Wide Receiver Rank: #33
Overall: #140
Hester is becoming more and more a part of the Bears offense. In fact, he should be the No. 1 receiver for the Bears this season, an offense that should be improved with Jay Cutler at quarterback. Hester had an encouraging finish to last season, getting 50-plus yards in four of his last six games. Hester more than doubled his numbers from the previous season, finishing with 51 receptions for 665 yards. His route running really improved last season, and Hester's hands are getting better and better. He is a big-play threat with the ball in his hands because of his top speed and moves. And Hester remains a prolific return man, having 11 return scores in three seasons.

Hester has much more value heading into this season, especially with Cutler throwing him passes. He seems a pretty good bet to get 1,000 yards and seven or so touchdowns. He has that potential. So consider him a solid No. 2 for fantasy teams. |
