Biggest Risers heading into 2016

[mylesduve]

I'll throw Tyrod out here. He has great reputation around the league, BUF loves him and his type skillset usually bodes well for fantasy purposes, let alone real football.

Disagree, dude was underwhelming and error-prone to begin with. I was a little surprised at the numbers he put up in his rookie year, until I watched a few games and seen how many chances he got, he only caught half of his targets.

One that I think will get overlooked is Ladarius Green, he will be a free agent, and playing somewhere else if Gates is coming back.

That doesn't mean his value will not rise. I think his inability to play because of injury allows people to forget about some of the warts and focus on Cam's stellar numbers which translate into opportunities for a guy who was going in the early rounds of a start up before the injury. When a guy misses a whole year there is a sense of "buying low" even if the price really is not much lower, if at all, than it should be. I have some concerns as well and may use this as an opportunity to sell.

Lamar Miller when he goes to Dallas

Guess you can really say any RB that is headed to Dallas...

If AP leaves min, Jerrick mckinnon /diggs are going to sky rocket.

Interesting. Why would AP leave Minnesota?

The vikings have zero future money invested.

It comes down to if theyd rather spend 10-13 million on AP, or use that money in free agency.

The vikings are holding all the cards. They can keep him, or trade/cut him with zero penalty.

Rotoworld says he has $7 million guaranteed in 2016. With or without that guarantee, I think the Vikings are keeping him. If they stuck with him thru last year's fiasco, they'll continue to support him.

[ericanadian]

over-the-cap suggests no dead money if he's cut next year, but I don't see how that's possible given that he had a signing bonus and he has another year on the contract.

[Shcritters]

Biggest risers to me are:

Langford (although the words already out... Needed to get him before Forte went out)
LGreen - stated before, either becomes the man in SD or goes somewhere else
Matt Jones - could see Alf being cut
DJohnson - obviously
Gordon - Jury's still out. Too early to write off a 1st round RB
Diggs - another year under his belt and if they open up that offense he could be top 20
Josh Gordon
DGB - starting to put it together... That offense has to come around at some point.

They paid the entire bonus prior to this year.

Im guessing after this year (which isnt all that special) AP is going to try and hold out/cry for more guaranteed money again. Just like last year.

He has a $7m roster bonus if he is on the roster on the 3rd day of the 2016 season, so he can be cut for a zero cap hit prior to then. It will therefore be resolved early, which is good.

Kevin White
Josh Gordon
Maxx Williams
Tannehill
Hyde
David Johnson
maybe Alfred Morris

[DynoScout]

I'll take a shot based on November ADP:
Allen Robinson, from 15 overall to ~8 overall
Tyler Eifert, from 45 overall to ~36 overall
David Johnson, from 60 overall to ~30 overall
Tyler Lockett, from 75 overall to ~48 overall
Thomas Rawls, from 107 overall to ~60 overall
Clive Walford, from 138 overall to ~100 overall
Jerick McKinnon, from 145 overall to ~100 overall
DeAndre Smelter, from 161 overall to ~120 overall
Crockett Gillmore, from 188 overall to ~120 overall
Doug Baldwin, from 192 overall to ~100 overall
Will Tye, from N/A to ~144 overall

[DJB]

David Johnson. He will be the feature back in Arizona and I expect his ADP to be RB3 by the middle of next season.
