2020 Fantasy Outlook
Hopkins' 2019 season wasn't what you had hoped for in the middle of the first round, but it was a far cry from the disastrous campaigns of Le'Veon Bell or David Johnson. Hopkins played through a rib injury for a good chunk of the year and sat out the regular-season finale, but he still managed a 104-1,165-7 campaign in his age-27 season. The biggest difference between 2018 and 2019 was the efficiency - Hopkins dropped from 13.7 YPC and 9.6 YPT to 11.2 and 7.8, respectively. Maybe it was the injury, or maybe Hopkins is slowing down in his late prime, but he simply stopped making big plays - only one of his 150 targets went for 40-plus yards, and 16 went for 20 or more yards. At 6-1, 212, Hopkins has good size and vies with Michael Thomas for the best hands in the game. His body control and toe tapping on the sidelines are second to none. Hopkins has never been especially fast - 4.57 40 at the combine - but his superior route running and ball skills have more than made up for it. Surprisingly, Hopkins didn't see much red-zone work last year (13 targets, T-26th), which largely explains why he scored only seven times. (In 2018, he saw 25 red-zone looks and scored 11 TDs.) Hopkins isn't huge, but he has ideal red-zone skills, so expect some positive regression both in opportunity and output. Surprisingly, the Texans traded their star wideout to the Cardinals for the aforementioned Johnson in March, setting up Hopkins in what's likely to be one of the faster-paced and more prolific passing offenses in the league. With training camps possibly delayed, there's some risk in taking a receiver with a new city, team and quarterback, but Kyler Murray is a rising star, and Hopkins should be his top target ahead of holdovers Larry Fitzgerald and Christian Kirk.

Held in check with Murray injury
Hopkins caught four of his 10 targets for 35 yards during Sunday's 18-7 loss to the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Hopkins still attracted a robust number of offensive looks in what turned out to be the Cardinals' 2020 finale, but a first-quarter injury to Kyler Murray (ankle) put a dent in the star receiver's output. With Murray unavailable for more than 40 minutes of game action before his fourth-quarter return, Hopkins produced his second-lowest yardage total of the 2020 campaign. Despite a down performance to close out his eighth pro season, Hopkins carries a fourth consecutive Pro Bowl nod, 115 receptions, 1,407 yards and six touchdowns out of his debut campaign with the Cardinals. He's under contract with Arizona for four more seasons, providing ample time for him and his 23-year-old signal-caller to continue strengthening chemistry.

Jerry Donabedian dives into 2021 NFL best ball, picking 12th in his first draft of the year. With running backs flying off the board in the early rounds, there was value to be had at QB and WR.

It was mostly a quiet season for Jared Cook, but he solidified his role over the past month and should be a big part of the Saints' passing attack in the playoffs.

The Colts need to beat the Jaguars to have a shot at the playoffs, and RotoWire's Andrew Laird is expecting them to ride Jonathan Taylor there.

Hopkins might not be the biggest or fastest receiver in the league, but he's one of the best. Coming off a volume-driven 2017, Hopkins took his efficiency to new heights last year with 194 more yards on 11 fewer targets. The result was a career high 9.6 YPT, good for sixth among the league's 28 100-target wideouts. At 6-1, 212, and with average speed (he ran a 4.57 at the combine but a 4.46 at his Pro Day), Hopkins excels with precise route running, unmatched body control, situational awareness and the best hands in the game (he caught 115 passes with only two drops last year). Hopkins can make the big play (four catches of 40-plus yards, T-11th), but his bread and butter is the intermediate route (23 catches of 20-plus, 4th, and with an average target depth of 11.5 yards, 7th). He also sees plenty of work in the red zone - his 25 targets inside the 20 ranked fourth, his 15 inside the 10 first, and his nine inside the five also first, i.e., his second straight season with double-digit TDs was no fluke. Hopkins returns as the team's unquestioned No. 1 receiver, with a quality quarterback in Deshaun Watson and perfect complementary targets in Will Fuller (to stretch the field) and Keke Coutee (to man the slot). Neither is a threat to Hopkins' overall volume or dominant red-zone role. Hopkins suffered a sprained AC joint in his shoulder during a playoff loss to the Colts, and while he seems to have made a full recovery during the offseason, an ankle injury sent him to the PUP list for the start of training camp.
