DEN WR Demaryius Thomas - Week 1, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Carolina
With the change of QB to Trevor Siemian, Demaryius Thomas may see a bit of a drop in targets and receptions this year. While the Broncos aerial attack shouldn’t see a huge dip with the new signal-caller, a run-first game plan will affect overall stats. Despite being targeted six times in the Super Bowl versus Carolina, Demaryius was held to just one catch. He luckily won't have to worry about Josh Norman this week, but it's tough to view Thomas as a WR1 against Carolina.

DEN WR Demaryius Thomas - 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Coming off what many called a down year for Demaryius Thomas, he still finished with 105 grabs for 1,305 yards (both seventh in the league) and six scores. It was the second straight 100-reception season. He is in great shape this season at 222 pounds and plans to stay at that weight instead of adding to it as the season goes along, something he’s done in the past.

Fantasy Downside
Even with the 105 catches, Demaryius has been criticized for his drops – a career-high 17 (11 according to Thomas). While Peyton Manning was far from his best last year, the run-oriented Broncos will feature either Marc Sanchez or Trevor Siemian at QB for likely most of the season.

Bottom Line
Demaryius is still the top weapon in the Denver passing game and should have another spectacular season. He has not missed a game the past four seasons, each time finishing with over 90 grabs and 1,300 yards. He has averaged 12 touchdowns per season during that span and should be near double-digit TDs in ’16. Even with the QB uncertainty, Thomas remains a top NFL WR.

DEN WR Demaryius Thomas - Week 21, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Super Bowl vs. Carolina
Demaryius Thomas has been a bit of a forgotten part of the Denver offense in the playoffs, as he has only six grabs for 52 yards in the two contests. It’s not for a lack of targets, as Peyton Manning has come Demaryius’ way 15 times in the post-season. Thomas caught over 100 passes and six TDs during the regular season and will need to have a big game against a solid Carolina defense if the Broncos are to hoist the Lombardi trophy.

DEN WR Demaryius Thomas - Week 20, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

AFC Championship vs. New England
In last week’s win over Pittsburgh, Demaryius Thomas was targeted eight times by Peyton Manning, leading to four grabs for 40 yards. Thomas had an early drop, something Denver receivers struggled with for most of the game. With Brock Osweiler at QB against the Patriots in November, on 13 targets, Demaryius caught just one pass for 36 yards. The Broncos will need much more out of No. 88 in the rematch.

DEN WR Demaryius Thomas - Week 19, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 19 vs Pittsburgh
After scoring a 72-yard touchdown in the first minute of the game two weeks ago versus the Bolts, Demaryius Thomas finished with five grabs for 117 yards. He was over the century mark four times during the regular season, with six scores. At Pittsburgh last month with Brock Osweiler at QB, Thomas caught five passes for 61 yards and two TDs. During the regular season, the Steelers were No. 30 versus the pass.

DEN WR Demaryius Thomas - Week 17, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. San Diego
In the win over the Bengals last Monday, Demaryius Thomas was targeted a team-high 12 times, leading to seven grabs for 59 yards. In the past six weeks, D.T. has registered a TD every other game, meaning that he is due to be back in the end zone in the regular season finale. Thomas caught six passes for 61 yards and a score in the win over the Chargers in December.

DEN WR Demaryius Thomas - Week 16, 2015 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Cincinnati
After a fabulous first half against the Steelers last week, Demaryius Thomas finished with five grabs for 61 yards and two TDs. Brock Osweiler completed only seven passes in the second half; and, for the third straight game, the Broncos were held scoreless after intermission. Thomas is still a must-start, but his drops have been costly to both his team and fantasy owners.
