Justin Forsett
ADP: 36.1
RB: 14
When Ray Rice was suspended and released by Baltimore following his legal issues last season, it looked like Bernard Pierce was going to get his shot at the starting RB job.
Then, out of the blue, Justin Forsett appeared on the scene, rushing for 1,266 yards and adding another 263 through the air. It was easily Forsett’s best season as a pro.
Now, with a new offensive coordinator in Marc Trestman, Forsett is the unquestioned starter. Can he build on the 2014 campaign and go even better this year?

Frank Gore
ADP: 41.8
RB: 17
After 10 solid years in San Francisco, Frank Gore has shuffled off to Indianapolis, where he’s already raving about the play of QB Andrew Luck. The Colts are hoping to take the next step toward a championship and they think Gore’s got enough left in the tank where his skills and leadership can help. At 32, does he have what it takes to put up the numbers to help fantasy players win championships too?

Alshon Jeffery
ADP: 26.5
WR: 10
After a slow rookie season, Alshon Jeffery exploded into fantasy relevance with an 89 catch, seven TD season in 2013 as Brandon Marshall‘s sidekick. He put up fewer yards (1,133 compared with 1,421) and catches (85 vs 89) in 2014, but boosted his TD output to 10 as he took over as the number one guy with Brandon Marshall hurt most of the season.
Marshall is gone and so is the Marc Trestman-led team that Jeffery grew up in.
Can Jeffery have the same kind of relevance as the true number one in the new offense installed by offensive coordinator Adam Gase and head coach John Fox?

Melvin Gordon
ADP: 37.9
RB: 16
It’d been a couple years since a running back was taken in the first round of the NFL draft when the St. Louis Rams took Todd Gurley with the 10th pick overall this spring. The San Diego Chargers made it two five picks later by trading up to No. 15.
Gordon was, of course, coming off of a three-year run at Wisconsin, where he ended up with 4,915 yards and 49 TDs — all the more impressive because the first of those three seasons in Madison, Gordon was a backup.
But will Gordon’s skill set translate to the NFL?

Allen Robinson
ADP: 89.7
WR: 31
Allen Robinson suffered a stress fracture in his foot during his rookie season last year, which cut short a campaign during which he caught 51 passes and made some highlight-reel catches. One beat reporter recently called him the team’s best receiver during OTAs and said he regularly made “wow” catches.
He’s emerged as the most popular fantasy pick among a collection of young wideouts on Jacksonville’s roster. Can he follow up an impressive rookie season with a fantasy-worthy second?
