Here’s our 2023 fantasy football outlook for Davante Adams.

Nobody boasted a higher target share than Davante Adams in 2022. The ex-Packers WR showed the entire world he didn’t need Aaron Rodgers, hanging a league-leading 32.3% target share while finishing third in fantasy points per game (16.8). He even showed that he could thrive without Derek Carr, catching seven balls for 153 yards and two TDs in a Week 17 contest with Jarrett Stidham under center.

The obvious concerns about Adams are his age (he will be 31 in December) and how he will gel with injury-prone Jimmy Garoppolo as his new QB. But Adams showed zero signs of aging, with the league’s fifth-highest yards per route run (2.45) as PFF’s second-highest graded WR. I also don’t believe the fit with Jimmy G is as poor as many may lead on. Garoppolo is an accurate quarterback – sixth in completion rate last season – which should allow Adams to vacuum up targets and add yardage after the catch.

I also fully expect any QB issues to be mitigated to some extent by sheer volume, as the depth chart is barren behind Adams and Jakobi Meyers for targets. Hunter Renfrow is expected to be traded or cut by June 1.
