Wide Receiver Rank: #40
Overall: #164
Holt had his worst season since his rookie year, finishing with fewer than 1,000 yards for the first time in eight seasons. The Rams didn't look Holt's way too much compared to past years, though. Holt is 33 years old, so his best years are likely behind him. But he still has very good hands and runs good routes. Holt just doesn't have the speed he once had in past years. He should move into a starting role for the Jaguars, a team that is more run-first than Holt is accustomed.

Holt isn't a No. 1 receiver anymore, but might be worth taking a chance on as a low-end No. 2 or No. 3. He can bounce back with more chances. Remember, he was as steady as any receiver in the game for eight seasons. He can near 1,000 yards this season. |

| Michael C. Wright, of The Florida Times-Union, reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt showed signs of frustration with the play calling during the team's Week 2 game. 'I'm a competitor. So there's going to be times where I'm frustrated, and I'll voice that frustration,' Holt said. 'It wasn't at anybody, at any particular person or any particular thing. It was just a matter of wanting to win and expressing that. That's not really that big of a deal. I'm just trying to get us going and get us in the position where we can win.' |
| Fantasy Impact: This isn't the first time Holt has done something like this. We wouldn't make too much of it. |

| Vic Ketchman, of Jaguars.com, reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt will be counted on to be a dependable target for QB David Garrard. With a roster full of young, inexperienced wide receivers, Holt will need to be the primary option amongst the receivers until the other young wideouts are ready to pick up the slack. |

| Vito Stellino, of The Florida Times-Union, reports the Jacksonville Jaguars believe WR Torry Holt will make a major impact both on and off the field this season. 'I think the one thing that Torry has brought is a level of trust for David (Garrard), so he's aware that at third-and-7, he's going to run more than seven yards. I think that'll be a good thing for David,' general manager Gene Smith said. Holt also has been working with several of the team's young receivers this offseason. |

| Michael C. Wright, of The Times-Union, reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt plans to help mentor the team's young wide receivers but said he also has to focus on his job, too. Holt says people can't ask him to turn the team around, as he feels that would be unfair. 'What is fair is I can come in and be a pro, go about my job like I've always done. Hopefully, guys will see that, but into it and try to do the same thing,' Holt said. He noted he has to look at it as all of the younger receivers are coming in to take his job. |

| The Associated Press reports Jacksonville Jaguars WR Torry Holt has high expectations entering the 2009 season with his new team. 'My goal is always 90-plus catches, 1,300-plus yards and 10-plus touchdowns,' Holt said. 'That's always been my goal, and those goals won't change. You have to set them pretty high to give yourself something to strive for and reach for. Now, will I reach those goals? Who knows. Do I have the potential to reach those goals? Absolutely. Will I be given those opportunities? I hope I will be given those opportunities in Jacksonville.' |
| Fantasy Impact: Nice to set your goals high, but Holt isn't likely to reach these. He'll be lucky to reach 1,000 yards. |
