Howard) to various levels of fanfare, and three were unsigned during the significant signing period (Will Fuller, Julio Jones, Rob Gronkowski). Smith-Schuster is the lone fantasy impact of the changing teams' subset, with Evan Engram second on the list. Only Julio Jones eventually signed off the third group and has provided minimal impact.
