Summary

Devin Funchess had a breakout third year vaulting into the Top 20 among fantasy wide receivers. Aside from Christian McCaffrey, Funchess dominated the Panthers in targets hauling in 63 catches on 112 targets with 8 touchdowns. The former Wolverine and second round pick came into his own last season strengthened by the loss of Greg Olsen (injured foot) and trade of Kelvin Benjamin to Buffalo. The question now becomes, how will Funchess perform with a healthy Greg Olsen and newcomer D.J. Moore added to the offensive mix? He may not reach 63 catches like 2017, but his touchdown numbers should still stay relatively high. In his three seasons in the league, all with Cam Newton, Funchess has 5, 4 and 8 touchdowns. He will still be a popular red zone target for Newton and should yield decent fantasy numbers as a result. He grew up as a leader last year, including playing through a shoulder injury. Look for that confidence, bravado and contribution to carry over to the 2018 season. (May 18)
