Scoring is 0.8 PPR in my league, so as of now, my rankings are as follows...

1) C. Johnson
2) D. Bryant
3) D. Thomas
4) A. Brown
5) A.J. Green
6) J. Jones
7) B. Marshall

Calvin is the obvious #1, I've got Dez and Demaryius neck and neck for #2/#3, followed by A. Brown at #4. Green, Jones, and Marshall interchangeable at #5/#6/#7.

I see Dez having a big year with his new OC/Passing Coordinator and Demaryius with a big year as well, but a step back from last year with E. Sanders now in the mix at Denver.

Thoughts on Antonio Brown with E. Sanders gone? Will Julio thrive with Gonzalez gone and stay healthy?

I agree about Dez and would move Julio above Brown IMO but with Thomas putting up those stats with Decker I highly doubt Sanders will affect his output. Denver's pass catchers have the most to lose from Manning's regression from last year's season. It will be hard for Manning to come close to that again.

I feel Julio could be set for a monster year, but I still have some doubts. Good to see others high on him as well.

Anyone else high on Antonio Brown this year? I think he's gonna rake in the targets and receptions

He's my numero 4 receiver in PPR formats. He also returns punts. Ran one back last year.

I like Brown too. Kinda splitting hairs with these guys.

Let's factor in there are only 2 WRs in history that have caught 110 balls in back to back years. So expecting a duplicate year like that may not be reality.

Even with a slight tail off, say he catches 95 balls, he'll be a top 10 WR. With his size that is why I rank him a little lower than the other guys. It's hard for a guy like that to repeat. I would also guess they'd like to be more balanced then last year. Big Ben threw for a career high in attempts. They had trouble running the ball because their line was banged up

Interesting stat to think about, but Marshall has more receptions and more 100 reception seasons over the past 5 years than Johnson.

I tend to think Johnson is slightly over-rated in comparison to the others on the list. Not to mention he is starting to show wear and tear.

But I am worried about Calvin's knee.

That would have put him 8th last year in PPR.

Lower if you league doesn't give return TDs to individual players
