2011 Fantasy Football Outlook: Talk about getting just what the doctor ordered as Chad Ochocinco has moved on to the Patriots and will play with Tom Brady. While Wes Welker will be the first Patriots receiver taken at fantasy drafts, I expect Ochocinco to creep into the top 25 receivers as we get deeper into the month of August. I’m not sure how much Ochocinco has left in the tank, but expect Brady to feature him early in the season, and get his stats to over 1,000 yards and at least eight touchdowns on the year.
Brady will continue to spread the football around, but Ochocinco should end the season as the top touchdown scorer in the receiving core, and should be a respectable starting option throughout the year. For ten team leagues, you will probably get Ochocinco as a No.3 receiver but he may work his way into being a No.2 receiver early in the season.

2011 June
It’s been a fun ride watching Chad Johnson / Ochocinco with the Bengals but his time in Cincinnati is coming to an end after the lockout. I’m sure a team in contention for the playoffs will look to add Ochocinco as he can still help a team but he is clearly not the receiver he once was.
Look to Ochocinco as an option to add on your squad in the later rounds of the draft for respectable depth at receiver but he’s not a starter in fantasy football right now.
2010 Fantasy Football Outlook
Chad Ochocinco had a bounce back season with his veteran quarterback under center. Look for Ochocinco to continue his productive ways in 2010 as the Bengals defend their AFC North title.
