Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz on Josh Downs

From the video

I love Josh DS... Tyler Warren last year, there's a reason why he was getting fed more often than Josh DS each and every week out there... if and when the Colts do go out there and sign one of these veteran receivers, Stefon Diggs, Kieran Allen, Debo Samuel... It's going to hurt Josh Downs.

Warren got more targets than Downs last year; vet WR signing would hurt

JJ Zachariason expresses preference for Josh Downs but acknowledges Tyler Warren was fed more often than Downs each week last season; Downs' target share is at risk if the Colts sign a veteran wide receiver (Stefon Diggs, Kieran Allen, or Debo Samuel), as he would be pushed out of two-receiver sets to a meaningful degree, making Warren the safer focal point.
