Fantasy Football: Top 20 Rookie Wide Receivers 16-20

20. player. 15. <p>Coleman is a big wide receiver at 6’6 225lbs and he has the speed to stretch the defense, which is demonstrated in his 4.56 40 yard dash. Coleman will need to develop his route running and get better at catching the football if he wants to play in the NFL. Coleman is a “body catcher”, where he uses his body to cradle the football to make catches. This technique causes him to drop a lot of easy passes. Coleman’s size gives him an advantage against smaller DBs, and he could be a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses. Coleman went undrafted in last year’s draft, which means the Saints don’t have much invested in him and they can cut him at any time.</p><p>Coleman is currently on the practice squad for the Saints, which means he may be on the waiver wire in your dynasty league. I think Coleman is worth a stash on your roster for the offseason. He has a good chance to have his value increase because the Saints are more than likely going to move away from Marques Coleston this offseason, which will create a void in their receiving core. This void will generate a lot of offseason buzz around Coleman, which will give you the opportunity to trade him. If he makes it into the starting lineup for the Saints next year, he could prove to be an impactful weapon for Drew Brees. I would stash him and try to sell high on if he gets any buzz, and try and land a mid round rookie pick, or use him to package up one of your rookie picks.</p>. Wide Receiver. New Orleans Saints. Brandon Coleman

<p>Devin Street is a tall, lanky receiver (6’3 198), who has decent speed and short area quickness for his size. Street tested with a 4.55. 40 yard dash, a 37 inch vertical and a 6.89 3 cone. The vertical and 3 cone are very impressive. Street could potentially be a redzone threat with his height and explosive vertical. Street may have some durability concerns with his thin frame, and he will need to build some upper body strength to be able to beat the jam from DBs.</p><p>Street is going to get the opportunity to fight for the number 2 receiver role across from Dez Bryant. Teammate Terrance Williams has been struggling during the last half of this season, being unable to get open and create separation from the defensive back. This is going to create an opportunity for Street to prove his worth this offseason, and he’s going to be a serious contender to beat out Terrance Williams next year. If Street can win the job next year, he will be very valuable and could be a potential wide receiver 2 in fantasy. Street is worth stashing to see if he can beat Williams next season.</p>. Wide Receiver. Dallas Cowboys. Devin Street. 19. player. 123

54. <p>Huff is a short, speedy receiver from the University of Oregon. He is 5’11 and 206 lbs, and he tested with a 4.51 40 yard dash and a 35.5 inch vertical. Huff is a typical slot receiver with decent speed. He will need to add some strength in the off season to fight of jams from defensive backs. He’s a good fit for the system head coach Chip Kelley likes to run, and he could prove to be a valuable asset to the team if he develops.</p><p>Huff landed in the perfect situation for his skill set. He is in an explosive, pass happy offense where he will grow and develop. Huff is a stash at this point, but he is in a great situation and he has the athleticism to take advantage of it. The hard part about stashing Huff is that it may take a couple of years for him to develop, and his upside may be limited to a wide receiver 3 to a low end wide receiver 2. With Huff’s immaculate situation and his athletic ability, there’s a chance that he could pay off for you long term.</p>. Wide Receiver. Philadelphia Eagles. Josh Huff. 18. player

Wide Receiver. Seattle Seahawks. Paul Richardson. 17. player. 36. <p>Richardson is an explosive deep threat who can take the top off the defense. Richardson tested with a 4.32 40 yard dash, a 37.5 vertical, and a 6.98 3 cone. Even though Richardson has elite speed, he has a very narrow frame and will need to gain a few pounds to have a chance to win physical battles against defensive backs. He also needs to work on his route running, and getting out of his breaks to create separation between him and the DB. Richardson was drafted in the 2nd round (45th overall) by the Seattle Seahawks.</p><p>I don’t like this pick by the Seahawks. I feel that there was better talent on the board at wide receiver when they made this pick. Richardson’s value will be insulated with Seattle for a few years due to the paying a 2nd round pick for him. Richardson is worth stashing at the end of your bench, but if he gets any buzz in the offseason I wouldn’t hesitate in selling him for an additional draft pick.</p>

player. 59. <p>Jarvis Landry on his college tape is very comparable to Odell Beckham, but his combine metrics don’t corroborate this. He tested at the combine with a 4.77 40 yard dash and a 28.5 inch vertical, which are very pedestrian combine metrics. Landry stands at 5’11 and weighs 205 lbs, which is short for a wide receiver. I would like to them be a lot more explosive. Landry has massive hands, 10 1/4 inches, which will help make difficult catches. Landry was drafted in the 2nd round (31st overall) by the Miami Dolphins. So, Landry’s value with his team will last for a few years due to what the Dolphins paid for him.</p><p>Even though Landry isn’t the most explosive wide receiver, he has found a niche working the slot position for the Dolphins. Landry is flying under the radar this season compared to the other wide receivers in his draft class. He has caught 71 passes for 672 yards and 5 touchdowns with one week to go to build upon those statistics. Landry is building great chemistry with QB Ryan Tannehill, and it appears that Landry will be an asset in PPR leagues as a wide receiver 3. I recommend holding Landry on your roster unless you get a trade offer you like out of him like an early 2nd or late first round rookie pick. Landry will have value going forward providing extra depth for your fantasy team, and being a good fill in during the bye weeks.</p>. Wide Receiver. Miami Dolphins. Jarvis Landry. 16
