Our fantasy analysts provide the players they are targeting most after the early rounds of their drafts this year.
If you're a fantasy manager who has taken part in enough mock drafts this summer, you likely have a quick answer to this question. It might even be hard for you to pick just one player. But that's what we are asking our ESPN Fantasy analysts to do.
Flowers has breakout potential heading into his second pro season after averaging 12.9 fantasy points per game as a rookie in 2023, while scoring 19 or more points in four of his final five games played. Remember, Flowers has the dynamic traits to be deployed as a three-level target in Baltimore. Plus, his ball-carrier vision and sudden acceleration create opportunities to win in space, as 45.1% of Flowers' total receiving yards came after the catch.
I cannot, and will not, quit on Pitts. Many fantasy managers who selected him the past two seasons will not be willing to make this pick again, but I absolutely love it. Arthur Smith and his insufficient QBs are gone.' offense are in. Pitts is now two full seasons removed from his debilitating knee injury. The fourth-year pro provides the rare upside of 1,000-plus yards at tight end. I'm back all-in.
Johnson is being drafted outside the top 30 receivers in ESPN leagues, and I just don't get it. He's one of the few players at his ADP who's projected to lead his team in targets. The Panthers brought in Johnson to help, and I'm confident he can do the same for Young and the Panthers. Johnson has had at least 85 targets and 50 receptions every season of his career. He's a solid WR3 with WR2 upside.
