AFC South


Alec Pierce is correctly valued at his ADP of 271 as the consensus #264 overall player. Pierce is not a focus of the the Colts' offense as their WR4. As the consensus #95 WR, he's only relevant in deep leagues. Pierce is projected for 319 yards and 1.9 TDs on 19.9 receptions, which is 8.8% of the total for Colts WRs.

Gould might see limited usage as the 5th-ranked WR on the Colts. At #160 in our WR rankings, he's only relevant in deep leagues. He's projected for 70 yards and 0.3 TDs on 6.2 receptions, which is 2.7% of the total for Colts WRs. Indianapolis has the 15th-best wide receiver schedule.

Joe Flacco won't begin the season as the Colts' starting QB - that honor belongs to Anthony Richardson. As such, he's not worth drafting in all but the deepest of 2QB leagues. Flacco is expected to earn 13% of his projected 18 fantasy points by rushing. While rushing is in his toolbox, it's not a major source of his fantasy value. Projected for a 1.9 touchdown-to-interception ratio, he isn't not likely to melt down often.

Anthony Richardson is a high-end option as our 6th-ranked QB, but won't come particularly cheap with an ADP in the 5th round. Richardson is expected to earn 33% of his projected 293 fantasy points by rushing. That level of involvement in the Colts' running game adds significant fantasy value. Projected for a 1.7 touchdown-to-interception ratio, Richardson carries more interception risk than is entirely comforatable.

Jonathan Taylor is correctly valued at his ADP of 12 as the consensus #10 overall player. With a projection of 16.8 carries and 2.3 catches per game, Taylor has a strong workload that's hard for running backs to come by. He leads Evan Hull and Trey Sermon on Indianapolis's depth chart. The Colts have the 9th-worst running back schedule.

It would be a bit of a reach if you drafted Michael Pittman Jr. at his ADP of 24 since his ECR is 42. Brandon Aiyuk (ADP 34, ECR 15) or Deebo Samuel Sr. (ADP 26, ECR 17) might be a better value. Pittman is the top target on the Colts, with Josh Downs and Adonai Mitchell behind him. Ranked #23 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, you'll be able to depend on him each week. Pittman is projected for 1,080 yards and 4.4 TDs on 97.3 receptions, which is 42.9% of the total for WRs on the Colts. Indianapolis has the 15th-best schedule for WRs.

Josh Downs is the second-best WR on the Colts, trailing Michael Pittman Jr. At #59 in our WR rankings, he won't usually be a fantasy starter. He is projected to catch 56.4 receptions for 652 yards and 2.7 TDs, which is 24.8% of the total for Colts WRs. Indianapolis has the 15th-best wide receiver schedule. The market has Downs correctly valued at an ADP of 140, compared to an overall ECR of 148.

As the consensus #159 overall player, Adonai Mitchell is a reasonable pick at his ADP of 161. Mitchell is the third best WR on the Colts, behind Michael Pittman Jr. and Josh Downs. As the consensus #63 WR, he won't usually be a fantasy starter. He's projected to catch 47.1 receptions for 688 yards and 3.6 TDs, which is 20.8% of the total for WRs on the Colts. The Colts have the 15th-best wide receiver schedule.

Jelani Woods is projected for just 299 yards and 2.1 TDs on 24.1 receptions. As our #35 TE, Woods is best left on the waiver wire. The market has Woods correctly valued at an ADP of 261, compared to an overall ECR of 268. Indianapolis has the 12th-best tight end schedule.

Category: Preseason Insights


As the consensus #49, Kylen Granson is not worth drafting. Granson is projected for just 287 yards and 1.6 TDs on 24.3 receptions. Jelani Woods is the starting tight end in Indianapolis, which will imit Granson's value.

Category: Preseason Insights


Will Mallory is projected to catch only 0 receptions for 0 yards and 0 touchdowns. At rank 57 among tight ends, Mallory is not worth drafting. Mallory is not Anthony Richardson's first or even second choice at tight end, with Jelani Woods and Kylen Granson on the roster.

Parris Campbell is a fair value at his ADP of 220 as the consensus #210 overall player. Campbell is the #3 wide receiver on the Colts, behind Michael Pittman Jr. and Alec Pierce. Ranked #79 in our consensus wide receiver rankings, he will ride the fantasy bench most weeks. Campbell is projected to catch 49.1 receptions for 598 yards and 3.7 TDs, which is 22.7% of the workload for WRs on the Colts. The Colts have the 6th-best schedule for wide receivers.

Dezmon Patmon might see limited usage as the 5th-ranked WR on the Colts. At #161 in our WR rankings, he's not a real fantasy asset. He's projected to catch 6.0 receptions for 74 yards and 0.6 TDs, which is 2.8% of the total for WRs on the Colts. The Colts have the 6th-best wide receiver schedule.

At a projected workload of 0.9 carries and 0.2 receptions per game, Ty'Son Williams isn't someone you need to draft. He's behind both Jonathan Taylor and Nyheim Hines on the running back chart for the Colts.

Category: Preseason Insights


Projected to touch the ball 2.2 times per game (1.9 rushes and 0.4 receptions), Deon Jackson is safe to leave on the waiver wire. He has some competition on the Colts' depth chart, where he trails both Jonathan Taylor and Nyheim Hines.
