5 Safe Players to Target in Your Fantasy Football Draft

Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Arizona Cardinals

One of the best wideouts to ever play the game, Larry Fitzgerald is another safe player that is worth targeting. Over his 13-year career, he has missed just six games.

He ranks third on the all-time reception list, the most among active players, and if he catches 200 passes this season, he will tie Tony Gonzalez! OK, that won't happen, but Fitz can still rack up the receptions.

In a year where his quarterback Carson Palmer struggled, Fitzgerald caught 107 passes last season. That ranked him 12th among wideouts, yet he's being drafted 30th at the position for 2017.

Like many "unsexy" players, age plays a factor in their lower average draft position, but numberFire projects Fitzgerald to finish 20th among wide receivers.
