Wide Receiver Rank: #3 Overall: #19
Hamstring injuries plagued Johnson last season, missing nine games. But he produced his usual big numbers when healthy, having 33 catches for 492 yards in seven games. If you project those numbers out for a full season, Johnson finishes with 75 receptions for 1,125 yards and five touchdowns. Those numbers are still down for Johnson but he was less than 100 percent for some of the games he played, which hurt his numbers. Before last season, three straight 1,000-yard seasons. He also has three seasons with 100-plus receptions. Johnson turns 31 before the season starts but should continue to play at a high level. He hasn't started to fade just yet. Johnson is the go-to option in the Texans' offense. Johnson is the complete package at receiver. He can run, but also has great size. Johnson isn't afraid to make the tough catch and has the speed to stretch the field to make big plays.

Johnson has yet to score double-digit touchdowns in his career, which hurts his fantasy value. He also hasn't played a full season two straight years. His value is down a bit but he remains a legit No. 1 fantasy receiver but isn't the first to take off the board this year. He is a top-10 option. Johnson can get 1,300 or so yards and eight touchdowns in an explosive offense, barring injury. |
