The wide receiver position’s average draft position in fantasy football continues rising each season, requiring surefire, elite performances for the position to return value.
Identifying costly veteran wide receivers with stable talent profiles is critical in this regard. Here, we break down three NFL wide receivers who are likely to repeat as WR1 finishers after producing WR1 season-long finishes in both half-points-per-reception and PPR scoring formats last year.
WR Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit Lions
St. Brown is an excellent candidate to repeat as a fantasy football WR1, thanks to his high-volume usage, brilliant deployment and sterling efficiency. His 92.1 PFF overall grade in 2023 tied for fourth among 30 wide receivers with at least 2,300 offensive snaps from 2021 to 2023.
