XavierLegette

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Legette is eyeing a second-year leap following a rookie campaign with mixed results. The 2024 first-round pick posted a route participation of at least 59% in 11 games in his first season. He handled a healthy 21% of the targets (6.4 per game) and 30% of the team's air yards, but was limited to 39.3 yards and 9.8 fantasy points per game, reaching 14 points only once. Legette was near the basement of the position in YPR, YPT, YPRR and RAC. Legette is positioned for an every-down role, but targets may be inconsistent with first-round pick Tetairoa McMillan and Adam Thielen (in his age-35 season) also in the mix at wide receiver. Of course, with Legette's pedigree and after Bryce Young's strong finish to 2024, the 24-year-old is well worth a late flier.
