2025 Fantasy Outlook
After winning the Heisman Trophy last year, Hunter will soon become the NFL's first true two-way player since his mentor, Deion Sanders, played about half of the Cowboys' snaps on offense in 1996. While some called him a cornerback first and foremost during the pre-draft process, the Browns said otherwise, only to then trade the No. 2 overall pick to Jacksonville. Fortunately for prospective fantasy managers, the Jaguars used the pick on Hunter and were quick to announce that he'll start off prioritizing offense. Landing in Jacksonville rather than Cleveland also means better QB play, catching passes from Trevor Lawrence, although it'll be hard to eclipse 2024 first-round pick Brian Thomas as the primary target in a new-look attack under former Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen. Coming off a 1,258-yard, 15-TD effort in his final season at Colorado, it shouldn't take long for Hunter to emerge as Lawrence's second-favorite option ahead of free-agent signing Dyami Brown and TE Brenton Strange. While he's only about average in terms of size (6-0, 188) and didn't go through pre-draft testing, Hunter has the speed and fluidity one might expect of a former No. 1 overall recruit who became the best college cornerback in the country before also making his case as the top wide receiver. The biggest question now is whether his ability on defense limits his playing time on offense. Read Past Outlooks

Focusing on offense first
Jaguars coach Liam Coen said Hunter will start off focusing on offense, John Oehser of jaguars.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's music to the ears of fantasy managers and Jaguars fans alike, with Hunter -- out of Colorado -- having the chance to earn a starting job on offense and potentially help spark a breakout season for QB Trevor Lawrence. The team wouldn't have given up such a massive haul to move up to No. 2 overall without intent to use Hunter on both sides of the ball, but it's hard to say what that might look like in terms of snap counts (and targets). Jacksonville already has a bona fide No. 1 receiver in Brian Thomas, whose presence arguably reduces the pressure for Hunter to handle large snap counts on offense, although that might not end up mattering long term if Hunter is as good as everyone seems to expect. Coen said Hunter will learn the team's defensive system and take some offseason reps on that side of the ball, even though the Jaguars want offense to be his priority for now.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Ample first-year success predicted
Hunter is predicted to make a sizable impact as a rookie by Gennaro Filice of NFL.com.
ANALYSIS
The Colorado rookie is very highly regarded and expected to make an instant impact in Jacksonville, although whether that will come on both sides of the ball remains to seen. Filice notes it appears Hunter's primary focus will be on offense, where his phenomenal body control and the fact he was officially charged with just four drops on 216 college targets at Colorado should begin serving him well immediately at the NFL level. Filice predicts Hunter will have a similar level of success to that new teammate Brian Thomas enjoyed during his 2024 rookie campaign, and he adds the two should make for one of the NFL's most dynamic receiving tandems.
