Kendrick Bourne a Possible Cut-Candidate

Friday, July 10, 10:23 AM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is looking to remain relevant on his new team. Bourne signed a two-year, $12 million deal with the Cardinals during the offseason. He's currently projected as the third wideout behind Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson. Last season, Bourne recorded 37 receptions, 551 receiving yards, and zero touchdowns across 16 games (eight starts) with the San Francisco 49ers. He's a decent depth option, but is likely to get lost in the shuffle in Arizona. Bourne will be the fourth passing option with Harrison, Wilson, and tight end Trey McBride ahead of him in the pecking order. The Cardinals are also loaded at running back, so they could opt to be more run-heavy next season. Unless an injury or two happens, Bourne is unlikely to have weekly fantasy value. He belongs on the waiver wire in most 12-team formats to begin the season.

KaVontae Turpin Unlikely to Have Significant Offensive Role

Friday, July 10, 10:54 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin established himself as an elite returner this past season. He earned himself a trip to the Pro Bowl with his excellent work on special teams. He's valuable in leagues that count return yardage, but is unlikely to have much value outside of that. Turpin finished with 26 receptions, 396 receiving yards, and two touchdowns across 15 games last season. The Cowboys have brought in some competition for the third and fourth wideout roles. Turpin might get lost in the shuffle offensively, but should remain a star in the return game.
