Fantasy Impact:

LaFleur has spent the past three years as the Rams offensive coordinator and figures to bring a lot of what he learned under Sean McVay to the Cardinals offense. Wilson is expected to line up off the line of scrimmage which will allow him to move more freely. Wilson exploded last season when Marvin Harrison Jr. missed time. The question remains what his production will be heading into a full season with Harrison healthy, but he should be put in a more favorable situation.
