Hard to peg a late draft pick as a league winner but some guys I think will outperform ADP by a lot

DJ Chark- undrafted in 10 teams, will be primary deep and redzone threat for what I anticipate will be a better than average rookie QB

John Metchie- skillset reminds me of Amon-Ra. Could become that security blanket for rookie QB.

Tank Bigsby- Talented back that’s an injury away from a full workload and could end up getting the lions share of goal line Carrie’s as the year progresses anyway

Donovan People Jones- Undrafted but look what healthy Will Fuller did with prime Deshaun. DPJ was a viable play late last year with a bad Deshaun

Alec Pierce- just think he’s a freakish athlete that could make that year 2 leap

Irv Smith- if he’s stays healthy he will be a top 5 TE with cincy.

Damien Harris- really good redzone back his whole career. Don’t see how he doesn’t pile up touchdowns in that Buffalo offense. They don’t have another back that’s suited for goal line work and I don’t think they’ll feel the need to use allen as much down there given harris skillset

Rashad Penny- again, depends on health, but he’ll be behind the best offensive line in the league in an offense loaded with other weapons. A primary back here is ripe for a huge season

Cordarrelle Patterson- He’s still the #2 or #3 most talented player on that offense. They are going to get him touches and he’s not close to being drafted

I think the offense they run is going to be perfect for him. Lots of deep drags, crosses, and iso streaks that will let him run away from less athletic corners.

Richardson’s accuracy is the obvious wild card. But his deep ball accuracy has never really been the same issue that his short/intermediate accuracy has been. So you take his top 1% arm talent and combine it with the playbook of Steichen and you have an absolutely dream combo for Pierce’s skill set. Still has to show up, but every advantage is there.

He might still only average 4-5 catches a game, but he could average 75 yards and 0.6 TDs a game to go with it.
