Huddle Up: Mitchell (23-312-0) struggled mightily as a rookie, and with Anthony Richardson having all kinds of problems with his accuracy it might be an uphill battle for any receiver to produce reliable numbers this season. Barring major strides in the passing game, Mitchell isn't worth considering for a roster spot.

Huddle Up: Warren is expected to play a ton as the team loves his blocking and receiving abilities. You might be considering him over aging veterans like Travis Kelce in the midrange TE1 equation in fantasy.

Huddle Up: Leonard seems to be on track to be the No. 3 quarterback for the Colts in 2025 with Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones competing for the starting job. He has the chance to become a starter in the future but can be avoided in fantasy leagues at this time.

Huddle Up: Giddens probably will not see much playing time behind Jonathan Taylor but could compete for the No. 2 running back job during training camp. He probably can be avoided in leagues this upcoming season unless Taylor suffers an injury.

Huddle Up: The days of rookie tight ends failing to make an impact are over as we've seen in recent years with Kyle Pitts (68-1,026-1), Sam LaPorta (86-889-10), and Brock Bowers (112-1,194-5) all delivering TE1 value right out of the gate. Warren has a chance to join them after the Colts finished last in the NFL in tight end receptions a year ago. His blocking should help open things up for Jonathan Taylor, and his hands could make him a nice intermediate target for Anthony Richardson (or even Daniel Jones). There's TE1 potential here, though he might be better viewed as a TE2 entering the season.

Huddle Up: Between his early-season back injury and the erratic play of Anthony Richardson, Pittman was facing long odds in terms of meeting expectations in fantasy in 2024. Assuming the back is no longer an issue, the Colts should get slightly better play at the quarterback position this season - whether it comes in the form of Richardson improving as a result of working with a biometrics coach or Daniel Jones playing well enough to win the job. Regardless, Pittman should be considered a decent fantasy WR3 option in early drafts.

Huddle Up: Richardson and Jones will compete for the starting job leading up to the 2025 season, so fantasy players will need to monitor the situation. Richardson likely has more fantasy value than Jones at this point, but neither may be more than a No. 2 fantasy quarterback.

Huddle Up: Richardson's play has been inconsistent since entering the NFL but will have a chance to compete with Jones for the starting job during training camp. Fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation because Richardson will have some fantasy value if he plays.

Huddle Up: He'll be in the running to start with Anthony Richardson on a solid roster. Whoever wins the job could be a matchup play most weeks and a solid QB2.

Huddle Up: Jones probably will not be able to find a guaranteed starting job in free agency but probably will have the chance to compete for a starting job with a team. He will be a No. 2 fantasy quarterback in leagues if he starts in 2025.

Huddle Up: Richardson is expected to have competition for the starting job next season so working with Allen should help him improve his play. He is a solid fantasy option when playing and could be at least a high-end No. 2 quarterback if he starts.

Huddle Up: Richardson has flashed a few times as a pro, but injuries and erratic play have him fighting for the starting gig. Taking a step forward in Year 3 starts with fending off the unnamed competition by way of being more accurate as a passer. One has to expect the organization prefers the former first-rounder wins given the investment. Until we know more, the reality is Richardson's fantasy draft stock is at its lowest point over his short career.

Huddle Up: Mitchell did not get much help from Anthony Richardson, but his quarterback's accuracy issues were only part of the problem. His drop rate on 55 targets wasn't bad (7.3%), but he also didn't help himself with the occasional sloppy route. Mitchell is a freaky athlete but a raw receiver, so he should get plenty of time to prove himself so long as he continues to show some growth. It might be a bit premature to put him on sleeper lists for next season, but it wouldn't be shocking if he ended up doubling last year's reception total (23).

Huddle Up: Taylor missed a few games because of injury but still finished fourth in the league with 1,431 rushing yards. He should continue to be a significant part of the Colts offense next season and should be a weekly starting option in all leagues.

Huddle Up: Richardson saw his completion percentage drop to 47.7% in his first extended action as a pro in 2024 (11 games) after logging just four starts as a rookie. Allen noted that Hess helped him realize that his hip was too often out in front of his arm when throwing, which largely contributed to how often he was inaccurate in his early years with the Bills. It should come as no surprise if Hess reaches a similar conclusion about Richardson, who is a massively talented player with relatively little football experience and poor fundamentals. The good thing about Richardson this season - as it relates to fantasy - is that his cost will be low enough to draft as a QB2, which should be enough to make him a massive bargain if Hess can work his magic on him.

Huddle Up: Richardson was limited to 11 games this season and has only played 15 games in two seasons. He has thrown 11 touchdowns and 13 interceptions in those games and has a completion percentage of 50.6%. His running ability helps his value and probably will be the leading candidate for the job during training camp. He can be at least a high-end No. 2 fantasy quarterback if he starts next season.

Huddle Up: Pittman was on the injury report for most of the season because of the injury, but it seems like rest will help the injury heal. He saw his numbers dip this season but should still be a big part of the passing game next season. He likely will be drafted in all fantasy leagues next season.

Huddle Up: Pittman did see his numbers drop in 2024, but the injury likely was a factor in his play. He should be ready for the start of training camp if he does undergo surgery and probably will be one of the main options in the passing game in 2025. He can be at least a flex option in most weeks next season.

Huddle Up: Herbert started in place of the injured Chase Brown, and while he didn't provide any explosive plays, did show he can handle a heavy workload if called upon.

Huddle Up: It has been a disappointing season for Pittman, but he had nine catches for 109 yards and a score last week with Joe Flacco under center. Flacco is starting again in the finale, and Pittman has a golden opportunity to cap a down year on a high note.

Huddle Up: Downs has caught nine passes in three games since returning from injury and has been targeted eight times over the last two games. He probably will see a handful of targets this week and could be a possible flex option in deeper fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Joe Flacco will receive another start with Richardson unable to play. He has thrown 11 touchdowns and seven interceptions in his limited playing time this season and probably should be avoided in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Pittman was a big part of the passing game last week and should see a decent amount of targets again this week. He can be a flex option in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Downs should see his normal workload this week against the Jacksonville Jaguars but has not posted big numbers over the last few weeks. He could be a possible flex option in deeper leagues this week.

Huddle Up: It seems Richardson is trending toward ending the season on the sideline. Joe Flacco will be in line to start if Richardson can't go, making the veteran a high-end QB2 option for the finale.

Huddle Up: Pittman is coming off one of his best games of the season and has been targeted at least seven times in five of the last six games. He should see a handful of targets this week and can be a flex option in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: Downs has caught three passes in each of his last four games but has been held to under 35 yards in three of those games. He probably will see a handful of targets in Week 18 but is probably only a possible flex option in deeper leagues.

Huddle Up: The Colts have indicated that Richardson has a chance to play this week, so fantasy players will need to check on his status over the next few days. He can be a possible low-end No. 1 quarterback in deeper leagues if he is able to play.
