The Ringer’s 2022 Fantasy Football Rankings If O’Connell treats Jefferson as his new team’s Cooper Kupp, that would give the talented receiver (who caught 111 passes for 1,540 yards and 18 touchdowns his final season at LSU while lining up almost exclusively in the slot) more opportunities to soak up targets and truly explode in fantasy. That could be a massive boon for Jefferson, who should get the opportunity to move to the slot at a higher rate after running about 70 percent of his routes from the outside in 2021, per PFF. The third-year pass catcher has been extolling the virtues of new head coach Kevin O’Connell’s scheme this offseason, which is a departure from the team’s “ old-style” offense under Mike Zimmer and should feature a more spread-out, pass-heavy tack. Jefferson finished as the WR4 in PPR scoring last year but brings realistic overall WR1 potential in 2022 as the Vikings adopt a new-look, Rams-style offense.
I’m going to fudge it a little bit here because Jonathan Taylor and Christian McCaffrey are clearly my two favorite first-round picks, but if I’m not blessed with a top-two pick, Jefferson is my guy. First Round (Picks 1-12) The Pick: WR Justin Jefferson, Minnesota Vikings (ADP WR2, 6th overall) Honorable Mention: RB Dalvin Cook, Minnesota Vikings (ADP RB6, 8th overall) Using FantasyPros average draft position (ADP) lists for PPR scoring, here are a few of my favorite fantasy picks― My Guys―in every round. I never go into a draft with a rigid, hard-line plan for who to take in any given round-it’s far too difficult to predict what your league mates will do-but I do have a few of my top targets in mind when the timer for the first pick starts. Fantasy football drafts are chaotic events that require on-your-toes decision-making and a vision for how you want to build your team.
