2016 first-round wide receiver Laquon Treadwell has been working as the starting slot receiver in OTAs. Entering the third year of his rookie deal, Treadwell has caught just 21 balls and will be competing with veteran Kendall Wright for No. 3 receiver duties. (Star Tribune )
Fantasy Impact:
Treadwell has battled injuries and made no impact after being selected with the No. 23 pick of the 2016 NFL Draft. At 6-2, 215, Treadwell fits the profile that John DeFilippo favors from his wideouts, but Treadwell will need a strong training camp to hold off Wright. Whoever wins the slot role could have substantial fantasy value, as Kirk Cousins is known to spread the ball around.
