BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED: 13% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Unless you were a fan of Johnson's work as a wide receiver at the University of Oregon, you probably never heard of him until he started catching some passes in preseason games this August, when New Orleans' tight end corps was decimated by injuries. The fantasy football world knows him now, though, after he hauled in two touchdown passes in the Saints' shocking Week 1 demolition of the Green Bay Packers.
You cannot add Johnson to your fantasy roster without some reservations though. Adam Trautman had twice as many targets in Week 1 and is probably still New Orleans' No. 1 receiving tight end. Johnson also went undrafted after leaving Oregon, so it is not as if he had the hoopla coming out of college Kyle Pitts had. Yet, he is looking like a red-zone favorite of Jameis Winston on a team who is starved for pass-catching playmakers with Michael Thomas on IR. Scoop up Johnson and see if he keeps finding the end zone in the coming weeks, especially in standard leagues.
