McConkey's value inflated by McDaniel hype; target competition limits upside.
Ladd McConkeyWRLAC
McConkey's value has been inflated by hype around Mike McDaniel as new OC and depth chart questions, with some managers ranking him top-12 to top-16. However, Keenan Allen's departure will be offset by increased running back targets, Tre Harris role expansion, Brennan Thompson absorbing 30-40 targets, and two new tight ends (David Njoku and Charlie Kolar) expected to play roles behind Oronde Gadsden. Pair him with another strong asset to upgrade rather than hold at inflated value.
