Ward's new coaching staff and WR upgrades offer upside, but Week 1 caution warranted.

Ward was flat-out bad as a passer last season (5.8 AY/A, 59.8% completion rate, league-high 55 sacks) and paltry as a runner (39-159-2 rushing). However, with a new coaching staff (HC Robert Saleh, OC Brian Daboll), a renovated WR room (Carnell Tate and Wan'Dale Robinson to go with Calvin Ridley), and natural second-year improvement, Ward could be a regularly viable superflex option this season. In a revenge game against his former team, Saleh could look to embarrass the Jets defense by pouring on points. The game total is only 38.5, but Freedman has the over as a four-star bet with a projection of 41.8. Freedman cautions that Ward could still suck in Week 1 and advises against starting him in Guillotine Leagues.
