“Call me a prisoner of the moment, but Marquez Callaway significantly climbed up my rankings after catching all five of his targets for 104 yards and two touchdowns in the Saints’ second preseason game against the Jaguars. If Callaway finishes strong against the Cardinals, prepare to reach earlier than the last round if the ADP doesn’t catch up.” How his skill got this unnoticed before is unusual. Callaway finds space he finds separation. What I saw in the film was what the Saints’ coaches must have seen in the offseason. He had a stretch of five straight targets from Drew Brees. Callaway had a touchdown negated by an unfortunate pick play caused by Tre’Quan Smith. To keep my hype emotions in check, I decided to watch the film of his biggest game of 2020 - Week 7, Panthers at Saints - eight receptions on 10 targets for 75 yards. After two games, Callaway has 165 yards and two touchdowns. “Preseason impulses can get the better of rationality sometimes, but the hottest receiver in August has everyone buzzing. Who is one WR that you plan to target in all drafts as a final-round flier and why? Practice fast mock drafts with our free Mock Draft Simulator >
Read on to see who they’re aiming for with their last pick. So who are the top late-round targets, you ask? Our featured pundits are here to tackle that question for you. Finding enough of these final-round gems is how leagues are won. Whoever you grab at the end may not have the upside to win you a title on their own, but they can come through as a reliable starter or flex option that can make a difference when you call upon them to deliver. Why? Because that player could gain value if the starter ahead of them gets injured in the preseason, they could move up the depth chart before the season begins, or the coach could hint that they are in store for a bigger role than anyone thought. This is arguably a better strategy than taking a kicker with your last pick. These are athletes who are typically less known in casual leagues, but have a high chance at delivering some value compared to their average draft position (ADP). Deep sleepers are the type of players you should target at the end of your draft.
