Weekly Writeup
McLaurin had easily his worst game of the season in the first meeting with Philly. But the biggest issue was that he only got 2 targets. McLaurin has racked up 20 catches, 5 TDs, and three straight games of 73+ yards since. Let’s fire him up in spite of a challenging matchup.

Bottom Line

Since scoring 7 times as a rookie, McLaurin's TD counts have gone 4, 5, 5, 4.

It’s a lack of scoring that’s kept him from a fantasy WR1 breakout.

We’re not counting on a scoring surge this fall. But we’re intrigued by the arrival of Jayden Daniels, while Washington’s current pass-catching corps should afford another 120ish targets.

At bottom, McLaurin fits best as a mid-tier WR3.

What We Learned Last Year

  • McLaurin battled through a case of turf toe in August.
  • He returned for Week 1 and played alongside QB Sam Howell, who led the NFL in attempts.
  • The former Ohio State star saw 128 targets – good for a 22.2% target share.
    • An inefficient season followed. McLaurin tied or set career lows in TDs (4), yards per catch (12.7), and yards per route run (1.56).
  • The underwhelming season certainly trickled down to fantasy.
    • He finished as a top-15 WR only twice.
    • He ranked outside the top-36 WRs eight times.
  • On the positive side, McLaurin remained durable. He didn’t miss a game for the third straight season.

What to Expect in 2024

  • McLaurin returns for year six. He’s under contract for two more seasons.
  • Washington lost Curtis Samuel to free agency and replaced him with late-Round 3 rookie Luke McCaffrey.
    • McCaffrey is a convered QB who’s on the raw side. Most analysts expected him to be a Round 5-6 pick.
    • Samuel’s absence removes 91 targets from the ‘23 offense.
    • Washington added TEs Zach Ertz and rookie Ben Sinnott. Their presence doesn’t impact McLaurin’s role.
  • QB Jayden Daniels arrives as the second overall pick.
    • He’ll turn 24 in December and brings plenty of experience (55 starts).
    • He’s a top-tier athlete with the ability to extend plays – a theoretical benefit for McLaurin’s downfield upside.
    • Note: a healthy 22.7% of McLaurin’s 2023 targets came on deep balls (20+ air yards).
  • OC Kliff Kingsburry enters year one in Washington.
    • His Arizona offenses ranked 18th, 15th, 18th, and 4th in pass attempts.
    • Kingsburry’s units ranked 1st, 6th, 8th, and 6th in total WR target share. Volume shouldn’t be an issue for McLaurin.

Noah Brown, WR WAS

12:38pm EST 12/11/24

Noah Brown Done for the Year?

Commanders WR Noah Brown is "going to be out for a while," per HC Dan Quinn. In fact, Quinn mentioned the possibility of Brown going on season-ending IR while noting a "significant internal injury." The veteran was operating as Washington’s WR2, but now those snaps will go to Dyami Brown, Olamide Zaccheaus, and Luke McCaffrey. You shouldn’t count on any of those WRs for Week 15 fantasy production at New Orleans. Meanwhile, Terry McLaurin's outlook improves as a fantasy WR2.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels completed 25 of 30 passes for 206 yards and 3 TDs in Sunday’s blowout win over Tennessee. The rookie added his sixth rushing TD of the season.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin racked up 102 yards and a TD on 5 receptions in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. Most of that came on a single play late in the fourth quarter, though. McLaurin caught a pass with 33 seconds left and took it to the end zone from 86 yards out. That means his other 4 catches totaled just 16 yards.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin caught just one pass for 10 yards in Thursday night's loss to the Eagles. He was invisible for most of the night, drawing just two targets on 32 Jayden Daniels pass attempts. The first fell incomplete on a crosser in the third quarter. McLaurin finally got on the board with a 10-yard grab in the fourth quarter.

Despite high volume from Sam Howell in 2023, McLaurin's fantasy production never followed suit (79-1,002-4). He signed an extension in July of 2022, keeping him under contract through the 2025 season.
