Projected Offensive Depth Chart
QB1: Matthew Stafford QB2: Ty Simpson QB3: Stetson Bennett
RB1: Kyren Williams RB2: Blake Corum RB3: Ronnie Rivers
WR1: Puka Nacua WR2: Davante Adams WR3: Xavier Smith
TE1: Colby Parkinson TE2: Max Klare TE3: Terrence Ferguson
The Rams once again return an explosive offensive attack led by reigning MVP Matthew Stafford. At the beginning of the season, there were questions whether Stafford would be able to play or not due to lingering back injuries and all he did after that was finish as the overall QB2 in fantasy football. Puka Nacua finished as the overall WR1 and new running mate Davante Adams finished as the overall WR8. While Stafford’s age may cause some concern about spending a high draft pick on him, he could again be a steal after the top tier of quarterbacks come off draft boards in the mid rounds. Nacua will be one of the first three receivers taken off the board and Adams will likely go somewhere in the third or fourth round. At running back Kyren Williams finished as the overall RB8 but what got concerning was Blake Corum cut into his snap and carry share as the season went along. The Rams could lean more towards a true timeshare this year and that could impact Williams’ draft status. A high second round pick last year, he could move to a low second/early third this year while Corum will have a handcuff status to start. The biggest question mark is the tight end position. Colby Parkinson finished as the overall TE15 but the Rams drafted Max Klare in the second round and have second year man Terrance Ferguson who flashed some potential at the end of the season.

Player most likely to beat ADP: Blake Corum (ADp 95, RB34)
Corum averaged 10.5 carries per game from Week 7 on last season and produced four consecutive weeks of at least 13.1 fantasy points from weeks 13 to 16. He’s a great handcuff to have and could move towards a true timeshare with how productive he was late last season.
Player most likely to fade based on ADP: Kyren WIlliams (ADP 35, RB14)
