Brian Thomas Jr. Could be Even Better in 2025

Tuesday, July 15, 6:05 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. burst onto the NFL scene last year after being taken with the No. 23 overall pick out of LSU. Even on a bad team with spotty quarterback play, Thomas managed to catch 87 passes for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns in 17 games (16 starts). The Athletic's Jeff Howe thinks that if the Trevor Lawrence-Liam Coen pairing works out the way it's envisioned, Thomas could be even better. Rookie first-round wideout Travis Hunter will be on the other side of the field drawing attention away from Thomas, too. It's not a stretch to think that Thomas could become a household name in his sophomore season in 2025, which is why RotoBaller has him ranked as a top-10 fantasy pass-catcher. The 22-year-old had si straight games with at least 10 targets and 76 yards a year ago.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Up to 220 Pounds

Wednesday, July 23, 6:05 PM

PHNX Sports' Bo Brack reports that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is listed at 220 pounds at training camp this year on the team's latest roster after last being listed at 209 pounds. It was reportedly earlier this offseason that Harrison appeared to have bulked up, and now we know how much. The 22-year-old from Ohio State had some pretty high expectations placed on him in his first NFL season after being taken fourth overall by the Cardinals. He might not have lived up to most folks' expectations in Year 1, but he still provided 62 receptions for 885 yards and eight touchdowns in 17 games (16 starts) in his rookie campaign. The Cardinals are expecting Harrison to be even better in Year 2, and adding muscle will certainly help him win more downfield. Fantasy managers should target him as a WR2 with upside if he takes the next step.
