, 549 yards, 3 TDs, 127 rush yards, 1 rush TDs, 89.6 fantasy points

The Rams finished last season tied for 18th in wideout targets and 27th in red-zone targets, and their highest-scoring player at the position (Britt) ranked just 26th in fantasy points. ... Britt, who is no longer on the roster, left 111 targets behind. ... New head coach Sean McVay served as the offensive coordinator in Washington for three seasons. During that time, just one wideout (DeSean Jackson - 2014) finished in the top 20 in points at the position. Furthermore, their best receiver finished 36th (Pierre Garcon) and 30th (Jamison Crowder) in 2015 and 2016, respectively. ... Tavon Austin finished with a personal-best 106 targets in 2016, but his decreased role in the ground game cost him fantasy appeal. ... Robert Woods, signed during the offseason, could push for the team lead in targets and receptions. However, his statistical ceiling is limited with quarterback Jared Goff under center.

Miami Dolphins

Projections
Jarvis Landry: 92 rec, 1,080 yards, 5 TDs, 23 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 140.3 fantasy points
DeVante Parker: 67 rec, 856 yards, 6 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 121.6 fantasy points
Kenny Stills: 45 rec, 704 yards, 5 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 100.4 fantasy points

The Dolphins ranked 25th in wide receiver targets and 30th in red-zone targets, so the team didn't use their wideouts nearly as much inside the opponent's 20-yard line. That's evident in the red-zone stats of Jarvis Landry and DeVante Parker, who combined for 18 targets and eight touchdowns. Landry ranks ninth in targets among wideouts over the last two years, but his eight combined scores are tied for just 44th. ... In his four seasons as either a head coach or offensive coordinator, Adam Gase has produced four top-eight and six top-25 fantasy wideouts. The lone season that Gase failed to produce a top-25 wideout was in 2015, when his top option at the position (Jeffery) missed seven games. If you project Jeffery's totals over a full season, however, he would have finished with 96 catches, 1,434 yards and seven touchdowns. Those totals would have put him ninth at wideout.

Laquon Treadwell: 36 rec, 414 yards, 2 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 51.2 fantasy points

The Vikings finished 19th in wideout targets and 21st in red-zone targets a season ago. ... Despite missing three games, Stefon Diggs still led the offense in targets (8.6 TPG) and averaged almost 70 yards a contest. Now entering his third NFL campaign, Diggs is a viable draft bargain if he can avoid injuries. A season with 90 catches, 1,000-plus yards and five touchdowns is not out of the question. ... Adam Thielen posted career highs across the board, but 45 percent of his receiving yards came in just three games. ... Pat Shurmur has been a head coach or offensive coordinator in each of the last eight seasons. During that time, he's had just two top-10 fantasy wideouts (DeSean Jackson - 2009, Maclin - 2010) and three other top-25 performances at the position. Thielen ranked 29th in 2016. Furthermore, his leading fantasy wideout ranked 20th or worse in all but one of those eight seasons.

Brandin Cooks: 71 rec, 1,002 yards, 7 TDs, 48 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 145.0 fantasy points

Chris Hogan: 31 rec, 412 yards, 2 TDs, 0 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 63.2 fantasy points

The Patriots ranked 27th in targeted wide receivers and 10th in red-zone chances in 2016, as the team had four players at the position with at least 10 red-zone targets. Julian Edelman led New England in both targets (160) and red-zone targets (15), but both of those totals seem destined to decline with the addition of Brandin Cooks and the return of tight end Rob Gronkowski from an injured back. Cooks averaged 123 targets in his last two seasons in New Orleans, that's 65 more than Chris Hogan had last season. Hogan was the Patriots' second-most targeted wideout. ... Josh McDaniels has produced four top-20 fantasy wideouts in his last seven seasons as an offensive coordinator or head coach, including two top-10 finishers in Brandon Marshall (2009) and Brandon Lloyd (2010). However, no Patriots wideout has ranked in the top 20 at the position since 2013 (Edelman, 18th).

Ted Ginn Jr.: 52 rec, 741 yards, 5 TDs, 76 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 111.7 fantasy points

The Saints finished fourth in targets and tied for fifth in red-zone chances at the position last season. ... Michael Thomas led the team in total targets (117) and touchdown catches (9), but Cooks was a close second in both categories. ... Willie Snead, who finished third on the team in targets, could push for a new career high in targets with Cooks no longer on the roster. He'll be a prominent sleeper pick in drafts. ... Pete Carmichael's offense has produced at least one top-20 fantasy wideout in six of his eight seasons as the team's coordinator. That includes a 2016 campaign that saw Cooks (eighth) and Thomas (ninth) finish in the top 10. Carmichael has also had at least one wideout score eight or more touchdowns in six of his eight seasons. ... Ginn might not see a huge volume of targets, but his deep-threat capabilities make him a nice late-round choice with Drew Brees under center.
