Summary

Wide Receiver Rank: #75   
Overall: #220


Simpson got the most playing time of his career and responded with his best numbers to date. He had more than 700 yards and caught 50 passes. He more than doubled his previous best in receptions and yards. Simpson had three 100-yard games. He was a little boom or bust, though, having seven games with less than 30 yards. He faces jail time this offseason for an off the field incident and will serve a three-game suspension to start the season. But he has some talent and should get a chance to play some role with the Vikings in 2012. Heck, he could even start if you consider his competition for playing time in Minnesota. Simpson is a deep threat with pretty good size and speed. He lacks some strength, but proved last season he is finally improving his route running and could be a starter in this league with the right team.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
His suspension doesn't help his value, missing some key time early in the year. But he is capable of the big game when playing so he might be worth a late-round grab if you have some stability at receiver in front of him. He could still get 500 or so yards with a few scores despite the missed time.
