Irv Smith - TE

Minnesota Vikings

ESPN's Courtney Cronin expects second-year TE Irv Smith to have an expanded role this season.

Added Apr 05 12:02 pm (EST)

ESPN

Smith flashed as a rookie, catching 36-of-47 targets for 311 yards and two touchdowns while playing 60 percent of snaps. With Stefon Diggs gone, his target share is a lock to go up. Smith is still likely to open 2020 behind Kyle Rudolph, but he's set up for a Year 2 leap.

D. Henderson - RB

Rams GM Les Snead said the offense wants to "utilize more than one workhorse moving the ball, with different skill sets."

The Rams leaned heavily on Todd Gurley throughout much of the first three seasons under coach Sean McVay, but it sounds like a different approach will be taken moving forward. Darrell Henderson is widely viewed as the heir apparent in the L.A. backfield, but Malcolm Brown should also see the field quite a bit unless the Rams use another pick on a running back. Henderson was taken 70th overall last April but posted a miserable 39-147-0 rushing line as a rookie. The Rams' high-octane offense can support two backs when it comes to fantasy, but the offensive line and Jared Goff have to play better in 2020.

N/A

C. McCaffrey - RB

CAR

Panthers GM Marty Hurney said "obviously we've had internal discussions" with Christian McCaffrey's agent about an extension.

McCaffrey has the final year of his rookie deal coming this season, but the Panthers are 100% going to exercise his fifth-year team option for 2021 next month without a doubt. As a former top-10 pick, that would be worth the value of the transition tag for running backs. Kenyan Drake's transition tag with Arizona was worth over $8 million. The smart move by Carolina would be to have McCaffrey play out this year and avoid a Todd Gurley-type situation by extending him too soon only to regret it. McCaffrey is a bit different, though, as he doesn't have an injury history and is exponentially more valuable in the receiving game. Any extension would likely make McCaffrey the highest-paid running back in the league.

A. Brown - WR

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports free agent WR Antonio Brown hired Ed Wasielewski of EMG Sports as his new agent.

EMG Sports is home to notable NFL players such as Colts RB Nyheim Hines, Dolphins OT Julién Davenport and ex-Giants LB Nate Stupar. AB continues to pop up in the news on a routine basis. Last week alone we had a cameo with Lamar Jackson as well as a legal update from his January arrest. Brown hasn't remained out of the headlines much for the better part of the last few years. We wouldn't expect that to change anytime soon.
