Come on, do you think even the great seer Nostradamus could have foreseen the fantasy impact of Tyreek Hill last season I think not Whether with real life events or sports, youre going to have your share of good and bad prognostications. Did you know that in 1. Decca Recording Company declined to sign the Beatles Thats right, Dick Rowe, who agreed to give the band an audition, famously predicted that guitar groups were on their way out. One might assume Mr. Rowe went on to a career of selling used cars somewhere after that regrettable prediction, but he kept his job and actually signed the Rolling Stones years later. Win some, lose some. Remember Ja. Marcus RussellA lot of NFL analysts loved him coming out of college. So did the Oakland Raiders, who drafted him No. Howd that work out, Raider Nation You know who the so called experts didnt love Like not at all A skinny dude out of Michigan named Tom Brady. He was a sixth round pick of the New England Patriots in the 2. NFL Draft. Now, entering his 1. NFL season, Brady is considered the greatest quarterback to ever grace the gridiron. Oh, and how did all of those predictions of a surefire Democratic landslide win turn out in the last Presidential election As Homer Simpson so eloquently put it, DohFantasy sports are no different. Using facts, statistics, trends and any number of other sources of information, analysts like myself try our absolute damndest to accurately predict player values from one season to the next. Some picks are easier. Ezekiel Elliott, a stud out of Ohio State, emerged into a fantasy superstar during his rookie season in Dallas. Of course, there are also the prognostications that went horribly wrong. Like predicting Todd Gurley was worth the first overall selection in standard re draft leagues. Yeah, um. Im still sorry about that one. While correct predictions can be the difference between a good fantasy team and a great one, incorrect picks can also cause a devastating blow to your league championship hopes. You know this feeling all too well if you drafted Gurley or any number of superstar wide receivers last season. Despite all of the research thats done, a fair share of predictions, no matter how relevant or based on facts and stats, no matter how we might twist the numbers to back our points, are going to be wrong. And in some cases, those predictions will be embarrassingly wrong. Why is that the case Well. the one thing thats predictable about the NFL is that its often times unpredictable. Thats a lesson Ive learned over and over again in my nearly two decades of making fantasy picks. I mean, De. Andre Hopkins finished 3. Rishard Matthews, Jamison Crowder and some dude named Adam Thielen. You know him now, but did you know him last summerHeck to the no. Several predictions youll hear now and leading up to your fantasy drafts, while sound, thoughtful and intelligent at the time, are going to blow up in our and your faces. Some more than others. With that in mind, heres a look at the 1. NFL season that could devastate fantasy teams if proven incorrect. LeVeon Bell will avoid injuries and continue to be a fantasy stud. I love Bell, and Id take him with one of the first three overall picks in re drafts. Any intelligent fantasy owner would. But what if he just isnt durable Hear me out. I know, hes missed some time due to league suspensions in recent seasons. But Bell has also been sidelined more than a few times with knee problems, and he ended the 2. If the worst case scenario does happen and Bell gets hurt again, owners wont have De. Angelo Williams to save their bacon either. Michael Thomas will avoid a sophomore slump with Brandin Cooks gone. Thomas was tremendous as a rookie, finishing ninth in fantasy points among wide receivers. Now that Cooks is in New England, it only makes sense for the talented former Buckeye to see an increase in his target share and as a result, an increase in fantasy production. Plus, he has a future Hall of Famer in Drew Brees throwing him the football. Seems like a no brainer, right Yes, it seems like it to me too. Thomas cant miss. And then I remember what happened to dudes like Terry Glenn, Michael Clayton, Mike Evans and Cordarrelle Patterson to name a mere few after successful rookie seasons, and I realize there are no sure things. Marshawn Lynch will return to Beast Mode after a full season off. Lynchs return to the NFL deepens the running back position and puts another stud in the draft stable. After all, hes had a full year without football to rest, and hes joining a Raiders offense with one of the best run blocking offensive lines in the league. Heck, Latavius Murray had 1. But what if Lynch, 3. Remember, he missed nine games due to injuries and averaged just 3. Seattle 2. 01. 5. We also know what can happen to runners after age 3. Maybe De. Andre Washington is a sleeper. Leonard Fournette will make an immediate fantasy impact as a rookie. Running backs can make a major impact during their rookie years, maybe more so than any other offensive skill position. Look at Elliott and Jordan Howard a season ago. Over the last five seasons, a combined 1. In 2. 01. 2 alone, Doug Martin second, Alfred Morris fifth, Eddie Lacy sixth and Trent Richardson ninth all finished in the top 1. Fournette, however, will be running behind a questionable offensive line and could still lose at least some work to veterans Chris Ivory and T. J. Yeldon. I like Fournette a whole lot, but there are some cons. Rob Gronkowski is 1. Gronk. Gronkowski hasnt had a quiet offseason, as hes been seen in World Wrestling Entertainment rings and partying all over the place like only the big man can. All reports have him back at 1. But lets not forget that this is the same Gronkowski who missed eight games a season ago due to back problems. Hes also missed at least half of two of his last four seasons and his playing style isnt any less punishing. The Patriots also have more weapons on offense than ever before with the addition of Brandin Cooks to goal along with incumbent Julian Edelman. Joe Mixon will take the featured role in Cincinnati and run with it. Mixons disgusting behavior caught on video should not be forgotten, and hopefully he has learned from that terrible mistake. But in terms of real football, theres no denying that he was one of the most talented running backs in the entire 2. That talent has analysts, including myself, gushing over this fantasy potential. It would be foolish to not think of a scenario, however, where Mixon lands in a backfield committee with Jeremy Hill and Giovani Bernard. I mean, Hill has rushed for a combined 2. Such a result would make Mixon a bust based on his rising average draft position. Adrian Peterson is old, overworked and wont make a real impact. The last time I doubted Peterson was in 2. I called him a third or fourth rounder. He went on to rush for 2,0. No. 1 runner in fantasy land. Nice prediction there, Fabiano. Now 3. 2, All Day has missed most of two of the last three seasons including a 2. But what if Peterson pulls a Curtis Martin What if he overtakes Mark Ingram, who is going ahead of him in drafts Its not a hard scenario to envision. Christian Mc. Caffrey will become the No. Carolina. Mc. Caffrey is easy to root for if youre a fantasy fan. Hes not a big dude, hes not a strong dude, but man can he run and catch a ball and make spectacular plays on the gridiron.
