It’s easy to see why people are looking for a second-year breakout season from Tennessee Titans wide receiver he’s got the measureables.
Second, 4 of his 18 catches were touchdowns last year with “Captain Checkdown†At his current 12.04 average draft position in 12-team PPR leagues, I have no problem investing in Hunter, hoping for a blowup season. But I want to point out a factor that I feel has been largely ignored regarding the Justin Hunter narrative this off-season.
The existence of Washington is the WR48 while Hunter checks in as the WR102. While this may seem odd, the Titans projected depth chart shows Washington set to start over Hunter opposite of Kendall Wright. If that changes, so will the projection.
Hunter could very well outscore Washington by season’s end and have an Alshon Jeffery-like sophomore season as some are forecasting. But as a guy without an ADP even in 14-team leagues at the moment, Washington is still a viable option in Tennessee and barring injury, remains as a possible roadblock to a Hunter blowup.
