rre Stevenson still going chased by Carl Stevenson into the end zone 64 yds for no England touchdown stranger things have happened than a fourth year re breakout rre Stevenson's thirdd year in the NFL was marred by injury and a woefully inefficient offense two things that looked to be improved as we headed to 2024 the Patriots signed off on a bill of health earlier in this off season giving the running back a 4-year $36 million contract that would have ranked third in aav among free agents by only Josh Jacobs and saquan Barkley New England registered only 88 offensive plays from within the Red Zone the lowest numbers since at least 2019 this led to a 31st ranked offense and the second fewest Rush attempts for within the opponent's 5 yard line only eight things may have been better had Stevenson himself not missed time but it seemed like they were cursed to wallow in poor play regardless who was taking staps behind M Jones Beyond a simple regression to the mean that should give the team more looks near the end zone they took Drake May with a third overall selection and added OC Alex band Pelt which should add some dynamism to the offense they also added two wide receivers Jaylen PK in the second round and Javon Baker in the fourth round as well as Kaden Wallace and leaden Robinson to add some competition to an underperforming offensive line Stevenson was the rb13 back in 2022 on a team that featured Jones and bayy zappia quarterback so there's precedent to him being a fringe rb1 in a backfield that will run through him go looking deep Jameson Williams, WR DET wants it all Jameson Williams looking for the ball got it touchdown it's been a wild first two seasons for the former Alabama receiver after teing his ACL on a long reception in the national championship game Williams was forced to miss the vast majority of his rookie season with his only catch being a 41 yard touchdown he only ran 37 routes through that 2022 season but L poised to make a splash as a sophomore on what looked to be an ascending offense things took a turn for the worst when it was announced that Williams would be suspended for the first four games of the 2023 season due to violating the NFL's gambling policy when he returned to the field in week five the Lions more or less were using him in a rotational role over the next nine games he ran less than 20 routes in a crew less than 20 yards in six of them while being held catchless in two the first real flashes of success finally came between weeks 15 and through the playoffs including a touchdown in the NFC championship game in that stretch run Williams accounted for 25 targets nearly doubling his career total up to that point while finishing second on the team with this 25% air yard share and led Detroit with the 14.7 average depth of Target though the corresponding production wasn't anything incredible that usage should give us an idea of how the team views their former first round pick moving forward in the summertime coach presser had coach Dan Campbell had this to say quote if you said give me one player that is the most improved this off season jbo would be the guy right now now he's on a mission and I'm just going to leave it at that end quote optimistic coach be runs rampant through the preseason but the team said just as much with the roster moves as Campbell has been saying this off season through the NFL draft the Lions didn't spend a single day one or day two selection on the offensive side of the ball and when they eventually did they invested in the offensive line and a running back who worked with the safeties at the NFL scouting combine on top of that they allowed Josh Reynolds to walk in free agency with Jameson Williams set the lineup in two wide receiver sets with a moon Ross Brown for all the knee biting quotes and perceptions that the lions are a run first team they finished 2023 with the ninth most passing attempts and the second most passing yards while maintaining a League average pass to run ratio in neutral situations they also just signed quarterback jar gof to a 4-year 212 million dollar extension in May so they presumably have no issues running the offense through him Williams is set up to make a fantasy impact that we've been waiting for since he was taken as the 12th overall selection he is currently on the cusp of the ninth and 10th round is coming off boards as the wide receiver Luke Musgrave, TE GB 49 love oh two fs and he finds musr for what might be the knockout punch on the first touchdown of the rookie career while no one is confusing Luke musgrave's rooky season with that of Stam lores it doesn't mean that there weren't some encouraging signs for the Packers sophomore his usage in the downfield attack of what would become a fantastic passing game is one of those signs of encouragement as evidenced in it's five game spam between week nine in the wild Card round of the playoffs in which he had three catches of 25 plus yards he only played five games in that span because because of an AB injury that landed him on the IR clearing the way for fellow rookie Tucker craft to show what he could do as the unquestioned tight end one the shoe may now be on the other foot at least for the beginning of the 2024 season with crafter's Peck earlier this offseason even if he is at full health in week one which seems like a bit of a stretch there's a chance that he will need some time to recover in season resulting in Musgrave taking a stand as the number one option the other elephant in the room here is the loaded wide receiver room which is already doing a great job of cannibalizing itself to the point that there is no quote true wide receiver one it's certainly going to create a risky floor for Musgrave on a week- toe basis but if he can flash his big play ability with enough consistency he'll be a great boom bust option that offers more upside than most of the players going in this ADP Javonte Williams, RB DEN range javante Williams takes the hand off and Williams nice second effort still going javante Williams carrying Defender javante Williams will be one more year removed from his 2022 ACL tear as he heads into 2024 in 2021 Williams was a fantasy stud as a rookie earning 254 opportunities in route to the overall RB 17 finish in half PPR leagues though he is a part of a convoluted backfield he can take over as the number one role he can allow the rest of the death chart to fight for scraps that said he did look like a shell of his former self last season or 3.6 yards per carry and a 46th ranked 2.71 yards created after contact his subsequent 9.7 half PPR points per game landed him as the RB 32 boosted by his 55 targets he may have rushed back to the field before he was ready but that didn't stop the team from adding audri ese in the draft while retaining both samaji peran and jalo mlin some spark of good news came through this week though at the team did finally release perine this was after the team allowed javante seven touches in the preseason before pulling the plug and Al but guarantees a one-w punch with himself and mlin this also opens up more passing game usage as per Ry logged 53 Targets on 218 routes run last season on an offense that targeted the running back position at the highest clip this was despite the Broncos quarterbacks dropping back 604 times the fourth lowest Mark in the league there's no doubt that we have an uous backfield on our hands but it has pushed Davonte Williams down into the eighth round I'm not in love with the situation but taking Shawn Peyton's rb1 that deep at a draft is a risk I'm willing to take the Jayden Daniels, QB WAS Washington Commander select Jaden Daniels quarterback LSU this has just gone from an unwatchable offensive product to must C TV this guy's effortless throwing the ball you know again I I I know his running gets a lot of hype and all of that but damn is he made to throw a football in the pocket yeah I'm excited to see what J Daniels can do there after years of cycling through middle of the road veteran options the maners used their second overall selection to grab Daniels a dynamic rusher with a huge arm Daniels provides an upgrade for incumbent Terry mclen and makes the likes of diami brown and olami zakas a little more interesting the 2024 draft class also brings Luke mcaffrey and tight end Ben cinate Daniel's mix of playmaking ability with both his legs and arm mixing him intriguing fantasy piece in his rookie year and Beyond over his two years at LSU Daniels LED all FBS quarterbacks in rushing twice due from 57 touchdowns to only seven receptions and received a slew of awards namely the Heisman Trophy in 2023 Daniels consistently tested defenses down the field with his legs accounting for 90 plays of 20 plus yards last season while leading draft eligible quarterbacks with a 69.1% adjusted completion rate on passes 20 or more yards down the field when Daniels was asked to create independently he was more than capable he crewed 512 yards and six touchdowns on QB draws and QB design runs but the dagger came when he could escape the pocket on passing play plays that was never more evident than an LSU's match up against a stout Alabama defense last season when he ran for 163 yards and six first downs being given the keys of the car right off the bat won't always yield fantasy success look at Bryce Young's rookie season last year but the commanders have a fairly good infrastructure to invite Daniels into unlike what the Panthers had last season Terry mclen is a legitimate threat at all areas of the field while zackerz and rookie benon it combined as a perfectly capable tight end Duo rookie Luke mcaffrey should grow into a nice slot option while Austin Eckler will look to bounce back into one of the best pass catching backs in the league after an injury late in 2023 the commanders were one of the best Ling spots among the quarterback needy teams and Jaden Daniels has a nice infrastructure of pass catchers and an improving line Daniels has some work to do at the next level including working through his reads and sliding from time to time but it shouldn't take long for him to be putting up crooked numbers in fantasy box scores fantasy managers are understandably trep about rookie rushing quarterbacks after Anthony Richardson only logged four games last season but Daniels is currently coming off draft boards as the qb2 in the ninth or 10th round it's a perfectly reasonable price to pay for his upside
