[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Johnson is an incredible talent that will likely go down as one of the best receivers in the history of the game when all is said and done. That being said, it's concerning how little help Johnson has in the receiving corps and unlike A.J. Green and Julio Jones, Johnson's best years are likely no longer in front of him. I still believe he has several years remaining as a WR1 but I don't think being the best receiver of the past 2-3 seasons necessarily make him the best receiver for the next 2-3 seasons. Johnson is not likely to replicate his 122 receptions from 2012 as it was more than 20% more than he'd ever recorded before. I see approximately 100 catches for 1600 yards as more likely. One of the more unpredictable statistics in 2013 will be Johnson's touchdown total. He's had twelve or more three times and five or less three times in his career. I'd look for him to fall somewhere in the middle in 2013. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Brandon Marshall finally found his happy place in Chicago in 2012. He was a PPR machine in his reunion with Jay Cutler. I see another big year for Marshall ahead, but I'm not sure it will be quite as big. Alshon Jeffery should mature into a better second option and Martellus Bennett will provide a quality option in the middle of the field. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Julio Jones showed great improvement in 2012 and should continue his development into an elite receiver in 2013. Jones is the only target on this offense that isn't approaching the end of their career and for that reason I think he'll see yet another increase in targets this season. He developed into a more complete receiver last year and proved that he can stay healthy for a 16 game season. I may have jumped the gun a little in predicting Jones as the alpha dog in the Falcons' receiving corps in 2012, but Roddy White is continuing to move farther away from his prime while Julio Jones is just approaching it. The change of the guard is coming, timing is the only discussion at this point. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Johnson used a couple of monster performances to catapult himself to another top ten finish in 2012. He posted a career high in both targets and receptions, numbers that should both be affected by the presence of rookie DeAndre Hopkins. For someone that had missed 12 games over the previous two seasons, Johnson's 16 games last year were a bit of a surprise. At 32 years old I have a hard time seeing him match last year's numbers. I like Johnson's prospects as a WR1 much better in PPR where the inevitable affects of age are less likely to show their impact. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Demaryius Thomas is the WR1 in what should be one of the more prolific passing offenses in the league. The addition of Wes Welker does concern me just a little from a PPR perspective and I think you have to be cautious ranking Thomas too high in dynasty simply because of his quarterback's age. That being said he should be a safer bet to be a mid-level WR1 in 2013. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: The resurgence of Reggie Wayne with Andrew Luck under center was remarkably similar to what we saw two years ago with Steve Smith and Cam Newton. Unfortunately, like Smith did last year I expect we'll see Wayne take at least a small step back in 2013. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: White is entering the twilight of his career and while he was still a a very productive receiver in 2012 the signs of decline were there. White saw his lowest number of targets and touchdowns since 2008 and fell below 100 receptions for the first time in three years. White's been a top ten receiver for five straight years, a streak that I see ending in 2013. He'll turn 32 to this season, and likely has a 2-3 years of WR2 production left in the tank. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Bowe's probably not going to live up to his own projections of leading the league in both receptions and touchdowns but he should be much better than he's been the past two seasons with Matt Cassel at quarterback. He;s a solid WR2 with WR1 upside. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: After three years in the shadows Nelson burst onto the scene with 1200 yards and 15 TDs in 2011 to rank as the second best wide receiver in the league. Last year he struggled with injuries and barely finished as a mid-level WR3. I believe 2013 should be somewhere in the middle of those numbers if not a little closer to 2011. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Jackson started his career in Tampa Bay off with a bang but was not the same threat in the second half of the year. In the last ten games of the year Jackson had four games where he failed to score even six fantasy points and he only scored three touchdowns over that span. I believe that's because defenses really shifted their focus to Jackson after his monster start to the season and I expect that to continue in 2013. Jackson is a good receiver but he's not elite and Josh Freeman is not accurate enough to feed a receiver that's being double teamed. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Nicks' 2013 will be all about his health. If he's healthy he's one of the more consistent receiving options in the league. Victor Cruz limits his ceiling a little bit but I'd be thrilled with landing Nicks as my WR2. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Maclin has never lived up to his reputation but I think Chip Kelly's new offense gives him a big boost. He'll benefit from the number of play the Eagles run and from being a much more reliable possession receiver than his counterpart DeSean Jackson. Touchdowns are always questionable but I could definitely see him topping his career highs in receptions and yardage. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Steve Smith should be at the age where we start to see a noticeable difference in ability. I say should because it hasn't really happened yet. Smith is in excellent condition and is the unquestioned leader of the Panthers. I'm predicting a slight drop in production because it is the only thing that makes sense for a 34 year-old receiver. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: I have concerns over whether Brown can have the same success as the #1 option in the offense. With Mike Wallace gone and Heath Miller out for the start of the year Brown will have plenty of opportunity, but he'll receive a lot more attention from defenses as well. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: I'm not as high on Jackson as I am Jeremy Maclin because I think no matter what type of offense you run Jackson is going to be an all or nothing prospect. He won't likely ever match his 2009 or 2010 numbers and as a receiver who's greatest skill is speed his long term prospects aren't great either. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Minnesota may have offered the most money but I do not like this fit at all for Jennings. Christian Ponder's only hope as an NFL quarterback is to dump the ball off to elite athletes like Percy Harvin or Adrian Peterson and let them pick up the yards for him. Jennings is still a fine receiver but he's no longer that type of athlete. He may fair better in PPR leagues because he should be heavily targeted but I wouldn't expect much in terms of yardage or touchdowns. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: It worries me that Garcon still doesn't consider himself 100% but he was pretty solid last year even on a bum wheel. He's the unquestioned #1 for one of the most exciting young quarterbacks in the league. His ceiling is low WR1, but he and Griffin will both have to be 100% to make that happen. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Tavon Austin steps into the role played by Danny Amendola in St. Louis, a role that could see Austin become a star. he's lightning fast, but there are serious questions about whether he's big enough to play in the NFL. He's a high upside pick that should be the top scoring rookie receiver in PPR formats. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Moore is entering the all important third year of his career and has done nothing but improve in his first two seasons. His production hinges on the play of Matt Flynn. If Flynn is able to match Carson Palmer's level of play Moore could develop into a high level WR2. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Moore had a career best 1041 yards in 2012 mostly because of a career best 16 yards per reception. That is 33% higher that he's ever averaged in his eight year career, so it's unlikely that he maintains it. Moore has played 16 games just once in the past four seasons and is likely only startable in PPR leagues as a low-end WR3. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: The addition of Percy Harvin could be huge for Rice, especially if Russell Wilson continues his development as a quarterback. Defenses will now have to focus first on the run and second on Harvin. This could create some excellent matchups downfield for Rice. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Kenny Britt is a wild card that you stash on the bench and hope turns into to something. It's easy to remember his magical start to 2011 (271 yards and 3 touchdowns) and think of what could be. The fact is that Britt topped 100 yards just once last year and has a checkered past on and off the field. Don't rely on him. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Floyd badly missed Vincent Jackson in 2012 and verified that he's not WR1 material. Now he faces a struggle in camp just to keep his starting job. Floyd will be 32 when the season starts and has missed 11 games over the past three years. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: In his third season out of The Citadel Roberts was quietly the top performing fantasy receiver in Arizona in 2012. While that's unlikely to carry over into 2013, it's also unlikely that the development of Michael Floyd diminishes all of Roberts' value. I expect Floyd and Fitzgerald to improve on their 2012 numbers while Roberts puts up slightly lower numbers. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Gordon established himself a verifiable deep threat in 2012 and is currently the best receiver on the Browns roster. Unfortunately, projections for Gordon have to be made on a 14 game basis because he's been suspended for the first two games of 2013. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Greg Little is never going to be what his body and abilities promised he might at the beginning of his career. That being said, Little was more consistent in the last four weeks of 2012 and could develop into a nice bye week replacement in PPR leagues. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: There's a lot of buzz around an improved Michael Floyd. One thing's for certain, Floyd's situation improved with the addition of Carson Palmer. He finished the season very stong but I'm not sure I see a huge improvement coming in 2013. Palmer will do everything he can to get Larry Fitzgerald involved and that likely means that Floyd and Andre Roberts will be fighting for scraps. I'm not certain this offense can sustain two top 50 fantasy receivers, much less three. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Santonio Holmes has the most talent in the Jets' receving corps but he's struggled with injuries and doesn't seemed enthralled with the team. A healthy,focused Holmes would go a long way towards helping out whoever earns the starting quarterback job but I'm not betting on that. (hide this)

[Jun 7th] Heath Cummings says: Over the last nine weeks of 2012 Alexander was the sixth best receiver in fantasy football. Of course, it was the first time in his NFL career that he's been able to string together nine straight games. Alexander has the ability to be one of the best receivers in the league but has legitimate injury concerns that aren't likely to go away for a 16 game season. (hide this)
