With Stafford reintegrating and McVay’s balance approach, which Rams pass-catchers might surprise early in the season?
Stafford’s autonomy could tilt quick, trust-based throws to the Rams’ top options, but McVay’s fine-tuned balance may also unlock secondary receivers as reads widen. If Stafford leans on clean-entry routes, expect elevated looks for a competent trio behind the lead target. The opening weeks could see steadier volume for the second and third options as timing returns. In fantasy, monitor early target splits and red-zone involvement to identify the breakout candidates.
Additionally, the liaison between Stafford’s comfort with autonomy and Fremantle’s play design may push short-to-intermediate targets to versatile backs and receivers, creating pliable week-to-week value.
