Antonio Gandy-Golden (WR, WAS) - 2020 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

August 25, 2020

Washington wide receiver (WR) Antonio Gandy-Golden is a fantasy football sleeper and ADP value for the 2020 season. We break down his value in fantasy drafts.

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall

CURRENT ADP: 180+ (Undrafted)

ANALYSIS: Washington's passing situation is obviously not great. In one corner, you have second-year quarterback Dwayne Haskins, who completed 58.6 percent of his passes last year with seven touchdowns and seven interceptions in seven starts. In the other corner, you might have Alex Smith, who last played in 2018, when he suffered a devastating leg injury that endangered his life.

Neither option is great for whoever lines up at wide receiver for Washington, aside from Terry McLaurin, whose role as the team's No. 1 receiver should lead to him getting enough targets to be a viable starting fantasy receiver. But secondary receivers on bad teams can be valuable fantasy plays. Washington lost Kelvin Harmon before the season to an ACL injury. Steven Sims Jr. is looking like he'll be the starting slot receiver, while there's room for either rookie Antonio Gandy-Golden or veteran Dontrelle Inman to be the team's other outside receiver.

The past few years have seen Inman play inconsistent football that's usually verging on the "meh" side of things. That gives Gandy-Golden some nice upside, which Inman doesn't seem to carry with him anymore. AGG's got a 79th percentile speed score, an 81st percentile college dominator, and a 90th percentile college target share. AGG's got the upside to win the role as the No. 2 outside guy here, making him a viable deep-league dart throw during bye weeks, with the potential to exceed that projection.
