Draft Note by John Paulsen
Valdes-Scantling made a splash after joining the Saints, catching four touchdowns in his first three games. He had 347 yards in his first six games with the Saints--the fantasy WR20 in that span--before finishing the season with a goose egg and a 33-yard game in Weeks 17-18. With DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett out of the picture, there are plenty of snaps up for grabs and it's a good sign that MVS is playing for the offensive mind (Klint Kubiak) that squeezed some good production out of him in New Orleans. If he's a starter, he could post WR4/WR5-type numbers, though he’ll be fighting for the scraps left by Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp.
