 Kevin RobertsNFL Soup | “AJ still has the goods, and Hopkins coming on could help with double teams.” | “I can't see Fitzgerald having two bad seasons in a row. Carson Palmer to the rescue!” |
| Tommy Rowan Juan Elway | “A yardage and reception beast, but he STILL hasn't EVER reached double digit TDs.” | “Carson Palmer isn't great by any means, but he will look like a HOFer after the crap that the Cardinals have trotted out since Kurt Warner retired.” |
| Staff Rankings FFLockerRoom | “Johnson was able to stay healthy in 2012 and in doing so produced his 4th seasons with at least 100-plus receptions as a Bounce Back player in 2012. Johnson should be viewed as a low-end No.1 Fantasy WR in PPR formats and a SOLID No.2 Fantasy WR in standard leagues worth drafting as early as late-3rd Round and into the 4th as a Top 15 Wide Receiver.” | “BOUNCE BACK PLAYER of the YEAR prediction! Owners should consider Fitzgerald a solid No. 2 Fantasy WR that we can expect to return to 80 reception/1,000 yard and 7 TD form that is worth drafting as early as Round 4 in the majority of all leagues.” |
| Chet Gresham The Fake Football | “Finished last season strong. Still one of the best in the biz.” | “He's too good to be held down again and Palmer will help a little.” |
| Derek Lofland Fantasy Football Maniax | “I was very unimpressed with Johnson's 7th overall ranking. He did finish with 112 receptions for 1,598 yards, but he had only four receiving touchdowns. There were too many games where he did not play like a WR1 for my liking.” | “Fitzgerald had horrible quarterback play and was the 42nd ranked fantasy receiver and the second ranked WR on his team, as he finished with 71 receptions for 798 yards and four touchdowns. That should change with Carson Palmer throwing him the ball in 2013.” |
| Kyle Wachtel Forensic Fantasy | “Still padding a HOF career” | “Foor rises significantly w/ Palmer; much safer WR2 w/ potential for major rebound” |
