Draft note
by John Paulsen
McConkey was one of the most pro-ready receivers in the 2024 class, and he backed that up with a stellar rookie campaign. A favorite of Matt Harmon during the pre-draft process, McConkey caught 91 passes for 1,346 yards and 8 touchdowns, finishing as the WR13 overall and WR20 on a per-game basis. His smooth route running and advanced feel for coverages translated immediately. His underlying metrics support the breakout: McConkey finished 4th among 88 qualified receivers in yards per route run and ranked 13th in contested catch rate despite not being a prototypical “above-the-rim” player. He was also 10th in targeted QB rating and 26th in YAC per reception, showing how efficient and quarterback-friendly he was across the board. Looking ahead to 2025, McConkey is expected to build on his strong debut, though the addition of rookie Tre Harris and the return of Mike Williams could put a ceiling on his target share. Still, with Justin Herbert at quarterback, McConkey should remain a high-floor WR2 with room for more.

LAC WR Ladd McConkey - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at New England Patriots

Ladd McConkey continues to be the most productive skill position player on the Chargers with another 6 targets for 6 catches and 87 yards. It would really benefit Justin Herbert and the Chargers to target McConkey more than six times in a game, especially when spreading the ball to guys like Josh Palmer and Quentin Johnston isn't working out particularly well.

New England is tough against receivers, checking in at 8th aFPA against the position, but McConkey should be primarily in the slot and avoiding Christian Gonzalez. Regardless, McConkey is a WR2 even with the difficult matchup on paper. An easy start in any format.
