4) DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Houston Texans

Another offensive play maker for the Texans who can bust a game wide open every time he gets the ball in his hands. He had a superb game last week, finding the end zone twice. Andre Johnson is still a major concern and should get the appropriate coverage he deserves, but Hopkins has proven he can take advantage of secondaries as they focus on Johnson, making the Texans passing game a dilemma for defensive coordinators. The Jags can’t lose sight of the young wideout as they focus on limiting the passing attack that put the Tennessee Titans under last week. Hopkins will seek to take advantage of a secondary that has allowed many big plays this season, so keep an eye on him when he’s matched up against just one defensive back.
