Here’s our expert outlook and rankings for D.J. Chark Jr.
I’d stay far away from D.J. Chark. His vertical game with Jared Goff does not project well. Goff’s average depth of throw has decreased over the last four seasons, with his most recent 2021 mark (6.8) ranking dead last among 38 qualifying quarterbacks.
During Chark’s fantasy WR17 season in 2019, he ranked sixth in the NFL in catches of 20-plus air yards (13) before his injury. Goff has averaged 13 completions of 20-plus air yards the last two seasons.
Chark screams like he will be used more like a vertical field stretcher decoy that will open up targets for Amon-Ra St. Brown, running backs and tight ends underneath.
