Ellis Johnson True North Fantasy Football | I don't think you can say anything bad about this organization. Not only would their fans make it dangerous, but you would also be incorrect based on their off-season. The team should remain one of the best in the league and if anything Hurts may rush for fewer touchdowns, increasing the potential passing production. As a result, Smith is primed for another great season as the second option behind Brown. | Ridley is currently the 20th receiver off the board in drafts. Despite releasing an amazing story about his journey in the NFL, courtesy of Sports Illustrated, it's hard to see him have a lot of success this season. Although I hope I am wrong with that statement, the 2018 26th overall pick has not played an NFL game since Week Seven of 2021. Now on a new team, he projects to be the top target for Trevor Lawrence. There is a world this offense is electric and Ridley is amazing, however, at his ADP I'd rather take a shot on receivers like Mike Williams, Chris Godwin, and Brandon Aiyuk, all of which are going well after him. |
Andrew Erickson FantasyPros | It was a true 1A-1B WR situation in Philadelphia last season. DeVonta Smith actually finished the season with more routes run than A.J. Brown (his 96% route participation ranked fourth overall) and the two were basically even split in target share (27% vs 29%). Smith's high-end usage resulted in a backend fantasy WR1 finish in his second season with an average of 12.3 points per game (16th). The "Slim Reaper" also ended the year 14th in yards per route run. | |
Brandon Funston The Athletic | Enjoyed a fantastic finish to 2022, clocking in at WR2 in half-PPR from Weeks 13-18 (behind only teammate A.J. Brown) | |
Derek Brown FantasyPros | The Eagles utilized DeVonta Smith in a different role in 2022 than during his rookie season, and the results were beautiful. In 2021 Smith was ninth in deep targets and sixth in aDOT among wide receivers as Philly rolled him out a field stretcher. While Smith was solid in this role, his upside as a zone-destroying intermediate-level threat was seized in 2022. Smith still finished 19th in deep targets among wideouts, but his aDOT dropped to 9.9 (65th) as he began to gobble up targets. Smith was 13th in targets (136), 14th in target share (27.0%), and 19th in target per route run rate (26.2%). He finished with 95 receptions (ninth-best), 1,196 receiving yards (eighth), and seven total touchdowns (14th) as the WR14 in fantasy. Smith was 18th in PFF receiving grade and yards per route run (minimum 50 targets, per PFF). With a consolidated target tree and an ascending quarterback talent in Philly, Smith is poised to be a solid WR2 again in 2023. | The last time we saw Calvin Ridley, he was still among the best receivers in the league. In 2021, Ridley was seventh in target share (27.4%), fourth in air yard share (40.0%), and fifth in route win rate. Ridley and Ryan just couldn't find their old chemistry, as Ryan's skills were profoundly diminished. Ridley was subjected to backup quarterback-level target quality that ranked 63rd. His catchable target rate was only 71.2% (73rd). While it's worth pondering what version of Ridley we'll see returning from hiatus, don't for a second think he was playing poorly in 2021 despite the fantasy results not being there. With Trevor Lawrence taking a huge step forward in 2022, Ridley will be a WR2 next season with WR1 upside. |
Wolf of Roto Street Roto Street Journal | 3/7: Officially reinstated, which minimizes the risk. Congested situation but he could easily be the Alpha here in an explosive, ascending offense Last time we saw Ridley for a full season, he was a Top-5 WR & looked like the next great young stud WR. Trevor Lawrence has looked phenomenal during the 2022 second half, and if Zay Jones / Christian Kirk can put up these kind of numbers... Ridley could go BONKERS in 2023. | |
Derek Lofland FantasyPros | Smith was stellar in 2022, finishing with 88 receptions for 1,129 yards and 7 TDs as the second receiver in the offense behind A.J. Brown. Smith should be a WR2 with upside on one of the most exciting offenses in the NFL. |
