Scouting report

CHI WR Anthony Miller - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. New York Giants

Anthony Miller had a strong start to 2020, finishing 4-76-1 in Week 1 on six targets. His 17.6 fantasy points (PPR) in Week 1 is already higher than all but two of his performances last season. If he can remain consistent, he may end up being a steal in many fantasy drafts. He'll get another opportunity for a great game in Week 2 as he draws a favorable matchup against the Giants. The Giants struggled to stop Pittsburgh's wideouts in Week 2, so we like Miller as a strong WR3 play in Week 2. We're projecting around a 4.4-57.1 game.

CHI WR Anthony Miller - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Detroit Lions

Anthony Miller hasn't quite put it together in his first two seasons, but he has an opportunity for a career year in 2020. He draws a favorable Week 1 matchup against the Lions, a team he finished 9-140-0 against in his previous matchup. We don't expect that however, as we're projecting Miller to finish around 4-56 with a small chance of a touchdown. This would put Miller at about mid-tier WR3 range.

CHI WR Anthony Miller - 2020 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Anthony Miller saw improvement in his second season as he was featured more in Chicago’s offense. He went from 54 targets to 85 and went from playing in 53% of the snaps to 64%. He was second on the team in receiving yards (656) and should finish in that spot again as he plays outside Allen Robinson. Miller had a strong 5-game stretch in 2019 where he finished 33-431-2. If he could keep that production up, or be a little more consistent, he could easily produce WR3 numbers.

Fantasy Downside
Miller would often disappear as he had five games where he finished with five receiving yards or less. One could argue that he’ll see more playing time with Taylor Gabriel gone, but the Bears added Ted Ginn Jr. who essentially replaces that body. Plus the additions of Jimmy Graham and Cole Kmet are slightly worrisome. Plus he’s in an offense with a poor line and bad quarterback play.

2020 Bottom Line
We expect Miller to put up career bests in receptions and receiving yards this season. He’s not someone who we expect to have a breakout season, but he’s talented enough to produce at a WR3 level. He needs to become much more consistent in 2020, and that lack of consistency is why he’s being drafted in the very late rounds. He has enough upside to take a late-round flier on, but don’t expect a Pro Bowl season from Miller. He should be viewed as WR3 or WR4 heading into 2020.

CHI WR Anthony Miller - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Minnesota Vikings

Anthony Miller had an explosive game in Week 15, but came crashing down in Week 16 when he finished with two yards on one catch. Miller has a high ceiling with two 100-yard games in his last four outings, but he's hard to trust as Chicago's offense is so bad. He has a strong chance for a rebound game this week against Minnesota who is allowing the seventh-most fantasy points to receivers. We like Miller as a strong WR3 in Week 17.

CHI WR Anthony Miller - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Kansas City Chiefs

Anthony Miller has suddenly become relevant in fantasy with some strong performances in his last three games, including two 100-yard efforts and two touchdowns. He led the team in targets (15) last week, finishing with a strong 9-118-1. His numbers should drop in Week 16 against a tough Chiefs defense allowing the second-fewest fantasy points to receivers. But Miller's still carrying value as a strong WR3 in Week 16.

CHI WR Anthony Miller - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Green Bay Packers

Anthony Miller caught a touchdown last week as his productive streak continues. In PPR leagues, Miller has put up four consecutive double-digit performances, making him a surprisingly reliable option lately. He gets a decent matchup against the Packers this week and with Taylor Gabriel likely out with injury, we expect Miller to get more looks than usual. We like him as a sneaky high-end WR3 play in Week 15.

CHI WR Anthony Miller - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Dallas Cowboys

Anthony Miller came out of nowhere last week to finish 9-140 on a team-high 13 targets. Miller has been more involved in recent weeks, averaging over 10 targets in his last three games. He's also finished with at least 50 yards in that stretch. But he has no touchdowns on the season, and Mitch Trubisky has only surpassed 300 yards once all season. Miller's improved, but he won't be anything much more than a WR4 in Week 14 against the Cowboys.
