Summary

Wide Receiver Rank: #18   
Overall: #56


Having Cam Newton as his starting quarterback was one of the best things to happen to Smith's career. Smith topped 1,000 yards for the first time since 2008. He finished with more than 1,300 yards, which was the third time he topped that total in his 11-year career. Smith has six 100-yard games. He was a little up and down in the offense, having fewer than 50 yards five times but had enough big games to make up for some of his down showings. And his erratic performances should be fewer once Newton gets more seasoning in the NFL. Even at age 33, Smith remains one of the top big-play threats in the NFL. He hasn't shown much signs of slowing down just yet. He remains a dependable starter in an emerging offense with big-play ability. Smith is a small target, but has great hands and surprising strength. He just makes plays with the ball in his hands.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Smith won't come nearly as cheap this season. He isn't a sure thing from week to week but can have the huge game any given week because of his ability and the offense he plays. Smith should have another 1,000-yard season and eight or so touchdowns. Consider him an elite No. 2 fantasy receiver, capable of producing like a No. 1 many weeks. His consistency knocks his value down a little.

Notes

Carolina Panthers WR Steve Smith's contract extension is a three-year deal with the team holding an option for the fourth year and could be worth as much as $37.8 million. The deal includes $16.8 million in guaranteed money. Smith received a $10 million signing bonus. In addition to the signing bonus, he'll also earn $1 million in base salary. Smith had been scheduled to earn $7.75 million in the final year of his contract. The new deal gives Smith more money, but he also frees up significant salary cap room for the Panthers, who had less than $500,000 available before this deal.

We felt like Steve made it very clear that he wanted to finish career as a Panther. We're glad he did.'
