Wide Receiver Rank: #87 Overall: #249
Gaffney enjoyed another productive season with the Patriots, filling their No. 3 receiver role. His numbers the last two seasons are eerily similar, averaging 37 receptions for 459 yards. He can be hit or miss, though, getting 80-plus yards three times but going without a catch five other times. Gaffney is a speedy receiver with good hands. He does a good job of finding room in tight spaces. And his move to Denver should be pretty seamless. He knows the offense well and should be the No. 3 or 4 option for the Broncos.

Gaffney has more than 500-receiving yards just once in his career, so don't expect a sudden upswing in production. Another season with around 450 yards and a couple scores seems about right. He'll have some big games and disappear in others, making him an iffy fantasy option. |

| Denver Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels said the league requires the team to put out an initial depth chart for their first preseason game, but was quick to point out that is not the team's official depth chart. 'We don't have any starters right now,' McDaniels said. 'We have competition everywhere.' He said WR Brandon Marshall was listed on the second team because he has a personal situation he needs to attend to and won't be able to play. 'Jabar Gaffney is going to start in his place. It is very simple. There is nothing other than that to that entire story,' McDaniels added. |
| Fantasy Impact: We expect a lot to change between now and the start of the season. |
