For as much of a headache this kid is off the field, he sure is a nice dose of Advil for fantasy owners on it. It took him a little while to get used to both his new QB Kyle Orton and new head coach Josh McDaniels’ offensive system, but once it clicked, Marshall was the receiving barbarian fantasy footballers had come to know and love over the past couple of years. Marshall caught 100+ passes for the third straight year, and like the year before, he did it in just 15 games (13 starts). Even though his yardage went down a touch, he improved on his aptitude for touchdowns enough to offset the slide. After all the nerves he set off before the season started, he sure as hell ended up being worth the risk taken for those who had the stones enough to call his name out on draft day.
~ Set a career best in receiving TDs (10)
~ Made his second career Pro Bowl team
