2010 Projected NFL/Fantasy Football Statistics

Pros: Jenkins has caught at least 50 passes each of the past three years. He's a proven possession receiver in an evolving offense that features a promising young passer in Matt Ryan.

Cons: A shoulder injury will keep Jenkins sidelined four to six weeks, which puts at least Week 1 in jeopardy. He's the third target in the pecking order and has seen his touchdown receptions decrease three straight years.

Fantasy tip: Jenkins is only draftable in extremely deep PPR leagues. He is a No. 7 wideout or, at best, a desperation No. 6. He should be left for the waiver wire in all normal formats.
