Summary
Which risky unheralded players can quietly become viable fantasy producers? That's what we're here to shed some light on for you today. Eric Decker (00:27) could wind up with sneaky upside if he becomes a Patriot. Fantasy owners would also do well not to sleep on Kelvin Benjamin (15:02), Jamaal Williams (23:34), or Blake Bortles (38:46), among many others. The back end of the show features some very interesting nuggets of information about several offenses fantasy owners will depend upon this season. Those facts produce some intriguing questions, like which wide receiver outside of Larry Fitzgerald will achieve fantasy relevance in the desert (46:20), and is Christian McCaffrey's upside heavily capped (47:18)?
