Bold Predictions: AFC East Edition

“You have to take your own bold approach, and if you do you will be rewarded with success. Or calamitous failure. That can happen too.”

In these columns, I’m running through all 32 NFL teams and making a bold fantasy football and/or statistical prediction for each one. When January comes around I’ll either be really, really ridiculously good looking or I’ll end up losing my 308 Twitter followers 😥 Please don’t draft your fantasy team based on these, or do, I don’t care.

DeVante Parker 2015 Fantasy Outlook

DeVante Parker’s an athletic freak, standing at 6’3″, he’s a lot like DeAndre Hopkins. He does his best work when the ball’s in the air, jumping over defenders to make tough catches with a Michael Jordan via Space Jam type wing span. Parker’s only dropped three passes since his sophomore season in 2012.

Unfortunately, offseason foot surgery has left his Week 1 status up in the air. Missing OTAs and training camp’s a big blow for a rookie, but if there’s a guy I would bet on to have an Odell Beckham Jr. type of return and breakout, it would be Parker.
