Each season, all 32 teams have multiple noteworthy wide receivers. This leads to several talented players becoming available near the end of fantasy drafts. Some have a legitimate shot at leading their team in targets, while others are third wide receivers in very talented wide receiver rooms, but there is still reason to believe they can make several big plays on a smaller target share.
This article highlights the wide receivers who are generally available in the 15th round or later and could end up with great seasons if everything goes right, even though most wide receivers in the range end up not having much fantasy value.
The average draft position listed is from a consensus between ESPN, Sleeper and Yahoo! for where the player is picked on average in a 12-team, redraft league.

Hollywood Brown, Kansas City Chiefs (ADP: 19.10)
Brown was a first-round pick for the Baltimore Ravens in 2019 and was expected to be a great deep threat. However, Lamar Jackson‘s deep ball accuracy was a major limitation. From 2019 to 2021, Jackson's deep ball accuracy was 32.9%, seventh-worst among quarterbacks with at least 100 deep attempts. During those three seasons, Brown caught 20 deep passes out of 70 targets and only 26 were catchable. His average target depth was balanced by many passes thrown behind the line of scrimmage.
