Ladd McConkey

Does McConkey suit the new offense? What happened last year when he dropped 400 yards on his rookie season? The Chargers have options if McConkey doesn't take the #1 role and with early fantasy picks a premium, I would err on the side of caution regarding McConkey

McConkey is expected to bounce back under new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, whose highly creative system will look to restore the target volume he had as a rookie. 

Last season's disappointment doesn't change the trajectory McConkey established with an 82-1,149-7 rookie campaign. With Keenan Allen gone and Mike McDaniel taking over as offensive coordinator, he should once again become Justin Herbert's first read and challenge for weekly WR1 production.

Mike McDaniel is installing a quick-hitting passing offense. McDaniel has adjusted Justin Herbert's drops to facilitate his quick game.

He's also emphasizing quick-hitting run blocks to generate craters that Miami generated when Raheem Mostert and Davon Achane delivered peak seasons on the ground. There will be a lot of play fakes and reads that involve runners and receivers working sideline to sideline to confuse linebackers and safeties. 

A big part of McDaniel's offense was the YAC skills his receivers Tyreek HIll and Jaylen Waddle could deliver off quick-hitting throws. Hill and Waddle were explosive route runners  with excellent drive phases in their routes that led to quick-hitting catches while at top speed. 

Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston may not be as fast, but they are as quick, if not quicker. Expect a career year from McConkey in this Hill-like role.
