Jameis Winston like most rookies had good and bad performances last season. However, following a very poor Week 1 performance, his game level began to evolve. Winston finished the season with an overall grade that ranked 13th among quarterbacks and earned him PFF’s Rookie of the Year award. As the season went on he kept getting better and better, ranking 8th over the final seven weeks of the season. When Winston was not pressured, had the eighth-highest passing grade in the league. This is a margin spot where he can still improve. I see a very strong, dynamic duo with Mike Evans for this 2016 and next years to come where chemistry is only getting better, and to add to this decision I came with having Winston as my 6th dynasty QB you have to add the young hungry Bucs Jameis has around him, among with Evans, Doug Martin (who finished 2nd rushing yards1402) Charles Sims, Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Kenny Bell among others who are a team-base of young incredible talented players for years to come. Winston was in “learning mode” last season, I can only see him developing to become a better quarterback in the future.

Johnson ranked #1? Why Johnson over Gurley or Bell, my decision is based not on stats or data like the 65% of my calls in fantasy football, this decision is in my other 35%, guts. There’s no doubt Gurley and Bell have proved themselves as the best RBs in the league, both actually have a better AVG (Bell 4.9 and Gurley 4.8) than Johnson and they can be used outside and used as a receiver, as runners they’re amazing, and guess what so can David Johnson! David Johnson didn’t have an important role in the first 11 weeks of the season, until Week 12 that Johnson got his first start, a job he held the rest of the season, gaining a league-best 131.7 yards per game from scrimmage during that time.

My point is based on staying healthy for the next few seasons, if you stop Todd Gurley you stop the Rams, how much punishment will Gurley receive and will be able to take, let’s be honest, Rams offense depend on Gurley, I just see Rams and Gurley as a “one man wolf-pack’’. Le’Veon, he’s coming from a MCL torn season-ending injury, and most players don’t come back at the same level they left after an injury like the one Bell suffered. Meanwhile Johnson and Cardinals offense is way better than Gurley, where he doesn’t have to carry the team’s offense on his shoulders and won’t be taking as much punishment as Gurley, I see a healthier player in Johnson than Gurley the upcoming season’s, and with Bell I have my doubts about on how much he can hold 100% healthy after the injury.

Whether I’m right or wrong I will say this! I will be sitting in my mancave on my couch when the 2016 season starts and enjoy this rivalry between Johnson, Gurley and Bell and see how these 3 continue to develop into their best potential.
Amari Cooper–

SEASON	TEAM	GP	REC	TGTS	YDS	AVG	LNG	TD
2015	OAK	16	80	147	1,192	14.9	—–	8

Amari Cooper a player with an amazing speed/acceleration who stays at the top of his routes, owned the post route. Cooper in his first season in Oakland, catching for 1,070 yards and six touchdowns, developing great chemistry duo with Derek Carr which is just getting started. The former Alabama star added another feat to his outstanding rookie season by amassing the most receptions by a wide receiver, 21 years old or younger, in NFL history, still not convinced why the Uncle ranked him so high? Cooper became the first Raiders rookie wide receiver to reach 1,000 receiving yards.

Why I love and ranked Amari even higher, Carr’s passer rating improved from 76.6 to 91.1 last season, as he passed for 3,987 yards and 32 touchdowns. Carr with two years in the league, had had to learn two different systems.  “I think it helps that he doesn’t have to learn a new language again,” OC Bill Musgrave said of Derek. Carr now can only get better and Raiders have the right tools to be a great offensive, Michael Crabtree, Latavius Murray, new additions as DeAndre Washington, who I really have high expectations, among others, and all these weapons can only make young Amari a better player.

SEASON	TEAM	GP	REC	TGTS	YDS	AVG	LNG	TD
2015	WSH	16	80	108	948	11.8	—–	9

Until last year for me this tight end position was Gronk and the rest. Now we see names like Greg Olsen, Tyler Eifert, Jordan Reed etc. I personally love Reed and just not because he’s 25 years old (Gronk 27) and made 87 catches for 952 yards and 11 touchdowns as Washington’s leading receiver last season. Reeds is a TE and his production is similar to a WRs, he’s very dangerous on a lot of routes, and that’s worth gold for a TE. People might not know but Reed has a college background where he played tight end, wide receiver and even quarterback which have also helped in his development.

Jordan Reed “Honestly, I feel like playing quarterback helped me out a lot – knowing which guys were going to cover me, being able to read the defense, things like that”. I don’t think I have much more about why I like this kid so much for a near and long future, the Uncle ranked (dynasty) Jordan Reed #2.
