Puka Nacua has the ceiling to be the highest PPG producer in fantasy this year.

Debra projects Puka Nacua as a season-defining player with a massive ceiling, noting he averaged 27.4 PPR points per game in healthy contests last year. By adjusting for touchdown variance, he could have averaged 26 PPR points per game, a mark rarely reached by wide receivers since 2013. Despite some draft risk concerns, Debra advocates drafting him at the 1.03, viewing him as a potential highest point-per-game producer.
