Wide Receiver Rank: #45
Overall: #171
Jenkins had his best season of his career, posting a career-high 777 yards. The Falcons had a much better all-around offense, which benefitted Jenkins with some more chances. Jenkins was a big-play threat, averaging 15.5 yards per game. He should continue to start opposite Roddy White in an emerging Falcons offense. Jenkins has very good size and can stretch the field in a hurry. He also has improving hands, which has helped his production in recent seasons.

You would think Jenkins would be a great red-zone target with his size, but he has just 17 touchdowns in five seasons. His yardage totals could go up some as Matt Ryan improves this year, but counting on Jenkins being anything more than a reserve for your team is a mistake. |

| The Associated Press reports Atlanta Falcons WR Michael Jenkins has yet to record a 100-yard receiving game. He has 135 career catches for 1,595 yards and 14 touchdowns. Jenkins is looking to have a breakout season. "All of us (wide receivers) pus each other to improve some part of our game every time out there," Jenkins said. "You can say it's my turn (to breakout), but I feel like it's always been my turn. At some point, though, you've got to just go play football and stop talking about it." |
| Fantasy Impact: We doubt Jenkins comes through this season. |
