The Fantasy football draft bible includes SportsLine's top 2021 Fantasy football breakouts:

Chase Edmonds, RB, Arizona Cardinals: The Cardinals have moved on from the disappointing Kenyan Drake at running back, and have replaced him with another shaky option, former Steeler James Conner. Meanwhile, the team is hoping to see more big plays from Edmonds, who has flashed considerable potential as both a runner and pass-catcher in his first three pro seasons. The versatile and exciting Edmonds should certainly outperform Conner, especially for Fantasy purposes.

Edmonds averaged 4.6 yards per carry last season, and he also had a 140-yard plus game from scrimmage. The prior year, he had a three-TD outing that led to him being a top Fantasy football waiver wire add before injury issues ruined his season. Edmonds may be projected to be part of a time share with Conner to open the season, but he is capable of scoring from anywhere on the field as both a runner and pass-catcher, and should emerge as a Fantasy starting option with some true upside.

Joe Burrow, QB, Cincinnati Bengals: In the first half of the 2020 season, Burrow showed he was willing and able to carry a significant workload for the Bengals as a rookie. Playing behind a very shaky offensive line and often working from behind in games, Burrow played well enough to rank as a top-10 Fantasy passer before his season ended because of a major knee injury. Now, as Burrow readies to enter season two in the NFL, his outlook has improved in terms of personnel around him.

Cincinnati improved its offensive line during the offseason, and the return of a healthy Joe Mixon should only help Burrow with the consistent support of a quality running back. Maybe the most impressive move came during the NFL Draft, though, when the Bengals took Burrow's former LSU teammate, Ja'Marr Chase, with the fifth overall selection. Chase will further upgrade a strong WR crew for Burrow, who looks ready to become a top Fantasy starter at QB in 2021.

Michael Pittman Jr., WR, Indianapolis Colts: The Colts made a marquee move in the offseason to acquire former Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, but did not bring in any true playmakers of note at wide receiver. But Indianapolis may already have Wentz's prime pass-catching playmaker in house, and we are not talking about longtime star T.Y. Hilton. He has been a Fantasy standout in the past, but his best days appear to be behind him.

Pittman appears poised to quickly become a top target for Wentz after showing some very impressive glimpses of promise in his rookie year. A big wideout who can win on 50/50 balls, Pittman also has displayed very nifty yardage after the catch skills. His first career scoring reception was a 45-yard TD, and he also had a dazzling catch and run for 30-plus yards in the AFC playoffs. Pittman is not even being drafted in the first 10 rounds, and could prove to be a superb value play.
