Andy Isabella

Speaking of Isabella, this man is fast.  That is going to be his true saving grace early.  He showed some difficulty running some routes when he returned to the lineup in preseason.

However Isabella’s speed showed that is where he is going to gain advantage over NFL corners.  His speed is already elite to many of the NFL’s quarterbacks.  He hasn’t faced but a couple of them so far though, so easier said than mission completed at this point.

Fantasy value:  As of right now, zero.  He still has a lot to learn.  Certainly if he’s available as a free agent if one of the other Cardinals receivers goes down, then he might give you a nice Sunday fantasy-wise but don’t count on it in 2019.

Stranger things have happened though.  The speedster from Massachusetts will probably have at least a couple of big plays that will make your jaw drop.
