MarvinMims Jr.

News: 2 days agoMims caught all four of his targets for 13 yards and rushed three times for 17 yards in Sunday's 16-14 loss to the Chiefs.

Spin: Mims' targets, catches and 30 total scrimmage yards were all season highs for the second-year wide receiver. Despite playing just 13 of the Broncos' 58 offensive snaps in the contest, the 22-year-old handled seven total touches, the most of any Denver wideout. Unfortunately, Mims was unable to turn his opportunities into much fantasy-relevant production. The speedster will look to take a step forward in a Week 11 matchup against the Falcons, but his limited snap share should keep him off the fantasy radar.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: A popular sleeper as a rookie, Mims caught 60- and 53-yard passes while returning a punt 45 yards in what appeared to be a breakthrough Week 2, only to be minimally used by Sean Payton over his next 14 games. Come year's end, Mims had run a route on only 37% of the Broncos' dropbacks, despite his placing 10th among wide receivers (minimum 30 targets) in aDOT (15.0) and 18th in big-play reception rate (27.3%). Following Jerry Jeudy's offseason trade to Cleveland, the path was seemingly clear for Mims to take over as the No. 2 target in Payton's offense, though the selection of Troy Franklin, the signing of Josh Reynolds and return of Tim Patrick tosses some cold water on the early excitement. Mims still has a path to a fantasy breakout, but he'll need to be sharp during the preseason to remain an attractive late-round pick.
