Fantasy Football: The Top 10 Rookie Wide Receivers for 2017
Corey Davis was the first wideout taken in this year's NFL Draft, but should he be the first rookie receiver off the board in your fantasy football draft?

8. JuJu Smith-Schuster, Pittsburgh Steelers

Average Draft Position: Undrafted

Projected Fantasy Points: 48.33 (WR95)

Staying with those rookies going undrafted, Juju Smith-Schuster is another guy who will likely be blocked from big production in his first season. Not only does he have Antonio Brown, Martavis Bryant and Eli Rogers ahead of him, but he also will play in an offense where the starting running back -- Le'Veon Bell -- could see nearly 100 targets (Bell had 94 targets in 12 games in 2015).

Without a doubt, playing time and looks will be hard to come by in the high-powered Pittsburgh Steelers' offense, but our numbers still like Smith-Schuster to haul in 28 catches for 360 yards and 2 touchdowns on the other end of the Ben Roethlisberger-led passing attack. Keep your eyes peeled -- he could be an injury away from a decent fantasy premiere.
