At #6 on my list is Chicago Bears receiver Brandon Marshall. Marshall and fellow receiver Alshon Jeffery combine to make one of the top receiving duos in the NFL.
Marshall is a very similar receiver to Jeffery. They are both tall, fast, and playmakers. Marshall is the better player, due to his experience and his ability to come down with about every ball thrown his way.
The problem with having two elite receivers on one team is that they both want the ball more than they get it. Fantasy owners with Marshall on their team may not be thrilled when they see Jeffery waltz into the end zone.
However, that doesn’t mean you should avoid Marshall or Jeffery. Both will still get the ball a lot, as evident by Marshall’s 12 trips to the end zone in 2013. Nonetheless, Marshall is not a receiver worth reaching for. If he falls to the 4th or 5th round, don’t hesitate to grab him, because he will make people regret not taking him sooner.
