Outlook DeVonta Smith
Ready for Liftoff as the Focal Point of the Eagles' New-Look Passing Game
Following the high-profile departure of veteran teammates, DeVonta Smith enters the season as the undisputed lead receiver in Philadelphia. Our models project him to lead a reformed receiving corps that now features young talent like rookie Makai Lemon and Dontayvion Wicks. This shift positions Smith for a massive target share.
Our projections peg Smith for 82 receptions, 1,084 yards, and six touchdowns, equating to a robust 227.6 fantasy points in PPR formats. This anticipated breakout is heavily supported by his track record, having secured over 1,000 yards in three of his last four seasons.
Looking at draft trends, fantasy managers are catching on. Smith's ADP has steadily climbed from the mid-40s in May to 38.5 as of late June. Even with this rising draft cost, our data suggests he remains an outstanding value as a high-end WR2 with WR1 upside.

Outlook Travis Hunter
Unmatched Two-Way Potential and Injury Recovery Make This Jaguars Dynamic Weapon a Fascinating Late-Round Dart Throw
Coming off November LCL surgery, Hunter was limited in spring workouts but is targeting a full training camp return. Head coach Liam Coen confirmed the athletic marvel will still play both ways, operating as a cornerback while occasionally lining up behind Parker Washington at slot receiver to maximize his explosive playmaking ability.
Last season, Hunter played just seven games, catching 28 of 45 targets for 298 yards. Our projections slate him for 38 receptions, 447 yards, and three touchdowns. While his defensive duties might cap his overall offensive snaps, his raw talent keeps his weekly ceiling exceptionally high for fantasy managers.
Hunter's ADP has stabilized around pick 169 after a brief early-June spike. The market is understandably cautious of his health and workload distribution in 1.0 PPR formats. At this bargain draft cost, our models see him as a highly appealing, zero-risk stash who offers massive late-season tournament upside.
