You're not going to impress any of your friends by picking Tannehill to be your fantasy quarterback. In fact, you'll probably get some eye rolls and some laughs. But the joke is on them.

Tannehill had the highest QB rating in the NFL in 2019 and was extremely consistent from a fantasy perspective. The Titans signal-caller, who signed a $118 million contract this offseason, finished 22nd amongst quarterbacks in fantasy points despite only starting in 10 regular-season games. If you don't land a stud QB in the earlier part of your draft, Tannehill is a nice mid-round pickup.

"},{"title":"Matthew Stafford, QB, Detroit Lions","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/stafford_matthew_USATSI_13615683.jpg","credit":"USA Today","published":1598035623,"caption":"

Projected round: 8-9
Projected stats: 4,200 yards, 28 TDs, 12 INTs

Stafford was enjoying one of his most productive seasons in 2019 until he suffered a season-ending back injury. The 11-year veteran seems to constantly be overlooked in fantasy despite putting up top-10 point totals every season.

As long as he's able to stay healthy (he played in eight consecutive full seasons before last year's injury), Stafford should be a "set it and forget it" QB for your 2020 fantasy campaign.

"},{"title":"Justin Jackson, RB, Chargers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/jackson_justin_USATSI_13330524.jpg","credit":"USA Today","published":1598035808,"caption":"

Projected round: 10-11
Projected stats: 480 rushing yards, three rushing TDs, 185 receiving yards, one receiving TD

Melvin Gordon is gone, which means it's Austin Ekeler and Justin Jackson's backfield now. Fourth-round pick Joshua Kelly is in the mix as well, but Ekeler and Jackson should get the bulk of the work. While there's a chance Kelly overtakes Jackson at some point, right now Jackson is the guy to draft.

Expect Ekeler to be one of the most valuable players in fantasy for 2020, just as he was in 2019. However, Jackson could step up to be a valuable No. 2 just as Ekeler was for Gordon. The key will be staying healthy, something he was unable to do a season ago.

"},{"title":"Raheem Mostert, RB, 49ers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/short_form_video/hero/7-9_49ers_Insider_Raheem_Mostert_v2_0.jpg","credit":"","published":1598035972,"caption":"

Projected round: 5-6
Projected stats: 750 rushing yards, five rushing TDs, 230 receiving yards, one receiving TD

Mostert should get more work now that Matt Breida is no longer in the picture. That's exciting news for any future Mostert owners out there, because he was sensational when given the opportunity last season.

There's still some competition for carries with Tevin Coleman and Jerick McKinnon in the mix, but Mostert proved his worth and should be rewarded with more playing time -- and therefore more fantasy points -- in 2020.

"},{"title":"N'Keal Harry, WR, Patriots","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/article/hero/Harry_N_AP_20230629688714.jpg","credit":"Associated Press","published":1598036062,"caption":"

Projected round: 10-11
Projected stats: 550 receiving yards, five TDs

Harry missed most of his rookie season due to injury and never seemed to get on the same page with former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Perhaps now that Brady is gone, Harry and new Pats QB Cam Newton can build a rapport that will warrant New England's first-round selection of the Arizona State product.

Of course, selecting Harry comes with risk, but there's tantalizing upside in the big-bodied wideout becoming one of Newton's favorite receivers.

"},{"title":"Allen Lazard, WR, Packers","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Lazard_Allen_USATSI_13833785.jpg","credit":"USA Today","published":1598036103,"caption":"

Projected round: 9-10
Projected stats: 715 receiving yards, four TDs

The Packers didn't add any receivers in the draft, and that bodes well for Lazard who came out of nowhere to help Aaron Rodgers out in 2019.

Lazard should be a solid No. 2 wideout in Green Bay's offense and could be a huge fantasy pickup as he aims to build off his breakout season.

"},{"title":"Breshad Perriman, WR, Jets","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Perriman_Breshad_USATSI_13798226.jpg","credit":"USA Today","published":1598036198,"caption":"

Projected round: 11-12
Projected stats: 720 receiving yards, four TDs

The New York Jets lost Robby Anderson to free agency and gained Perriman, who had his best year as a pro last season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

If Perriman can build a strong rapport with Sam Darnold, the 2015 first-rounder could come close to replicating Anderson's production. If so, that's an absolute steal in the late rounds.

"},{"title":"Anthony Miller, WR, Bears","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/Miller_Anthony_USATSI_13707556.jpg","credit":"USA TODAY","published":1598036297,"caption":"

Projected round: 11-12
Projected stats: 690 receiving yards, three TDs

It's easy to sour on Miller when you consider who's throwing him the ball, but remember the Chicago Bears picked up Nick Foles who could pressure Mitchell Trubisky for the starting QB job.

Miller's touchdown numbers were down from his rookie campaign, but his reception and yardage totals were up. Perhaps Year 3 is when the promising Memphis product puts it all together.

"},{"title":"T.J. Hockenson, TE, Lions","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/hockenson_tj_USATSI_13650773.jpg","credit":"USA Today","published":1598039181,"caption":"

Projected round: 9-10
Projected stats: 615 receiving yards, five TDs

Hockenson's rookie season started off strong but turned into a disappointment, partly due to an ankle injury suffered on Thanksgiving. Detroit Lions QB Matthew Stafford's back injury didn't help matters either.

But Hockenson is primed for a huge sophomore campaign in 2020. The Iowa product is a freakishly athletic tight end who has drawn comparisons to ex-Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski. If you can't snag an elite TE (Travis Kelce, Zach Ertz, George Kittle), then Hockenson is a solid consolation.

"},{"title":"Noah Fant, TE, Broncos","image":"https://www.nbcsports.com/sites/rsnunited/files/slide/image/fant_noah_USATSI_13681120.jpg","credit":"USA Today","published":1598039345,"caption":"

Projected round: 7-8
Projected stats: 700 receiving yards, five TDs

Like Hockenson, Fant (another former Iowa tight end) had high expectations for his rookie season but didn't quite live up to them. He did, however, begin to show flashes of brilliance toward the end of the year.

Fant saw the second-most targets on the Denver Broncos a year ago and was the TE14 in point-per-reception leagues. Now, with a promising QB in Drew Lock and what looks to be an improved offense altogether, he has a chance to take a leap forward in Year 2.
