45. Brian Quick, STL: Despite showing all of the physical traits of becoming a force at the wide receiver position, Quick has yet to reach his potential. He started to come on at the beginning of last season, but he missed the last nine games of the season with a serious shoulder injury. Quick has all the tools to be a star, and it will be interesting to see if he can finally reach his potential with new quarterback Nick Foles.

44. Davante Adams, Green Bay Packers: Adams’ fantasy success will all come down to how much he can get involved in the Packers’ offense. He is a very talented player with impressive upside going forward, but there simply are not many touches to go around in Green Bay. Adams will always be a risky start, because you will never know what kind of targets to expect, but he has incredible upside in arguably the best offense in the NFL.

43. Mike Wallace, Minnesota Vikings: Going from Miami to Minnesota could be a strong move Wallace’s career. Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater throws a much better deep ball than Tannehill, and going deep has always been Wallace’s game. However, have his skills deteriorated enough to the point where he cannot be effective as a deep threat? Only time will tell.

42. Pierre Garcon, Washington Redskins: Garcon is still a very talented receiver with plenty of skills and upside remaining in his game. Inconsistent quarterback play and issues with injuries have killed Garcon’s fantasy value the last two years, but the talent is still there. If the Redskins can find someone to emerge at the quarterback position, I think Garcon could have a very nice fantasy season.
