Kenny Stills, Miami Dolphins

ADP: 10.10 (WR 48)

Kenny Stills has been one of the NFL's best big-play threats for a few seasons now. Part of that is his ability to convert end zone targets into touchdowns, of which he had 10 in 2017. Part of it is that he's just deep downfield when he gets targeted. He finished ninth in air yards in 2017, and that led to some chances in and near the end zone.

Despite just 10 red zone targets and 1 from plays starting inside the 10, Stills had 25 targets thrown his way when he was 20 yards from scoring or closer (including the 10 end-zone targets) and 18 when he was within 10 yards of the end zone.

Jarvis Landry is vacating 9 end zone targets, 23 red-zone targets, and 14 targets on plays starting from inside the 10. Stills has room to cash in both on deep plays and extra volume from red zone plays.

Stills had a strong connection with Matt Moore (10.56 adjusted yards per attempt the past two seasons, via RotoViz) in comparison to his tenure with Ryan Tannehill (6.95 adjusted yards per attempt since 2015), but Tannehill did rank 11th in quarterback rating on deep attempts in 2016.

Miami is without 49.4% of last year's targets, and DeVante Parker's Week 1 status is already up in the air.

All of this plus Stills' tenure in South Beach (105 targets and entering his fourth year with the team) suggests that he will continue to get deep passes thrown his way, with potential for an even bigger red zone role, as well.
