The NFL is already in training camps, which means that fantasy football managers must start prepping for draft day for the upcoming season.






Although fantasy league requires consistent knowledge of the sport to succeed in, there is no denying the role numbers play in the process. Here's a look at some key stats that must be kept in mind before heading into the season, as compiled by Tristan H Cockcroft of ESPN:

  • Justin Jefferson, Drake London, Sutton, Tee Higgins, Tyreek Hill, Jordan Addison, and Rome Odunze are the only seven receivers to see at least 15 red-zone targets, 10 yards average depth of target, and an average of 30 routes run per game last season.

  • DJ Moore has a league-leading 10 catches as a culmination of the past three seasons taken cumulatively.

  • Courtland Sutton is the only player in the NFL to have 12 end zone targets in each of the past three seasons.
