| Derek Brown FantasyPros | The last time we saw Michael Thomas, he limped to a WR41 finish in fantasy points per game. While this sounds horrendous, much of it is related to the fact he scored zero touchdowns in 2020, as his underlying metrics were still strong. Thomas ranked 24th in yards per route run (minimum 50 targets per PFF) and drew a 27.9% target share in his seven games played. Thomas's health is still up in the air at the time of writing this, with reports that he's still not 100%. With a better supporting receiving class around him now, the Saints could throw the ball more often this season. If Thomas can get back to full strength, he should still be a fulcrum for the New Orleans aerial attack as a target hog. | |
| Wolf of Roto Street Roto Street Journal | 5/15: Still has "a few hurdles" til he's back to full-strength. When he returns, he now faces more tgt competition w/ Olave & Landry added. Starting to feel "busty," but Winston could still force feed if MT Regains form. For now, in this upside-filled tier, I'm avoiding. | |
| Andrew Erickson FantasyPros | Elijah Moore ranked as the fantasy WR2 over his last stretch of six games played. His 16.1 fantasy points per game would have ranked fifth had he continued the production the remainder of the season. Unfortunately his season was cut short due to injuries and COVID-19 implications. The addition of Garrett Wilson makes Moore's second-year ascension less certain as he did not have much target competition during his scorching finish outside of veteran Jamison Crowder. | When Thomas was healthy in 2020 from Weeks 11-14, he commanded a 33% target share, earned a 90.5 PFF receiving grade and averaged an elite 2.86 yards per route run - a mark that bested his career average (2.45). With Thomas now readily available after Round 4, he's the quintessential middle-round WR that could make the massive leap back atop the fantasy leaderboards. |
| Derek Lofland FantasyPros | Moore had a stretch from Week 7 to Week 14 where he tallied 106.1 fantasy points and he was one of the best fantasy receivers in the NFL. If he can build on that rookie season and stay healthy, he is one of the upside fantasy players of 2022. | |
