Each offseason brings change to NFL rosters, and those changes often have fantasy implications. Below, I lay out the changes at the skill positions and how those moves impact the fantasy status of the new roster.


2017
    QB: Marcus Mariota, Matt Cassel
    RB: DeMarco Murray, Derrick Henry
    WR: Rishard Matthews, Eric Decker, Corey Davis, Taywan Taylor
    TE: Delanie Walker, Jonnu Smith, Philip Supernaw


2018
    QB: Marcus Mariota, Blaine Gabbert
    RB: Derrick Henry, Dion Lewis, David Fluellen, Khalfani Muhammad
    WR: Rishard Matthews, Corey Davis, Taywan Taylor, Tajae Sharpe, Michael Campanaro
    TE: Delanie Walker, Jonnu Smith, Philip Supernaw




Pre-Draft Offseason:

The Titans have upgraded their defense this offseason as well as their running game. Letting DeMarco Murray walk and signing Dion Lewis was a net gain for their offense, but that does make life harder for fantasy players, especially dynasty players who have Derrick Henry rostered. I’m going to assume that Henry becomes the early-down back while Lewis is the receiving back, which could give both fantasy value, but there is a chance that Lewis’ versatility gets him on the field enough to even cut into Henry’s between-the-tackles work. And even if Henry keeps the early-down touches, he’ll need positive game scripts to get the touches he needs for fantasy relevancy. I likely won’t invest in Henry at his ADP, and Lewis will need to be a decent value, but if he is, I’ll target him.



Post-Draft Update

The Titans only had four total picks and went with defense for the first three and then a developmental quarterback with their 100th-overall pick. The defense got a boost with two strong linebacker picks, which should help a shaky unit and in turn give the offense a better shot at running the game the coaches want.



2018 Fantasy Outlook:

Stud: None

Solid: Delanie Walker, Rishard Matthews

Sleeper: Dion Lewis, Corey Davis
