Yahoo Fantasy Football on AJ Barner
From the article
Barner took a big step forward in his second season, finishing 16th in receptions among tight ends (52), 20th in receiving yards (519) and eighth in touchdowns (six). He was a top-15 fantasy tight end eight different weeks, with six of those landing him inside the top 10. Despite playing through injuries, the former fourth-round pick even made his mark in the Super Bowl with a 4-54-1 stat line. A week later, Barner underwent shoulder and ankle surgeries, which he's still rehabbing from. The good news is that he was already working off to the side with trainers during OTAs and reports have him as a 'ascending' player in the offense so far at training camp.
STACKED’s take
Barner showed TE1 upside in Year 2; rehabbing surgeries but trending up at training camp.
Barner took a significant step forward in his second season, finishing 16th in receptions (52), 20th in receiving yards (519), and 8th in touchdowns (6), with top-15 finishes in eight different weeks and six top-10 weeks. Despite playing through injuries and undergoing shoulder and ankle surgeries post-Super Bowl, Barner is already working off to the side with trainers during OTAs and is reported as an 'ascending' player in the offense at training camp. With Seattle's offense projecting to remain very similar to last year's scheme despite a change at offensive coordinator, Barner has an opportunity to make another jump in Year 3 as a big part of the passing attack.
