Fantasy Football Wide Receivers – Number 6: A.J. Green

2015 Stats: 86 REC 1,297 YDS 10 TDS

One of the best wide receivers on their feet is A.J. Green, who is working on his sixth season in the NFL.

Green’s lengthy body allows him to break tackles and stride up field. I do not think Green has reached his ceiling and my prediction is that he’ll approach 1,400 yards this season.

On a consistency level, Green provided decent numbers in every start last season. He’s the type of player that won’t hurt your fantasy team and can come in clutch other weekends. In other words, he’s a can’t miss fantasy player, and one that will definitely be gone in the first round.

Green’s numbers did drop off a bit last season, but only because of Andy Dalton was injured. Green still showed up each and every week and proved why he’s one of the best wide receivers in the entire league.
