51-75 could all rotate spots before the opening of the season. This group consists mainly of team’s deep WR2/WR3 prospects.

Benn enters directly into the WR1 spot in Tampa.

Rookies to climb ranks by season’s start?Golden Tate and Arrelious Benn will both hit the field immediately. Tate is in the better situation for he won’t enter as Seattle’s WR1, easing pressure and allowing him to work against less superior coverage. Housh is aging and has struggles since being in Seattle. Detroit trading to get Nate Burleson opens up plenty of targets to go around. With a re-vamped running game and Matt Hasselbeck looking healthy, Tate could impress in his virgin season.  Benn instantly becomes Tampa’s go to guy. This bodes well for future fantasy success, but rooks who hop directly into the 1 spot often struggle as the acclimate to the pro game. Fellow rookie Mike Williams may also see starting time. Williams may make his way onto this list by preseason. He may be in a better situation to  make fantasy noise in 2010. Tampa is young at WR and QB. The foundation looks to be in place, but fantasy stats may struggle while the group experiences growing pains.

Will McNabb take Devin Thomas’ game to the next level?With Santana Moss possibly facing suspension for HGH use, Thomas will slip into the WR1 spot. Rumors surfaced early in OTA’s around McNabb campaigning for T.O. to come to town. If McNabb is asking for T.O., you know something is wrong. Thomas has been an overall underachiever. He’s shown glimpses at times but work ethic and consistency have been absent. The talent is there, but it has not translated to game play. He has ideal size at 6’2″ and 220lbs. Coach Shanahan should be able to harness Thomas’ ability and keep him focused on football. He’s had hamstring concerns throughout his career, but could take the next step with a true franchise quarterback under center.

Wide Open: The Rams starting WR positions are up for grabs.Donnie Avery, Laurent Robinson, Mardy Gilyard and Keenan Burton will all compete for targets. Avery, Robinson and Burton all experienced injuries last season. Gilyard’s already been sidelined in OTA’s. Avery should open the season as the primary receiver, but both Robinson and Burton played well in spot duty in 09. The offense will once again fall on Steven Jackson’s shoulders, but whom ever emerges from this group could be a bargain buy come draft day… a WR1, is a WR1 even if they are a Ram.

James Jones will compete with Jordy Nelson for the attention of Aaron Rodgers.

Waiting for a chance: James Jones vs. Jordy Nelson.The Green Bay Packers are a young and talented team. Aaron Rodgers is the next true elite quarterback. He will be atop fantasy QB ranks for years to come. Ryan Grant is a good running back, not great. He’ll ease just enough pressure off the passing game, but is not good enough to be the focus of the offense. The Pack will win games on Rodgers’ arm. Donald Driver is one of the most well respected vets in the game, but one can only escape the grasp of Father Time for so long. Who will be his successor? Jordy Nelson and James Jones have both shown promise. Jones appears to be the more explosive play-maker, but struggled with hands consistency last season. He had only 29 catches on the season, but 5 of them went for scores. Nelson is more sure-handed and gets a bump in return heavy formats. Greg Jennings and Jermichael Finley will be the primary receivers, but whom ever slips into Donald Driver’s spot will find themselves starting for one of the best passing offenses in the NFL.
