After the first two NFL seasons, I commonly like to check in with the prospects in terms of career arc – especially the ones that have yet to breakout. Justin Hunter fits that criteria well with tepid seasons of 6-8 PPG in 2013 and 2014. The circumstances have not been ideal in Tennessee, but Kendall Wright has at least caught a boatload of crossing routes and Delanie Walker has been a fantasy surprise at tight end, all while Hunter has made the occasional downfield play but struggled to do much else.
The Criteria
- 4-8 PPG in Year 1
- 6-10 PPG in Year 2
- +/- 8 Overall Score Points in Model
