Conner has rushed for six or more TDs in each of the past four seasons, and this 2024 Cardinals team is the best offense he has played with since arriving in Arizona. Even with Trey Benson being there now, Conner is still the RB1 in this offense. He will get plenty of red zone touches, and I can even see a scenario in which he is traded to a team like the Cowboys at the trade deadline, where he would become their number 1 in what is also a high-powered offense.
In his first season as a starting TE last year, Ferguson caught exactly five touchdown passes, and he is only going to get better this season, his third year in the league and his second as a full-time player. Furthermore, with the Cowboys’ lack of run game, Ferguson should see more targets in this offense. As it stands now, he is the number 2 target in the Cowboys’ passing game behind only CeeDee Lamb.
McLaurin came up just short of this number in 2023, catching only 4 TD passes. In the two years prior, though, he caught 5 TD passes each season, and I am willing to bet on him exceeding that total this year now that he is paired up with Jaden Daniels. Daniels is going to have this offense moving up and down the field, and you can bet that he will be looking for his number-one target in McLaurin when things get tight in the red zone.
Engram has topped this number in each of his first two seasons in Jacksonville, and there is no reason why he won’t be able to do it for a third time in a row. He is the number one option in the Jags’ passing game, and if Trevor Lawrence is healthy, he can bounce back, which only boosts Engram’s chances.
