Fantasy Football: The Downside for Each Top-20 Pick

Michael Thomas, WR, New Orleans Saints

Downside: Sophomore Slump

When you've got Drew Brees slinging you the rock, things are just fine. And they are for Michael Thomas, who has the potential to see an even larger workload in the Saints offense with Brandin Cooks now with the New England Patriots this year.

If there's one thing to worry about with Thomas, I suppose it would be that his Year 1 production may have been a little fluky. Not that I believe that -- the man is a freak -- but he became the first rookie wideout in NFL history last year to have a 75% or better catch rate with 1,100-plus receiving yards and 9 or more touchdowns.

In truth, the main reason you'd worry about Thomas this season is because you don't believe in him as a talent.

But count me out of that group. He's a stud.
