Eddie Royal (Broncos)- Royal has been creeping up the draft boards with the absence of WR Brandon Marshall. As a rookie last season he caught 91 passes for 980 yards and five scores. Even though he has a new coach (Josh McDaniels-OC with the Pats) and QB (Kyle Orton), the system fits him perfectly. The Broncos plan to run a lot of short timing routes which the role West Welker has with the Patriots. In points per reception (PPR) leagues Welker is going in the third-fourth round. Owners should select royal two-three rounds later and expect close to 100 catches.

Jon Carlson (Seahawks)- Instead of jumping on a tight end in Round 4 owners should wait till rounds 8-10 to select one. Carlson caught 55 balls for 627 yards and five scores in his rookie season. Carlson should be the second option on his team and will have QB Matt Hasselbeck throwing to him. Hasselbeck missed nine games last season due to a back injury. However, he will be asked to block more with the injury to LT Walter Jones but he will still be targeted often especially in the red zone.
