DeVonta SmithWR

Matt Harmon ranks DeVonta Smith as WR11 and ahead of AJ Brown for fantasy this season. The departure of AJ Brown from the Eagles creates a significant target vacuum. Smith's ability to play X and slot, combined with his fit in both spread-and-shred and under-center play-action schemes, positions him as a league-winner candidate at current ADP. Harmon believes Smith fits the profile of a top-10 receiver emergence pattern (elevation + target vacuum + outside routes) and could come out gang busters and be an absolute game-changer at the wide receiver position. Smith is positioned as a preferred second-round pick ahead of George Pickens and as a favorable third-round option with quality upside alongside Chris Olave.
