5 Safe Players to Target in Your Fantasy Football Draft
Larry Fitzgerald may lack upside, but he should provide a high floor for your squad.

Kenny Britt, WR, Cleveland Browns

After a tumultuous start to his career, Kenny Britt has settled in nicely over the past few seasons. He spent three years with the Rams before joining the Cleveland Browns via free agency earlier this year. In those three years with the Rams, he only missed one game.

He finished 26th among wideouts last season, which is even more impressive since he did it with Case Keenum and Jared Goff slinging the pigskin to him. The Rams also averaged 26th in pass attempts per game in 2016.

Now, Britt will be catching passes from either Cody Kessler, Brock Osweiler, or Deshone Kizer. While this is not ideal, he's shown the ability to post a solid floor in spite of his quarterback. Last season, he averaged 8.5 standard fantasy points per game, which was right on par with Terrelle Pryor and Demaryius Thomas.

His current ADP (average draft position) is 50th among wide receivers. At this low of an ADP, there's barely any risk in drafting him, and numberFire projects Britt to finish 34th among receivers.
