We’ve now given you the top 31 QB’s, and the top 40 RB’s. This list will cover the top 49 wide receivers. Our final rankings will cover the best tight ends.

Here are the wide recievers

1. Randy Moss, New England Patriots
   98 catches, 1,493 yards, 23 TDs

   After two seasons in Oakland where it was obvious he was just going through the motions, it would have been hard to predict the kind of season that Moss had in New England. But he and Tom Brady seemed to form a chemistry right away (as two great talents often will), and Moss showed everyone that he still had plenty in the tank. He is a freakish talent when he is applying himself, and seeing that they lost the Super Bowl, I don’t see Moss’ motivation being any lower this season. The law of averages says he’s not going to score 23 times, but he will approach 100 catches again, and the yardage should be there as well. Definitely the first receiver off the board.

2. Terrell Owens, Dallas Cowboys
   81 catches, 1,355 yards, 15 TDs

   T.O. will always be a drama queen. Whether it be whining his way out of San Francisco, Baltimore, or Philly, you can always count on him to make headlines off the field. Unlike many other primadonnas like him, Owens always shows up on Sunday and gives his all. He may get a case of the dropsies from time to time, but he’s big, he’s fast, and he wants the ball. In two seasons in Dallas he has scored 28 touchdowns, and that is where your fantasy bread is buttered, in the endzone. With his relationship with Tony Romo continuing to be solid on the field, expect Owens to be the focal point of the Cowboys passing attack again, and I expect more catches, more yards, and similar touchdown numbers.

3. Reggie Wayne, Indianapolis Colts
   104 catches, 1,510 yards, 10 TDs

   Somewhere over the last two years, Reggie Wayne went flying by Marvin Harrison as the best receiver in Indy. Although his touchdowns remain similar, he caught 18 more passes in 2007, and gained 200 more yards than he did in 2006. And as long as they have that Peyton guy throwing him the ball in an offense that is pass first, Wayne should be looking at another year of 100 catches and double-digit scores. It is time to stop calling him the best number two receiver in fantasy, he is now the man for the Colts.

4. Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona Cardinals
   101 catches, 1,412 yards, 10 TDs

   He’s had some trouble with some nagging little injuries the past couple of seasons, but Fitzgerald is one of the best. He’s big, he’s young, and he knows how to go up and get the ball. Fitzy is also helped by having another legitimate receiving threat across the field in Anquan Boldin, and when it comes to the red zone it is almost always Fitzgerald that they throw to. The Cardinals obviously think the world of him, as they uncharacteristically opened up the pocketbook and gave Larry a $40 million contract extension, while Boldin is still waiting to get paid. He is one guy that already puts up good numbers that I can see a possible nice increase in 2008, he’s one of my best picks.

5. Braylon Edwards, Cleveland Browns
   80 catches, 1,289 yards, 16 TDs

   After being the number three pick in the draft in 2004, Edwards had been viewed as somewhat of a bust because his statistics were just not what anyone expected they would be after his collegiate career. It’s time to take that Bust tag off and save it for someone else, because Braylon broke out in a big way last season. Perhaps it was the lack of talent at the QB position that held him back these past couple years, but he and Derek Anderson were certainly on the same page. Edwards is a big dude, and really knows how to stretch the field for the long pass. I expect that he will catch even more passes in 2008, but another season of 16 touchdowns might be a little too much to expect. I think most fantasy owners would take 12, and that’s what I expect he will get.

6. Andre Johnson, Houston Texans
   60 catches, 851 yards, 8 TDs (9 games)

   Johnson was on pace for another huge season in 2007 after his breakout the previous year, but was derailed by a knee injury that seemed to linger longer than expected. Now that the Texans are actually turning themselves into a legitimate team, the sky is the limit for Johnson as long as he can stay healthy. He is the focal point of the entire offense, and should be targeted at least ten times a game. He had 100 catches in 2006, and was well on the way to that number again last year, so no reason to think that he can’t get over the century mark with 10-13 scores.

7. Steve Smith, Carolina Panthers
   87 catches, 1,002 yards, 7 TDs

   Smith is the motivation for all the short guys out there, that you don’t have to be 6′3″ to be a star in the NFL. At 5′ 9″ Smith proves that all you really need is to be really fast. So if you are short and slow, then your dreams are destroyed. Smith is a pretty amazing talent in that every week the defense knows that he is going to get the ball, yet they still can’t seem to stop this guy. He has caught 80+ passes for 1,000+ yards for three consecutive seasons, but 2007 took a mighty turn for the worse after QB Jake Delhomme went down to injury. Which is understandable seeing that the next option was David Carr and we all know how that went. His hot temper has gotten him suspended for the first two games of the season, after punching teammate Ken Lucas, but he will be back after that brief suspension. Smith’s shining star has definitely fallen from the consensus #1 fantasy wideout, but he still will put up good numbers for you and is still a legitimate first receiver for a fantasy team.

8. TJ Houshmanzadeh, Cincinnati Bengals
   112 catches, 1,143 yards, 12 TDs

   His numbers have increase in each of the past three seasons, but they got to be so good in 2007, that you can’t expect them to go much higher than this. Housh finally got the national attention that he has deserved, as he tied for the league lead in receptions. With the drama that is Chad Johnson on the other side, Housh often doesn’t get the other team’s best corner on him. A former 7th round draft pick, T.J. has turned himself into one of the most reliable fantasy wideouts in the game, as he generally is a possession receiver, but when he gets in the open field, he knows how to make people miss. You can safely expect another 100 catch season, as the Bengals as a team will bounce back from another disappointing season, and Housh will be a big reason why.

9. Chad Johnson, Cincinnati Bengals
   93 catches, 1,440 yards, 8 TDs

   Houshmandzadeh’s guy on the other side, Johnson has been a whirlwind of controversy this offseason. He has threatened to hold out, he has threatened to sit out the season, he has threatened to play Arena Football, but my money says he will be in Cincinnati when the season starts. He has gone from funny with his antics and outspoken ways, to kind of annoying really quick He has been great at getting catches and yards, but he has been lacking in the touchdown department recently. I know eight touchdowns looks good, but they all came in just four games, and three were in the first two weeks. That sort of inconsistency will drive fantasy owners crazy, because touchdowns are what you need. He went on a similar binge in ‘06 when his seven touchdowns all came in four games. It is nice when he scores that two or three touchdown game, but then he disappears from the endzone for weeks at a time. Still a legitimate number one receiver on a fantasy team.

10. Torry Holt, St. Louis Rams
    93 catches, 1,189 yards, 7 TDs

    Once the most consistent receiver in the NFL, you can start to see age and injury starting to take their toll. Although he didn’t really miss much time, Holt’s knees have been a disaster the past couple of seasons, and at age 31, he is starting to lose a step. Funny, that even with the disaster that was the Rams 2007 season, Holt’s numbers are still pretty solid. He still should be good for 85-90 catches and over 1,000 yards, and he is still their go to guy, so his scores should stay around the same. He’s still a great receiver, just a tick down from where he used to be.

11. Marques Colston, New Orleans Saints
    98 catches, 1,202 yards, 11 TDs

    One of the up and coming young wideouts in the league, Colston busted out in 2006 after being a 7th round draft pick. He had a great increase in numbers from his first season to his second, as he caught 28 more balls, almost 200 more yards, and three more touchdowns. With the gunslinging style of Drew Brees and the Saints, I wouldn’t be shocked to see his numbers bump up just a little bit more, to over 100 catches and 13-14 scores.

12. Anquan Boldin, Arizona Cardinals
    71 catches, 853 yards, 9 TDs (12 games)

    He is incredibly unhappy in Arizona apparently, but I would guess that he will still be there when the season starts. He is the ultimate possession receiver, but is capable of breaking a big one now and then. Boldin’s great size makes it tough to bring him down once he has the ball in his hands, and the pass happy offense in Arizona means either Leinart or Warner will be looking his way many times during the game. I see him catching 90 passes for about 1,200 yards and seven scores.

13. Plaxico Burress, New York Giants
    70 catches, 1,025 yards, 12 TDs

    Burress had his finest season as a pro with the Giants in 2007, although statistically 2005 was his best except for touchdowns. Burress played through pain, mostly kept his mouth shut, and helped lead the Giants to an improbable Super Bowl run. Not sure if this will have a negative effect on Plax, as he figures he has nothing left to prove and relaxes. Or, will the championship give his fire to play the game another log to burn? I expect to see similar touchdown numbers with more catches and yards considering he stays healthy. With Jeremy Shockey off to New Orleans, the Giants passing game completely revolves around Burress.

14. Marvin Harrison, Indianapolis Colts
    20 catches, 247 yards, 1 TD (5 games)

    How the mighty have fallen. Marvin was a top three fantasy receiver last season, but due to age, injury, and that pesky gun incident in the offseason, he has fallen big time down the rankings. Harrison’s knees were a huge problem in 2007, and it cost him most of the season. Even the games he did play he wasn’t incredibly effective, as he averaged just four catches for 50 yards. Harrison will also be pushed by the fact that the Colts have a young Anthony Gonzalez who looked very good in Marvin’s absense. It is possible that he will have a huge resurgence and we will all look silly, but at age 35, I wouldn’t bet my house on it.

15. Roy Williams, Detroit Lions
    63 catches, 836 yards, 5 TDs (12 games)

    Roy Williams is one of the most physically gifted receivers in the NFL, however, he has had his share of nagging injuries during his career. He has a decent enough quarterback throwing him the ball, and with the maturation of Calvin Johnson, Roy shouldn’t be the main focus of the opposing defense anymore. Given a full season of health, Williams should be able to make about 85 catches for over 1,200 yards, and he certainly has the talent to reach 10 touchdowns… if everything goes right.

16. Brandon Marshall, Denver Broncos
    102 catches, 1,325 yards, 7 TDs

    Marshall enjoyed quite the breakout season with Denver last year, as he went from 20 catches to 102, and 309 yards to 1,325. He is without a doubt Jay Cutler’s favorite target, and at 6′4″, 230 pounds, he is a beast to bring down once he has the ball. Marshall had an “unfortunate incident” with a glass entertainment center in which he suffered some injury to his forearm, but should be ready for the start of training camp. With the further growth of Cutler, Marshall could have similar numbers in ‘08, but you have to expect he will come back a little bit. Look for 90-93 catches, 1,175-1,200 yards, and another 7 scores.

17. Wes Welker, New England Patriots
    112 catches, 1,175 yards, 8 TDs

    Welker was that fly buzzing around your head. No matter how many times you swat at him, he just won’t go away. With Randy Moss and Donte Stallworth stretching the field, opposing teams had no answer for Welker and he tied for the league lead in catches. Mostly used in the return game for the Dolphins, the Pats saw something in him, and it paid off. Considering New England will probably run the exact same offense this year, you can expect another good year from Welker, although you can’t expect him to catch 110 passes again.

18. Santonio Holmes, Pittsburgh Steelers
    52 catches, 942 yards, 8 TDs (13 games)

    Catch a rising star before it gets to be too late. Holmes didn’t increase his reception numbers or yards much in his second year, but his touchdowns went up dramatically from two to eight. In his third year, I expect all of his numbers to rise. With injuries and age to Hines Ward, Holmes is becoming a major part of the Steelers passing game, and with Roethlisberger taking his game to the next level, Holmes should be streaking down sidelines all season long, but not like Will Ferrell in Old School. Holmes will be completely dressed, with a football in his hands. Expect 80+ catches, 1,200 yards, and 8 scores.

19. Lee Evans, Buffalo Bills
    55 catches, 849 yards, 5 TDs

    After a huge breakout season in 2006, Evans was a high pick by a lot of players last year. Well, he took a huge step back in 2007, but if the Bills offense can show any consistency (a BIG if), look for Evans to get back close to his numbers from two seasons ago. Evans is a big play waiting to happen, but he did disappear at times last year, as he caught two passes or less in seven games. He is a real wild card so draft him with some reservations, a high risk/high reward type of guy.

20. Calvin Johnson, Detroit Lions
    48 catches, 756 yards, 4 TDs

    Johnson had fantasy football players salivating on draft day just at the thought of having him on their team. The rookie WR was supposed to be the next big thing as his 6′5″ frame was perfect for man handling cornerbacks, and I heard he could turn water into wine, and solve world hunger……and oh yeah, he finished with under 50 catches. No doubt sometime soon Johnson will be towards the very top of these rankings , but back issues, and the normal inconsistencies that rookies often show made Johnson seem mortal. Roy Williams will take a lot of attention away from Johnson, and he has perhaps the best opportunity to really shoot up the board in 2008, just keep your expectations in reality and you shouldn’t be disappointed. Johnson is a high end #2 receiver.

21. Hines Ward, Pittsburgh Steelers
    71 catches, 732 yards, 7 TDs (13 games)

    Once one of the most underrated receivers in football, Ward’s stats have been falling, along with the number of games he has been playing. Still, when the Steelers need a big catch, especially on third down, you can just about bet that number 84 will get the first look. Ward will still get you solid numbers, as I expect similar numbers from 2007, but he has certainly come down the rankings from where he once was.

22. Donald Driver, Green Bay Packers
    82 catches, 1,048 yards, 2 TDs

    Driver is now Hines Ward with better statistics. Driver has been Brett Favre’s go to man for the past few years now, and has been over 80 catches and 1,000 yards for four consecutive seasons. However, Driver is probably the Packers’ receiver who could be the most effected by the change in quarterback, as he and Favre seemed to always know where the other one was. He is a true professional though, and I expect Driver to have another season with 80 catches, 1,000 yards, and at least six scores.

23. Roddy White, Atlanta Falcons
    83 catches, 1,202 yards, 6 TDs

    White finally started to live up to his high draft pick status in 2007, while the Falcons were in a tremendous amount of controversy. While for years, Falcons receivers had been vilified as unable to catch the ball thrown from Michael Vick, White showed that perhaps the wideouts weren’t the problem. In his third year in the league, Roddy had better statistics than in his first two years combined. He is lightning fast, and really gives the Falcons a legitimate deep threat and a guy who can take a five yard slant pattern and turn it into an 80 yard touchdown. It would be hard to predict him putting up better numbers than last season, but I at least expect White to be in the ballpark, regardless of who is the starter in Hotlanta.

24. Chris Chambers, San Diego Chargers
    66 catches, 970 yards, 4 TDs

    A change of scenery will have done wonders for Chambers fantasy value, as if he was still in Miami he would be ranked lower. With the uncertainty about Antonio Gates, look for Chambers to be more involved in the offense than he was last year when he joined the Bolts in October. Chambers isn’t a big receiver, but he is pretty fast and has had a nose for the end zone in the past.

25. Greg Jennings, Green Bay Packers
    53 catches, 920 yards, 12 TDs (13 games)

    While Donald Driver piled up the receptions, Jennings kept finding the endzone. He had a nice jump in both catches and yards, and a dramatic increase in touchdowns. Again, given the uncertainty in the change of quarterback, it is somewhat difficult to predict Jennings’ numbers for 2008, but if Aaron Rodgers is as ready as the Packers feel that he is, I would expect Jennings receptions and yards to continue to increase, while his touchdowns should go under 10.

26. Bobby Engram, Seattle Seahawks
    94 catches, 1,147 yards, 6 TDs

    It took a while for fantasy owners to catch on that Engram was having a great season in 2007, and his final statistics were great. Given the fact that the ‘Hawks had little running game, they counted on the a great deal on Hasslebeck and a questionable receiving corps. But Engram had the best year of his career, and is now looking to get paid. Be careful how much stock you put in him, however, because he is 35 years old, and guys don’t usually have career resurgences at this age.

27. Jerricho Cotchery, New York Jets
    82 catches, 1,130 yards, 2 TDs

    Given the state of the Jets’ offense, it will continue to be tough for Cotchery to score too many touchdowns. Until they find themselves a legitimate quarterback (Brett Favre, perhaps?), all of the Jets offensive players will put up so-so touchdown figures. Cotchery tied his career high in catches, and went over 1,000 yards for the first time in his career. It won’t be his last, as I believe he still has a little bit of room for more improvement. He will be held back fantasy-wise however, as he should top out at five scores.

28. Joey Galloway, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
    57 catches, 1,014 yards, 6 TDs

    Age is finally starting to catch up to Galloway, as his statstics have been on the decline for two consecutive seasons. Having a continual quarterback controversy can’t help things either, as the 36 year old Galloway seems to be in the twilight of his career. I don’t see a major drop off in 2008, but don’t go looking for his 83/1,287/10 TD season of 2005, because that isn’t coming back.

29. Kevin Curtis, Philadelphia Eagles
    77 catches, 1,110 yards, 6 TDs

    Ok, so half of his touchdowns did come in a single game, but Curtis is turning into the go-to guy in Philly. In his first season in the City of Brotherly Love, Curtis broke 1,000 yards for the first time in his career as he answered the question if he was good enough to transition from a slot receiver for the Rams to a big-time consistent threat with the Eagles. With a dip in production expected from Brian Westbrook, and maybe a more consistent Donovan McNabb, you can look for Curtis to repeat last season’s numbers, but just be aware that he wasn’t the most consistent guy last year. He had three tremendous games, and four pretty bad ones to go with 9 games that you would take on a weekly basis.

30. Dwayne Bowe, Kansas City Chiefs
    70 catches, 995 yards, 5 TDs

    Bowe is another guy that if he had something that resembled a quarterback, would shoot right up these rankings. But show me someone who is excited by Brodie Croyle, and I will show you someone who is related to him. Despite the fact that the Chiefs offense moved down the field with all the speed of a snail, Bowe still had an impressive rookie season. He was gifted physically to play WR in the NFL, and despite the fact that his team will struggle, he should improve on last year’s numbers. Hey, a team that is behind in games all the time is forced to pass, right?

31. Patrick Crayton, Dallas Cowboys
    50 catches, 697 yards, 7 TDs

    With the recent release of Terry Glenn, there is now no doubt who will be lining up on the other side of Terrell Owens in Dallas. Crayton took the starting job last season when Glenn went down, and did a pretty decent job. He had career highs in all stats across the board. With the defense always focusing on Owens, having to respect Marion Barber, and the always dangerous Jason Witten, I expect that Crayton will step up his production to a new leve. I see 75+ catches, near 1,000 yards, and eight scores.

32. Santana Moss, Washington Redskins
    61 catches, 808 yards, 3 TDs

    The diminutive Moss has been proving people wrong his whole career. Always told he is too small to play, the speedster is one of the toughest receivers in the league to figure out. One season he catches 1,483 yards and nine scores, last season, just over 800 yards and only three touchdowns . The inconsistent play of Jason Campbell is helping things either, so I will predict he will land somewhere in the middle. Look for 68 catches, 1,100 yards, and six trips to paydirt.

33. Laverneous Coles, New York Jets
    55 catches, 646 yards, 6 TDs (11 games)

    When healthy, Coles has been a 90 catch, 1,000 yard receiver in the past. Last year he missed some time due to a high ankle sprain, and when he was in there, the Jets offense was inept at best. Hopefully, he can enjoy a full season of health, but to ask for 90+ catches with either Pennington or Clemens throwing the ball might be a stretch. Coles should be the most vocal Jet campaigning for Chad to be the starter, as these two have formed at least something that resembles chemistry. 75 catches, 950 yards, and 6 TDs, would seem to be about where he should end the season.

34. Vincent Jackson, San Diego Chargers
    41 catches, 623 yards, 3 TDs

    Jackson was everyone’s favorite pick for the breakout player of 2007. Well, that didn’t happen, as the Chargers big receiver continued to struggle with consistency. Jackson still has the tools to maybe have that big year, and the addition of Chris Chambers could help take some attention away from Jackson, and have less talented defensive backs cover him. Expect his numbers to increase by about 50% this year.

35. Drew Bennett, St. Louis Rams
    33 catches, 375 yards, 3 TDs (12 games)

    Steve McNair’s favorite target while he was in Tennessee, Bennett was a major disappointment together with the rest of the Rams offense in 2007, so don’t necessarily think that Bennett will have similar numbers this season. With the departure of Isaac Bruce to San Francisco, Bennett will undoubtedly be the other starter in St. Louis, so look for 60+ catches and 750+yards. Hopefully, with a healthy Steven Jackson and Marc Bulger, the Rams can start scoring more, and in turn so will Bennett.

36. Derrick Mason, Baltimore Ravens
    103 catches, 1,087 yards, 5 TDs

    One of the most reliable veteran receivers in the league, Mason had a surprising 2007 in which he caught 100 balls for the first time. He hasn’t scored more than five touchdowns in the past three years, and with the Ravens offense looking like it will be as exciting as watching paint dry again, don’t expect Mase to pile up the touchdowns. He will definitely take a step back to 75 catches, 875 yards, and four touches.

37. Reggie Brown, Philadelphia Eagles
    61 catches, 780 yards, 4 TDs

    Brown was supposed to be the Eagles number one receiver going into 2007, but his final numbers hardly suggest that was the case. His yardage actually regressed with 15 more catches, and his touchdowns were cut in half. I can’t see Brian Westbrook dominating the offensive touches again like he did last year, so hopefully McNabb will look towards his receivers more, and Brown can get over 70 catches, and maybe six or seven scores.

38. Mark Clayton, Baltimore Ravens
    48 catches, 531 yards, 0 TDs

    Few expected Clayton to take such a sizeable step back in his career after a very solid 2006. But he caught almost 20 less passes, compiled over 400 less yards, and failed to score even once. The bad news is the Ravens are deciding between Kyle Boller and rookie Joe Flacco for their starting QB in 2008, so although I expect Clayton to bounce back this season, he isn’t taking the next step towards stardom this season. 65 catches, 800 yards, 4 touchdowns, and that’s the max.

39. Javon Walker, Oakland Raiders
    26 catches, 287 yards, 0 TDs (7 games)

    He almost retired a couple of days ago, but apparently Al Davis talked him out of it. This ranking is entirely hinged on his health. I think his days of being a number one receiver are clearly over, especially with what amounts to a rookie quarterback throwing him the ball in JaMarcus Russell. If he still has the drive to compete, he could have a decent, 65 catch, 900 yard, season. But with the state of the Raiders offense, you can’t expect too much out of a guy who has had massive knee problems over the past couple seasons.

40. Nate Burleson, Seattle Seahawks
    50 catches, 694 yards, 9 TDs

    He wasn’t the favorite target of QB Matt Hasslebeck, but he certainly got the looks when it counted… around the end zone. Burleson averaged less than four catches a game, but his nine touchdowns put him in a category of a very useful fantasy receiver. He will frustrate you with his inconsistency, but if he can remain popular in the red zone, you will be a very happy Burelson owner.

41. Anthony Gonzalez, Indianapolis Colts
    37 catches, 576 yards, 3 TDs

    When Marvin Harrison went down with his injury, the Colts were looking for a good second option after Reggie Wayne. It took him a little while to make an impact, but over the last handful of weeks of the season Gonzalez really started to show what the Colts saw in him when they drafted him in the first round. Considering Harrison goes into the year as somewhat of a question mark, Gonzalez should be the most valuable third receiver in fantasy football. I believe he can catch 60+ passes. and go for over 800 yards and six touchdowns. He should be one of the better sleepers available this season.

42. Donte Stallworth, Cleveland Browns
    46 catches, 697 yards, 3 TDs

    Even in the record breaking Patriots offense, Stallworth had a subpar season. Considering the amount of passes that Tom Brady threw in 2007, you would have expected Stallworth’s stats to be better than they were, especially the touchdown numbers. They obviously felt the same way, because they let him go to Cleveland without a fight. He will start opposite Braylon Edwards, and perhaps being out of the spotlight in New England will help his cause. Stallworth has always been a disappointment since being drafted in the first round, but late in your draft, he could be worth a pick.

43. Reggie Williams, Jacksonville Jaguars
    38 catches, 629 yards, 10 TDs

    Reggie is only on this list because he was able to find the endzone pretty regularly last year. At 6′4″ he is a good target to go for David Garrard when around the end zone, and he took full advantage, as 10 of Garrard’s 18 touchdowns went to Williams. I expect his catches to go up, his touchdowns to go down, and Williams to continue to not live up to his expectations, as he was once the ninth overall pick in the draft.

44. Sidney Rice, Minnesota Vikings
    31 catches, 396 yards, 4 TDs

    He will have a lot to make up for since Tarvaris Jackson basically sucks and the Vikings haven’t had a passing game in a few years now. Rice showed flashes of brilliance last year, and at 6′4″, and 202 pounds he definitely has the tools and skills to be a big time receiver. However, four touchdowns as a rookie in a subpar offense is a pretty good number.

45. Bryant Johnson, San Francisco 49ers
    45 catches, 525 yards, 2 TDs

    Ok, someone has to catch the ball for the 49ers, I promise. I know their offense is as potent as a wine cooler, but I think that Johnson could have a decent season. Considering he has been the third receiver in Arizona for the past few years, his stats aren’t that bad. If offensive coordinator Mike Martz can wake up the ‘O’ in SF, Johnson could be the beneficiary a bunch of passes his way in a new system.

46. Devin Hester, Chicago Bears
    20 catches, 299 yards, 2 TDs

    This season, the Bears are committed to making Hester a full-time receiver, and they recently gave him a nice pay raise to show their belief that he will become a number one receiver sometime very soon. I believe that to be a bit of a stretch, especially for this season, but he is an intriguing pick for fantasy owners, as he will probably either transform into a superstar this year, or have another year struggling to make the transition to offense. His hands are question marks, and couple that with Rex Grossman at QB, and it makes me less than optimistic about this being a breakout year for Hester.

47. Ernest Wilford, Miami Dolphins
    45 catches, 518 yards, 3 TDs

    Ernest Wilford has been big his whole career, a big disappointment. The guy is 6′4″ and 223 pounds, and has never caught more than 45 passes. Perhaps his move to the Dolphins will help out his statistics as he will be the undisputed man in Miami. He is a big tall guy, and if the Dolphins ever happen to get in the red zone, you would think that they would target Wilford when they get down there.

48. Steve Smith, New York Giants
    8 catches, 63 yards, 0 TDs (4 games)

    After missing most of the season with a fractured shoulder blade, Steve Smith came back at the end of the season and made a slight impression on me that he could be valuable this year. He made a couple of big catches down the stretch, and had a great Super Bowl with five catches for 50 yards. He will still start the season as the third receiver behind Burress and Toomer, but I believe he has a real shot to surpass Toomer statistically this season, if in no other category besides touchdowns, and we all know that is the one that counts.

49. Amani Toomer, New York Giants
    59 catches, 760 yards, 3 TDs

    He is about as plain and unexciting as it comes, but one thing he is in consistent. Toomer has become Eli Manning’s security blanket, and when a play seems to break down, it seems that Eli looks for number 81. Toomer is never going to get you a big 12 catch, 150 yard game, but he should get four or five catches every game for 60 or 70 yards. He will even sprinkle in a touchdown here and there. He is 36 years old, however, so his statistics should start to decline due to age, and the emergence of a young Steve Smith.
