[Jun 6th] Andrew Garda says: Even if Calvin Johnson falls short of matching the 1,964 yards he got in 2012, he's still going to be getting more targets than anyone else in this offense and can produce with them. If only the team can find a way to get his touchdowns back up, Johnson could be the best fantasy receiver to ever play the game. I expect his touchdowns to pick back up and top the paltry five he had last year. That's great news for those willing to go wide receiver at the top of the draft. (hide this)

[Jun 8th] Andrew Garda says: In 2012, Marshall returned to being Jay Cutler's favorite target. Some days it seemed as if he was the only target. Head coach Marc Trestman's speedy offense should allow the Bears to take advantage of defenses being unable to shift the right coverage to Marshall, which will expose them to some big gains and lots of fantasy points.

[Jun 8th] Andrew Garda says: Dez Bryant had a breakthrough season in 2012, though not without a few bumps along the way. Both the occasionaly bone headed moment and the occasionally inconsistent play of quarterback Tony Romo sometimes brought Bryant's impact down to earth but for the most part Bryant started to really come into his own. If Bryant can be a little more focused and avoid doing things like running bad routes, he could be the top wide receiver in the league. (hide this)

[Jun 9th] Andrew Garda says: For a while last season, the Texans seemed to have forgotten they had one of the best wide receivers in the game on their team. It eventually evened out. Johnson got his targets and ended up the sixth most productive fantasy wide receiver in many leagues. Johnson has to contend with Arian Foster, who the Texans began to lean on more last year, as well as Matt Schaub's general inconsistency. Still, Johnson is one of the best and he'll get his. The biggest issue owners have to worry about is his lack of touchdowns over the past two years. Hopefully that will change a bit but as long as Foster is a beast in the red zone, AJ will always be a bit short. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Larry Fitzgerald missed the 1,000-yard mark for the first time in five years. The amazing thing isn't that he had a low total—it's that he continually had very good seasons despite atrocious play from the quarterback position for the last few years. You can say a lot of negatives about new quarterback Carson Palmer, but he can definitely find Fitzgerald. If some of the other receivers can step up a little or the run game can be effective, Fitzgerald might have an even better than average (for him) season. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Roddy White keeps saying he's going to take a backseat to Julio Jones and that his numbers will come down. Yet, he's had back-to-back seasons where he topped 1,200 yards total and six seasons in a row, he's caught over 1,000 yards. Matt Ryan can throw the ball to either Jones or White and defenses really can't do much about it. At some point White will slip a bit, though it's clear he still has the desire and ability to be a great receiver. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Health is an issue again for Hakeem Nicks, and right as he enters his free-agency year. Speaking of which, he has skipped OTAs, which he swears has nothing to do with his contract situation. I am actually completely fine with him skipping OTAs. As banged up as he was last year, more rest will only help. If Nicks can stay healthy I have no doubt the numbers will come. All things being equal, he's a worthwhile pick in the middle of the third round and well worth the calculated risk. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Despite some seasons where he was banged up, Marques Colston has had 1,000 yards six of the last seven seasons, including the last four in a row. Clearly one of quarterback Drew Brees' favorite targets Coltson is also his most reliable and has caught 63 percent of the balls thrown his way. Last season, Colston had the second highest yardage and touchdown totals of his career. Brees and the Saints offense should look much better this year with head coach Sean Payton back full time. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: After way too many years with Matt Cassel as quarterback, Dwayne Bowe's life just got much easier. While Alex Smith isn't Joe Montana (even the aging Joe Montana the Chiefs got way back when), he's a solid player who has turned the corner over the last two years and can deliver the ball to a player of Bowe's quality. Bowe is now going to have a competent quarterback throwing him the ball—and is out of excuses for why he's not reaching his potential. You can bet that Smith and new head coach Andy Reid are looking for ways to get the ball into Bowe's hands. Bowe finally seems to have stopped being his own worst enemy and is in an offense which is geared to get him the ball. He should have a great year in Kansas City. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Feeling unappreciated by the New England Patriots, Wes Welker took his talents to the Mile High City, moving from one tremendous quarterback to another. Peyton Manning had two 1,000 yard receivers last season in Eric Decker and Demaryius Thomas, and he throws the ball a lot. He'll find a reliable target in Welker (Super Bowl gaffes notwithstanding), and while Wes won't see the number of targets he did with Brady and the Patriots (over a hundred every year with the team and nearly 200 each of the last two seasons), he will see a significant amount. Welker will work out of the slot, and should find a lot of room to cause chaos as he has two very good receivers to draw coverage. Teams will have to pick their poison when it comes to Welker, Thomas and Decker, and there is no good choice in that bunch. Expect a bit of a regression in his numbers versus the last two years, but overall Welker is poised to have yet another great fantasy season. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Brown suddenly finds himself in charge after having a player across from him who can pull coverage. Brown has Emmanuel Sanders though, who can stretch the field and might be the guy who can get Brown some room to move. Brown will see plenty of targets and should be able to take advantage of them. While he might not put up numbers like Mike Wallace, Brown is a good player to have in your No. 2 slot (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Jennings had a rough year in 2012, losing a ton of time due to injury and his top spot in the offense to a bunch of youngsters. Still wanting to be a No. 1 receiver (and get paid like it), he signed onto the Packers' hated rivals, the Minnesota Vikings. While his best days are clearly behind him and he remains an injury risk, Jennings provides a more consistent vertical threat than Jerome Simpson did last season. Of course, the question remains as to whether or not quarterback Christian Ponder can take advantage of a true vertical threat. If he can—and Jennings stays off the trainer's table—Jennings' value outstrips where you can draft him. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Two years of Cam Newton have really agreed with Smith, who has ripped off two 1,100-plus yard seasons since Newton arrived. His touchdowns remain low, not shocking given the overall struggles of the offense, but that's fine. Smith simply keeps on catching balls thrown his way and there are a lot of them. Smith has been the most targeted receiver in this offense for a long time; the last two years he has seen 267 passes thrown his way—far more than anyone else on the team. Expect that to continue. He'll get a ton of yards and any touchdowns will just be gravy. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: In a point per reception league, I'd see Amendola higher on this list, but for a plain old regular fantasy league, I'm less excited. That's not to say I think he'll do poorly, but it's the difference of a good 80 or 90 catches worth of points. Still, Amendola will replace Wes Welker as Tom Brady's safety net and should see north of 1,000 yards. Less certain are his touchdowns. More than likely they will go to the backfield or the tight ends, though if the injury issues continue there, Amendola will see his chances rise. The other issue is Amendola's propensity for injury, particularly freaky ones like the collarbone dislocation last season. He has the ability, but it won't do anyone any good if he can't stay on the field. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: As with Desean Jackson, how Maclin is used by new head coach Chip Kelly's offense will be interesting to watch. Looking at Maclin's career thus far, it seems as if he has plateaued, not quite able to break the 1,000 mark so far. Now he's in a contract year and has to prove himself. Some of Maclin's issues were certainly related to play-calling and the play of the quarterback position, but Maclin himself has to find a way to adjust and deliver on all that promise. That said, I fully expect Kelly and the Eagles to find ways to take advantage of Maclin's dynamic skill set and get him the ball early and often. (hide this)

[Jun 10th] Andrew Garda says: Someone is going to be left out of the dance for the Green Bay Packers, though there will be enough passes to make even the third option worthwhile for fantasy owners. Jones had a huge 2012, in part because Jordy Nelson and Greg Jennings were both hurt for much of the season. Nelson is healthy and will regain his top spot, and while Jennings is gone, it's more likely Randall Cobb will end up getting most of his targets, not Jones. The upside for Jones is that he will probably remain a big end-zone target. He could lose some targets to Jermichael Finley, but Jones is a more willing blocker and has a more reliable pair of hands, so the impact should be minimal. (hide this)

[Jun 6th] Andrew Garda says: Britt has a tremendous amount of talent, but has spent much of his career hurt (knee surgeries) and arrested. This, in turn, has made the Titans bring in a guy like Kendall Wright who could replace him if either issue ends up never going away. That and Britt's injury issues, plus many off-field problems make him risky, but his upside is pretty good. He's a boom or bust pick who seems like he has busted more than he's boomed. (hide this)

[Jun 6th] Andrew Garda says: Jackson has so much ability held back by so much attitude. Hopefully he can reign in the 'tude because he has the chance to be very productive in new head coach Chip Kelly's up-tempo offense. Jackson can be a bit of a hit or miss as so much of his production came only on vertical routes which the offensive line hasn't always given Eagles quarterbacks the time to deliver on. Of course, which quarterback will we see? The endlessly dinged up Mike Vick? The decent but not special Nick Foles? Or the raw and in need of work Matt Barkley? Who ends up under center and how they look in camp will have a huge impact on Jackson's production. (hide this)

[Jun 6th] Andrew Garda says: Injuries robbed Garcon of a bunch of 2012 games and he's still rehabbing. His shoulder issue seems to be nothing to worry about but Garcon says his foot worries him and that worries me. It's too early to panic, especially with the biggest contenders for his job coming from an aging Santana Moss and an underwhelming Leonard Hankerson. Still, injuries could hurt his value, so it's worth watching. On the other hand, I am not worried about Robert Griffin III being hurt. If Garcon is healthy (Lord knows that's a big "if"), he'll have value with either Griffin or Kirk Cousins throwing the ball. Both will look to him with equal frequency. (hide this)

[Jun 6th] Andrew Garda says: Shorts had a huge 2012, especially considering the disaster which was the Jacksonville offense. Now that Justin Blackmon has been suspended for the first four games of the upcoming season, Shorts is going to be thrust into a bigger than anticipated role. Don't get too carried away because teams will not overlook Shorts this year the way they may have last year. While he will have a great year, expect some up and down spots. (hide this)

[Jun 6th] Andrew Garda says: Moore cracked the 1,000 yards mark for the first time in his career last season, but I don't expect the Saints to play from behind quite as much as they did last year. On top of that Drew Brees can be unpredictable in terms of who he favors with targets. I don't see New Orleans having two 1,000 receivers as they did last year, and if someone is left short, it's going to be Moore, not Marques Colston. (hide this)
