Laviska Shenault Jr. (WR, JAX) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~80 Overall

CURRENT ADP: ~95

ANALYSIS: Laviska Shenault Jr. enjoyed a breakout rookie year in 2020 in the midst of uneven quarterback play. Entering Shenault's sophomore campaign, the Jaguars have made a transformative improvement in quarterback play from Mike Glennon and Gardner Minshew to Trevor Lawrence. With subpar quarterback play, Shenault pulled in 58 catches for 600 yards and six touchdowns, while also adding 5.1 yards per carry on 18 attempts. Over the last five games of the season, Shenault recorded 25 receptions and four touchdowns as he gained additional shares of the offense.

Gone from last year's receiver depth chart are Keelan Cole and Chris Conley.  They've been replaced by an aging Marvin Jones and versatile rookie running back, Travis Etienne. Shenault is the de-facto WR2 opposite DJ Chark, and with the top pick Lawrence and new head coach Urban Meyer leading the way, his trajectory is directed upwards. Look for Meyer to possibly use Shenault in a similar fashion to his former versatile swiss army knife, Percy Harvin, while at Florida. Shenault is definitely someone to look at for wide receiver depth with his upside.

UPDATE: Travis Etienne suffered a Lisfranc injury in the preseason and is out for the season. The rookie out of Clemson was expected to garner a significant amount of targets as a hybrid RB/WR, so while this directly boosts James Robinson's outlook, it's also a sneaky upgrade for Shenault's chances to break out this season. Chark Jr. and Jones Jr. are still likely ahead of him in the pecking order, but they're both injury prone and Shenault will get his looks out of the slot and backfield anyway.
