Fantasy Football Draft Outlook

Johnny Wilson, Ray-Ray McCloud and Jalen Nailor are their team’s respective WR3s.

Rookie WR Malik Washington contributed a 21-yard rush on an end around while operating as the Dolphins’ primary kick returner. Why is this important? Because it means that Washington will be ACTIVE on game days – similar to what happened to De’Von Achane during his rookie year. While Odell Beckham Jr. continues to deal with an injury (on the PUP list), Washington has the chance to stake his claim for a larger role in Miami’s offense.

Other players who could also benefit from being their team’s kick returners: Anthony Gould, Will Shipley, Parker Washington, Malachi Corley, Cedrick Wilson and Emmanuel Wilson.
