2020 projections: 54 receptions, 918 receiving yards, six receiving touchdowns

When it comes to fantasy football, owning pieces of the Kansas City Chiefs offense seems like a decent idea. While Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce are the two most relevant pass-catchers for the Chiefs, Mecole Hardman figures to see more targets in 2020.

The rookie out of Georgia would finish the 2019 season with 26 receptions for 538 yards and six touchdowns. His 20.7 yards per reception and 13.7 yards per target were both league-highs at the wide receiver position. Not to mention, he boasted a 146.6 quarterback rating when he was targeted, which also led all wide receivers.

Despite his limited usage a season ago, Hardman would record 2.77 fantasy points per target (most among wide receivers in the NFL). With Hardman expected to see the field more, the speedy wideout could be in line for a breakout season in 2020.
