CURRENT ADP: ~127 Overall (WR 48)
BALLER MOVE: Target in Late Rounds as WR4
ANALYSIS: After a disappointing 2014 season, Pierre Garcon‘s draft day value will likely take a substantial hit. This could be good news for savvy fantasy owners who will likely be able to nab him in the later rounds and get a wide receiver with some upside for cheap.
In 2013, Garcon caught 113 passes -- most in the NFL -- for 1,346 receiving yards and five touchdowns. Last year, though, he only caught 68 passes for 752 receiving yards and three scores.
Based on his track record, his production should fall somewhere in between in 2015. Jay Gruden has said he is determined to get Garcon more involved, and the QB situation should be more stable this year, assuming Robert Griffin III is healthy.
Between adding a new primary receiver in DeSean Jackson and the QB carousel involving RGIII, Cousins and McCoy, it’s easy to see how Garcon could have a down year in 2014. As Jackson and Garcon continue to build chemistry, getting in each other's way should become less of an issue.
At the cheap price you're paying for Garcon (10th round ADP), what’s there to lose?
