Malik Nabers is an elite wide receiver prospect, but his landing spot was bad enough to delay his full arrival.
Ladd McConkey's strong combine showing could be enough to make the Georgia wideout a first-round pick.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
One of three wide receivers in the Cardinals' 2019 draft haul, Butler didn't get a chance to show off his wares as a fourth-round pick, suffering a fractured hand in mid-August that kept him on injured reserve all season. One wonders whether the injury was fortuitous due to issues with drops and his standing with the deep reserves during exhibition season. In any case, rookie second-rounder Andy Isabella also was sparsely used while sixth-round selection KeeSean Johnson earned the fourth-most snaps among Arizona wideouts. Following the offseason addition of DeAndre Hopkins, it's difficult to project consistent work for any of Butler, Isabella, Johnson or Trent Sherfield in a corps that also includes Christian Kirk and Larry Fitzgerald.

Back on NFL radar
Butler had a recent workout with the Jaguars, who are looking to bolster their receiving corps, per John Shipley of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Butler signed with the Steelers last May after a strong season with the XFL's St. Louis Battlehawks, but he was placed on injured reserve and subsequently waived with an injury designation. The wide receiver returned to the Battlehawks -- now with the UFL -- and proceeded to win UFL Offensive Player of the Year honors. Butler is now trying to break back into the NFL, be it with Jacksonville or another receiver-needy team.
