Here's why:
Calvin Johnson is the most dangerous receiver Fantasy Football has ever seen. I think drafting him with the first pick overall would be genius.
I'm probably a little biased when it comes to Larry Fitzgerald because he is my favorite player. But he does everything right, and he's just so damn likable. Hopefully John Skelton doesn't suck as bad as we all know he will.
Andre Johnson was the first genetically modified prototype created by the Fantasy Gods, before they created Megatron. However, they forgot to make him injury-proof. But he's still a very sophisticated and capable robot.
Julio Jones will explode on to the limited scene of elite receivers this year, and he will burn anyone who tries to stop him.
Greg Jennings will remain Aaron Rodgers' favorite redzone target which basically guarantees him a top-ten ranking.
A.J. Green is as good as Julio Jones. Except, that he'll have to face double-team coverage most of the time, because the Bengals don't have a respectable #2 across from him.
Roddy White will lose some of his production to the 2nd-year stud, Julio. But his numbers have been so good over the last three seasons, that it won't hurt all that much.
Hakeem Nicks may not be able to read, write, or play in all 16 games, but he can catch a bubble-screen and turn it in to a 50-yard TD better than anyone. And with teammate, Victor Cruz stealing safety's attentions away form Nicks, he should have a great season.
Brandon Marshall is back with Jay Cutler, which means he'll have 100+ catches, over 1,000 yards receiving, and something-teen TD's..... God, I hate Da Bears.
Victor Cruz will get the opportunity to catch a deep-ball every quarter this season. So scratch him in for 80yds + a score all year.
Wes Welker didn't make the top-ten on my list. Get over it. The tight-ends won't see any less action, and Brandon Lloyd is going to steal a lot of Brady's looks from him.
Brandon Lloyd- See above.
Jordy Nelson, Percy Harvin, Eric Decker and Steve Smith are all: Fast, Sure-handed security blankets for their respected quarterbacks, who can make things happen in the open field. All four are destined for a very good year.
Mike Wallace- See Victor Cruz.
Demaryius Thomas is a younger version of Brandon Marshall, and going into the same situation as Marshall did with the Broncos in 2007. He has a ton of upside, and the ability to turn busted plays into huge gains. I feel bad ranking him at 18, because I think he could finish so much higher. But he's young, and has a new QB. Either way, I think by next year he should be top-ten material.
Every year people think Marques Colston is going to have a better year than the last. It has proven to be untrue, with Drew Brees sharing the ball as much as he does. But this year, the departure of Robert Meachem does help a bit. Don't expect anything crazy, but he should have a respectable season.
Dez Bryant has the ability to be elite. It's just too bad the elements around him hinder that from happening. He should still have some multi-touchdown games. Good luck guessing which ones.
