Top options

1. WR Josh Doctson: Give up on Doctson if you want but he’s still the same guy that warranted a 1st round pick. He missed his rookie season with an Achilles injury and caught passes from five different QBs the past two seasons. Enter Dwayne Haskins, a big arm pocket passer who threw 50 touchdowns at Ohio State and isn’t afraid to give his guys a 50-50 chance.

At 6-foot-2 with a 42-inch vertical, Doctson will be the main big-play red-zone threat that can lead to a double-digit touchdown season and a huge sleeper in a lot of leagues.

2. RB Derrius Guice: Guice was supposed to be the guy last year during his rookie season, instead, a torn ACL in his first preseason game ended his season before it could begin.

After a year of recovering, Guice is healthy and looking to show he is not only the starting RB of the future but the starting RB now. A healthy Guice and a healthy offensive line can put up good fantasy numbers. However, with four running backs in the mix and only one ball to touch, Guice will have to show early why he deserves the bulk of touches to turn into a guy with RB2 potential.
