Fantasy Football: Best and worst value picks by round (1-8)

Round 4

Best: Calvin Ridley – ADP 44 (4.08)

I wrote an article about all the reasons you should draft Calvin Ridley this year. To sum it up: he’s been incredibly efficient with his targets, he received heavy volume after Mohamed Sanu got traded last year, he could become the 1b on a high-volume passing offense, and he’s being drafted later than players with more risk than him. He’s currently the WR17 off the board but has a great shot at being a WR1. I value him as a mid-late third round pick that you can get in the mid-late fourth round.
Other Contenders: Robert Woods (4.09)

Worst: Courtland Sutton – ADP 46 (4.10)

Courtland Sutton is being drafted two spots behind Ridley, but doesn’t carry nearly the upside Ridley does. The Broncos are a run-first team, just drafted Jerry Jeudy in the first round, and many expect a breakout season from Noah Fant. Sutton’s absurd 24.7% target share only yielded him 124 targets last year, which was his absolute ceiling. I don’t doubt his talent, but he’s not going to get fourth round caliber work this year.
Other Contenders: Zach Ertz
