Josh Reynolds

Did the draft pick of Van Jefferson affect Josh Reynolds' role as the No. 3 receiver in the offense? Jefferson fits more of the Brandin Cooks mold than Reynolds, which is where there's some hesitance to draft Reynolds in 2020. However, we do have a history that shows when he is in the starting lineup, he produces. In the 14 games he's seen four-plus targets, he's totaled 46 receptions for 613 yards and seven touchdowns. There's a chance he's being underdrafted, but there's also a chance that he remains the No. 4 receiver on the team.

Josh Reynolds a dynamic deep-ball threat, cemented as starting WR for Rams

Rams WR Josh Reynolds has cemented himself as a starting WR for the Rams due to his ability as a dynamic deep-ball threat.

The fourth-year WR out of Texas A&M has really proved himself to Rams head coach Sean McVay in his three seasons in Los Angeles, so much so that the Rams were willing to part ways with WR Brandin Cooks just last month. “We would not have made the move on Brandin Cooks had it not been for the confidence we have in Josh Reynolds,” McVay said. After posting just 21 catches for 326 yards and one TD in 2019, Reynolds is poised to make more noise in 2020 as a full-time starter next to Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods. In fact, there were times last season down the stretch that Reynolds played ahead of Kupp when the Rams went with 12 personnel as their base offense. He’s currently ranked #86 in FantasyPros consensus WR rankings, but could be an interesting sleeper candidate this season.
