Summary

Wide Receiver Rank: #22All Players: #69

There were some questions about his health heading into last season but Colston proved he was more than healthy, having one of his best seasons to date. He had the second most receiving yards of his career despite missing two of the first three games of the season, finishing with more than 1,100 yards for just the second time. He had four 100-yard games during the regular season and topped 100 yards in each of their two playoff games. Colston has 1,000-yard seasons all but one during his six-year NFL career. He has been a consistent force as the No .1 receiver in the Saints' offense, a role he should continue to serve this season. Colston does have some injury concerns because of past knee issues but he has played at least 14 games the last three seasons. Colston is a big target with plus speed. He still drops the occasional pass, but runs good routes and will make the tough catch in traffic. The Saints are a pass-first team that spreads the ball to a host of receivers, but Colston is a good bet to lead the receivers in targets as their No. 1 receiver.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Colston isn't quite an elite fantasy receiver, but just outside that group. His reception totals aren't among the top guys, but he will top 1,000 yards and near double-digit touchdowns. He is a serviceable No. 1 for fantasy teams.
