WAS WR Terry McLaurin - 2023 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Terry McLaurin has remained pretty consistent despite the carousel of quarterbacks in Washington throughout his tenure. McLaurin has finished with at least 120 targets, 70 receptions and 1,000 yards in three consecutive seasons. McLaurin only played one game with projected starting QB Sam Howell last season, but it was a good one as the WR finished with three catches, 74 yards and a touchdown on 31% target share. With no major changes to the WR corps in the offseason, McLaurin is in line to finish with another 1,000-yard season.

Fantasy Downside
While the one game McLaurin had with Howell was promising, it was just one game. We haven’t fully seen what Howell can do throughout an entire season. Since Howell is new, Washington may continue to be a run-focused team like they were last season when they were fourth in the league in total rush attempts. Washington also has a solid WR group with Jahan Dotson and Curtis Samuel. McLaurin has also never been much of a scoring threat, failing to surpass five receiving touchdowns in three straight seasons.

2023 Bottom Line
McLaurin is a fairly safe option when it comes to fantasy. He’s a very talented receiver who has just found a way to consistently put up production despite some ugly situations in Washington. We’re projecting him to finish with yet another 1,000-yard season as his stats will likely look the same to what he’s done since joining the league. Washington brought in OC Eric Bieniemy in the offseason, so there’s a chance we could see something different this year, but overall McLaurin is a safe choice. With his current ADP, he’s someone to target in redraft leagues.

WAS WR Terry McLaurin - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Cleveland Browns

Terry McLaurin had a solid outing last week, finishing 4-77-1 on five targets. Things will be different this week, though, as Carson Wentz returns at QB. McLaurin played better with Taylor Heinicke this season. In the nine games with Heinicke, McLaurin averaged 5.6 receptions for 80.6 yards. In the six games with Wentz, McLaurin averaged 3.7 receptions for 61.2 yards. Not bad, but it's a notable difference. Still, McLaurin is a top-tier talent and he should be fine with Wentz. The bigger concern is a tough Browns (4th aFPA) matchup this week. McLaurin should be viewed as a mid-tier WR2 option in Week 17.

WAS WR Terry McLaurin - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at San Francisco 49ers

Terry McLaurin had a decent game last week, finishing 6-70 on six targets. McLaurin has now finished with at least 70 receiving yards in five of his last eight games, which is notable because Taylor Heinicke took over at QB eight games ago. McLaurin should continue to see the same level of production as he gets an OK matchup vs. the 49ers (19th aFPA) this week. He should be viewed as a solid WR2 option for Week 16.

WAS WR Terry McLaurin - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. New York Giants

Terry McLaurin had a great game in Week 13 as he led Washington in targets (12), finishing 8-105-1. McLaurin has seen a solid increase in production ever since Washington switched to Taylor Heinicke at QB. In the six games with Carson Wentz, McLaurin averaged 3.7 receptions for 61.2 yards. In the seven games with Heinicke, McLaurin has averaged 5.7 receptions for 82.6 yards. We'd expect another solid game from McLaurin this week considering he plays his Week 13 opponent again in the Giants. He should be viewed as a solid WR1 option for Week 15.

WAS WR Terry McLaurin - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at New York Giants

Terry McLaurin led Washington players in targets (6) last week, finishing 4-48 while rushing once for five yards. It wasn't a great game for McLaurin, but Washington's passing attack as a whole wasn't that productive with 14 completions and 138 pass yards. McLaurin could struggle to find production again this week as he gets a tough matchup against a Giants defense that's allowed the fourth-fewest average fantasy points to wide receivers. While it's not a great matchup, McLaurin has been solid all year, and should still be viewed as a high-end WR2 option this week.

WAS WR Terry McLaurin - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Atlanta Falcons

Terry McLaurin had an OK outing last week, finishing 4-55 on seven targets. He also ran the ball once for one yard. It's not too surprising he had an off-game considering the tough matchup against the Texans. Things get a lot easier this week as he'll face a Falcons defense giving up the second-most average fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. Atlanta has given up the most total receptions to WRs this year, which bodes well for McLaurin in PPR formats. The Commanders WR should be viewed as a top 10 option at WR in Week 12.

WAS WR Terry McLaurin - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Houston Texans

Terry McLaurin had his best game of the season last week, setting season highs in targets (11), receptions (8) and receiving yards (128). It was McLaurin's third 100-game this season, and his second in the past three weeks. McLaurin has developed a nice chemistry with new QB Taylor Heinicke. McLaurin has averaged six receptions for 92.5 yards in the four games with Heinicke. For comparison, he averaged 3.7 receptions for 61.2 yards with Carson Wentz through six games. McLaurin gets a tough matchup against the Texans this week, though. Houston (10th aFPA) has given up the fewest total receptions to wide receivers this season. Although some of that can be attributed to their league-worst run defense. McLaurin's hot streak with Heinicke makes him a strong option as a WR1 play this week.
