Larry Fitzgerald


Larry Fitzgerald | Arizona Cardinals | WR

Height: 6-3 Weight: 217 | Born: 8/31/1983

2011 Experience: 8th season

Fantasy Football Outlook: For all the quarterback changes in Arizona Fitzgerald still had 90 receptions on the season, and that should tell you how good this guy really is. Sure, he only had six touchdowns and at times didn’t play close to a top ten receiver, but considering the situation, many other receivers would have suffered even worse.

It looks like help is on the way for Fitzgerald as the team is expected to make a trade for either Kevin Kolb or Kyle Orton when the lockout ends. A reliable quarterback would make Fitzgerald a clear top ten receiver in standard and PPR league scoring. While Fitzgerald will find his way over 90 receptions and 1,100 yards once again, fantasy owners will be expecting him to reach around ten touchdowns on the season, and I believe that will happen with an upgrade at quarterback.

8/2011 Update – The Cardinals did trade for Kevin Kolb so view the projected stats below, as legitimate as Fitzgerald is clearly a top ten receiver to target in all leagues.

2010 NFL Fantasy Football Player Rankings: Kurt Warner is gone and Matt Leinart needs to prove he’s a worthy starting quarterback in the NFL. This turnover hurts Fitzgerald fantasy value but not as much as you might think.

Leinart and Fitzgerald have hooked up well in the past and the departure of Anquan Boldin allows Fitzgerald to be the only star receiver on the team. Steve Breaston should be a decent compliment to Fitzgerald, but he’s not a touchdown maker.

Look for Fitzgerald to go over 1,000 yards and double digit touchdowns once again.
