Colts Projections: What About Downs & Warren?

Has Keenan Allen been the destroyer of breakout dreams the past couple seasons? First it was rookie Rome Odunze in 2024. Boy, were we hopeful for that. Then came Ladd McConkey last year? Oh, how we recall drafting Ladd in the second round a year ago. Those non-playoff teams were a lot of fun.

Now word is that Allen has inked a deal with the Colts, and that’s just sending shivers up the spines of so many fantasy football managers. What will happen to the next steps that Josh Downs and Tyler Warren looked so set to take? Dwain McFarland updated our fantasy football projections to see how the Colts’ pass catchers will shake out. ⤵️

Kendall’s 3 Must-Draft Players

Our fantasy analysts have been running through their must-draft players for the coming season, and today it’s Kendall Valenzuela’s turn. Now, we won’t give you the names of the players—read the article, it’s really good—but maybe a couple hints to see if you guess right:

• Never caught a pass from his new QB, but already one of the best WRs he’s thrown to
• Was the No. 1 QB from Week 12 on last year
• Pretty likely he could be No. 2 pass catcher for a possible top-10 QB

Check out Kendall’s picks. ⤵️
