Fantasy Football: Players To Fade In The Top 50 

WR Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams

I love Puka as a player, but he is going inside the first round right now because of last season’s success. I feel that it is going to be hard for him to replicate, especially if Cooper Kupp is healthy.. last season, one of the biggest reasons for PUka’s success was that Kupp missed the first chunk of the season, and Stafford seemed to target him on every play. I still think Puka has a great season; I just don’t like him at his ADP. 

WRs Nico Collins/Stefon Diggs, Houston Texans

Both guys are great players in a great offense with an elite young quarterback in CJ Stroud. My problem is that Tank Dell is also there, plus Dalton Schultz and now Joe Mixon. I feel like there aren’t enough targets to go around for everyone to have big games consistently, and I don’t want to invest such an early pick on either one of these guys because of it. 

RB Alvin Kamara, New Orleans Saints 

Firstly, I am not a fan of the Saints offense this season. Secondly, Kamara isn’t the same RB he used to be. He has wear and tear, and it shows. he is still going to be productive, but I worry about whether or not he will be an RB1 in 12-team formats, even with his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield. I think the Saints are going to give Miller a lot more work than they did last year, and that is going to hurt Kamara’s production, too.
