FANTASY FOOTBALL WIDE RECEIVERS NUMBER 8: ALSHON JEFFERY

I really like Bears wide out Alshon Jeffery this season. Brandon Marshall was traded to the Jets, which means the Bears and Jay Cutler obviously feel confident enough in Jeffery to handle even more of the workload in 2015.

I see Alshon improving on his 1,133 yards and 10 touchdowns this season, which makes him an elite fantasy receiver.

Jeffery is a big target at 6-foot-4 and really proved that he is a true number one receiver last year, gaining well over 1,000 yards receiving and eclipsing double digits in touchdowns.

The Bears team is currently in a state of rebuilding their defense and I think that Cutler, Jeffery, and company will have to put the ball in the air a lot in 2015, which is music to the ears of Jeffery’s fantasy owners.

Without the presence of Marshall in the red zone, I see a lot more targets for Jeffery which should result in plenty of touchdowns next season.

I see Alshon improving on his 1,133 yards and 10 touchdowns this season, which makes him an elite fantasy receiver. Consider him a number one fantasy wide receiver in all leagues and should be drafted in the first three rounds.
