2016 Fantasy Football Stock Report – Week of June 20


June 27

Julius Thomas, TE, Jaguars
Julius Thomas has reportedly been unstoppable in OTAs this offseason. In fact, beat writer Hays Carylon believes Thomas will score double-digit touchdowns – a far cry from his disappointing 2015 campaign. Thomas was banged up and ineffective, but it appears as though he has gotten over his injuries.

Sammy Watkins, WR, Bills
Sammy Watkins said he might be back for training camp. I’m noting this because Watkins said he would definitely return earlier, so he’s not as confident now. Watkins could aggravate his foot if he comes back too early, so tread carefully.





June 26

Jamison Crowder, WR, Redskins
The Redskins have loved how Jamison Crowder has looked this offseason. Crowder is the fourth receiver right now, but he may see some playing time eventually with Josh Doctson dealing with an Achilles and DeSean Jackson being a ticking time bomb. He’s someone to remember during the season.


June 25

T.J. Jones, WR, Lions
Matthew Stafford praised T.J. Jones, suggesting that he could have a breakout season. Jones could be the third receiver this year, and with Calvin Johnson gone, he’ll have opportunities to produce. Chet Gresham suggested getting Jones on your radar in deep leagues.


June 24

Ameer Abdullah, RB, Lions
Ameer Abdullah will have every opportunity to carry the ball this upcoming season, according to Tim Twentyman of the team’s Web site. Abdullah averaged 4.7 yards per carry after the team’s bye, so he seems poised for a great season. He’s definitely someone to target in drafts this summer.





June 23

DeMarco Murray, RB, Titans
DeMarco Murray told the media that he feels more comfortable in Mike Mularkey’s offense than in Chip Kelly’s. Unlike Kelly, Mularkey actually knows how to use Murray’s skill set. Murray is bound to bounce back this season, though his durability is still a major issue.

Charles Sims, RB, Buccaneers
Pewter Report believes that Charles Sims will have a larger role this upcoming season. This would not be surprising, as Doug Martin signed a big contract this spring and could disappoint as a result.




June 22

Tyler Lockett, WR, Seahawks
Pete Carroll confirmed that Tyler Lockett is one of the starting receivers. There was some speculation that Jermaine Kearse would get the nod after he was re-signed this offseason, but that’s not the case. Lockett seems like a decent WR3 target.





June 21

LeGarrette Blount, RB, Patriots
LeGarrette Blount hasn’t practiced yet this offseason because of his hip injury. It remains to be seen when Blount will be ready to go, but if his absence continues, the Patriots may sign someone like Arian Foster.

Arian Foster, RB, TBA
Arian Foster believes that he’ll be ready for training camp. Foster may sign on with the Dolphins, who don’t have a true starter, or the Patriots, who might be interested in a running back in the wake of LeGarrette Blount’s troublesome hip.

Dezmin Lewis, WR, Bills
Dezmin Lewis was named Buffalo’s minicamp MVP. Lewis was a seventh-round pick in 2015, but he’s been performing much better than that in practice. He could turn into a solid late-round flier if he continues to show well this offseason.

Dennis Pitta, TE, Ravens
Dennis Pitta has practiced without limitations this offseason, and the Baltimore Sun’s Jeff Zrebiec said that he should be a “significant contributor” this year. Pitta will have to fight for targets in a crowded tight end group, but he’ll be worth monitoring in the preseason.


June 20

Sammy Watkins, WR, Bills
Sammy Watkins told the media that he’ll be ready by early training camp. Previous reports were more pessimistic, as it has been speculated that Watkins would miss a couple of games. Stay tuned for further updates.
