Nabers arguably surpassed expectations for even a sixth overall pick last year, catching 109 passes in 15 games despite being one of the youngest players in his draft class. If not for a concussion costing him Weeks 5 and 6, he would've led the NFL in targets and set a rookie record for receptions. As is, Nabers finished second among WRs in targets rate (32.4 percent of routes) and third in receptions, although the yardage numbers were less impressive (11.0 per catch, 7.1 per target) for reasons that mostly seem to be no fault of his own. The concern for fantasy is that Nabers may be in a bad situation again this season, catching passes from Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston and/or Jaxson Dart. There aren't many concerns about Nabers himself, with the strong rookie year supporting pre-draft expectations that his 4.35 speed would play equally well as a downfield threat and as a YAC weapon. The combination of elite speed and agility in a thick frame (6-0, 200) is reminiscent of Cincinnati's Ja'Marr Chase, who offers a fair comparison for Nabers' ceiling if ever paired with a top passer. For now, we'll likely have to settle for big-time volume in a subpar offense, hoping Nabers' freakish talent shines through often enough to pay off a hefty draft price.
