Fantasy Football League-Winning Wide Receivers to Target

Courtland Sutton (DEN)

“Skepticism around the repeatability of Courtland Sutton’s 2024 season means we’re getting excellent value on a receiver who has true top-10 upside. Sutton’s 2024 season was by far his best season, but it’s not his true ceiling. Sutton’s career has been limited by poor quarterback play. After a shaky start, Bo Nix found his groove midseason, and Sutton was WR8 Week 9 through the end of the season. Sutton will be the unquestioned WR1 and will crush his ADP.”

DK Metcalf (PIT)

“Pittsburgh’s D.K. Metcalf is a great value at WR22. The Steelers showed how much they thought of their newly acquired WR1 by shipping off his only target competition in George Pickens to Dallas. Another new addition to their lineup is veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who has a reputation for locking onto his WR1. All those years of high targets and elite production from Davante Adams could be a sign of what’s to come for Metcalf in 2025.”

Jameson Williams (DET)

“Jameson Williams is loaded with league-winning upside. A top-tier draft prospect who worked through a significant injury and a suspension before breaking out in 2024 with a WR19 finish, he’s coming off the board at WR26. We know Detroit will have an adjustment period with Ben Johnson’s departure, but a fresh face calling plays could result in more usage for Williams. There should be no doubt about Jared Goff‘s ability to find Williams, and he has started strong according to training camp reports.”
– Jeff Bell (Footballguys)

“Jameson Williams broke out last year to the tune of 1,001 yards and 7 TDs. He was even better over the 2nd half of the season, averaging 73.4 yards over his final eight games. That’s a full-season pace of 1,247 yards. Williams has room to add target share this year in a Lions offense that might pass a little more if the team isn’t quite as dominant.”
