Ask the Expert Question from Fantasy Index magazine: Which currently low value FF player do you value?


Which player, currently low in fantasy value, do you believe will emerge as a significant fantasy starter over the course of the exhibition season?

I will give you two WRs and both of them are named Baldwin. Jonathan Baldwin (KC WR) is a 2nd year WR who finally gets to play with a starter QB (Matt Cassel) not the backup’s backup; plus Dwayne Bowe has some holdout issues and could be a trade candidate. Jonathan at WR60 offers plenty of upside with little downside. The other Baldwin WR (Doug, WR52) plays for SEA and unfortunately I see them running quite a bit this year. The bright side is he only has Sidney “Injury risk” Rice and a recently signed Braylon Edwards to compete with for balls. He offers a great upside as well. As a deep sleeper in the last round, take a flyer on the other Steve Smith (STL WR), who could be the starter on day one. Watch these position battles closely!
