Chark was not a prospect with a ton of buzz until the Combine, but his excellent performance there really pushed him up the boards of many teams. The Jaguars ended up picking Chark in the second round of the 2018 Draft, and he had a quiet rookie season (only 14 receptions).
His second season was a true break-out performance. He had 73 receptions on 118 targets, for 1,008 yards and 8 touchdowns. He was the clear-cut No.1 receiver on the team, jumping over veterans to take that mantle. He boasts excellent speed, good route-running ability, and a knack for going up and getting deep balls. Although his upside is a bit capped for fantasy leagues due to his less-than-ideal quarterback, he proved last season he can produce with Minshew under center.
He should also benefit from the change of offensive scheme Jay Gruden will bring, since the entire offense is likely to be more efficient. He should also be helped by the addition of Laviska Shenault to the wide receiver room, since he is another speedy threat that defenses will have to account for. That should give Chark a bit more room to operate. Finally, the team should still struggle to win many games, which will mean lots of extra passing late in games to benefit the stats of all the Jaguars' pass catchers.

 D.J. Chark ruled out with shin injury
Jags down key pieces in season finale

FFToday's Take: The Jags will be without two key pieces of their offense on Sunday. Both James Robinson and Chark will miss the Week 17 game against the Colts. DFS fliers on Dare Ogunbowale and Laviska Shenault are risky propositions with the Jags coming in as 14-point underdogs.
