The season will be a success if Ryan Tannehill reverts back to the QB who was one of the league's best comeback players in 2019. But new coach Brian Daboll should make the Giants' offense more functional. I still have low expectations for this team as their biggest upgrade is head coach Doug Pederson. Richard Savill (Fantasy Six Pack), Travis Etienne (RB JAC) The Giants will move on from quarterback Daniel Jones after this season, shifting their focus to the draft prep of Young. He has been explosive and fast and will be deployed on backfield releases, screens and flex from the formation to create favorable matchups.

Fantasy managers who drafted these players last season know very well how . Liz Loza: Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Kansas City Chiefs The chemistry with Carr is real, and so is Adams' preternatural ability to get open and come down with the tough catch. Could the Cowboys look at a running back in first round again? Liz Loza: Mo Alie-Cox, Indianapolis Colts Now he will have Tyreek Hill, who I believe is the most influential non-QB offensive player, along with Jaylen Waddle. -- Eric Karabell, There might be some trepidation among bettors when making predictions on the win totals of Super Bowl losers. -- Adam Teicher, Player on hot seat: Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB, Edwards-Helaire hasn't been a bust, and he is in no danger of losing his job right now, but he hasn't had the expected impact of a first-round draft pick. -- Bowen, After taking the long route to an NFL starting job -- from undrafted free agent to being signed by the Packers off of the Jaguars' practice squad -- Lazard has a shot at being the Packers' WR1 now that Davante Adams is gone.

In his final two seasons at Clemson, he was a three-down workhorse, ranking first and 20th in yards after contact per attempt and 14th and fourth in yards per route run (minimum 100 rushing attempts, 20 targets per PFF). Hill alone just opens up so much near the line of scrimmage as you always must worry about him getting behind the defense, meaning teams will pull the safeties back and have them line up deeper. -- Cronin, Fantasy breakout candidate: Justin Fields, QB, Fields has an opportunity to produce lower-end QB1 numbers in a new offensive system that will cater to his dual-threat traits. Daniel Dopp: Derek Carr, Las Vegas Raiders London is a big-bodied receiver who can win 50/50 balls and be utilized in the red/end zone. How long will it take? But he also is in a crowded Cleveland backfield led by Pro Bowl rusher Nick Chubb. But don't let the new kids make you forget about the flashes we saw from Moore as a second-round pick in 2021. Olave's talent and position with the Saints, who desperately need help at wide receiver, certainly justify selection at his ADP. Liz Loza: Mike Gesicki, Miami Dolphins The new regime has already declined his fifth-year option, meaning Jones is a free agent at the end of the season. He had 10.5 sacks and made the Pro Bowl as a rookie in 2019 but has had just 10 sacks in the 24 games since.

Kyle Soppe: Javonte Williams, Denver Broncos Joe Kaiser: Ken Walker III, Seattle Seahawks -- Doug Kezirian.

The running back might not ultimately be what he was in his rookie year (1,307 rushing yards), but this is the most explosive he has looked in a while.
