Wide receiver Robert Woods is back in action after his recovery from a torn ACL, but with his return comes the start of a new chapter in his NFL career.
He will join the Tennessee Titans after a 5-season stint with the Los Angeles Rams. Woods spent 4 seasons with the Buffalo Bills prior to joining the Super Bowl-winning Rams.
Below, we look at Robert Woods‘ 2022 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.
Woods only got 9 games in during the 2021 season before his injury occurred. Hopefully, the 2022 season holds redemption for what could be the Titans’ best receiver.
Robert Woods’ ADP: 104.02
(ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)
Woods has an ADP of 104.02 in redraft leagues, which puts him in the late 9th round of the draft. His ADP is the highest of all teammates on the Tennessee Titans outside of RB Derrick Henry (5.64).
Among wide receivers, Woods’ ADP puts him 42nd at the position, behind the likes of Drake London (Atlanta Falcons) and DeVonta Smith (Philadelphia Eagles) and slightly ahead of Chase Claypool (Pittsburgh Steelers) and Chris Olave (New Orleans Saints).

Where should you draft Woods?
Woods’ fantasy value has taken a beating the last few seasons. With 2 straight 1,000-yard seasons in which he saw at least 130 targets, Woods has struggled these last few years.
Part of that can be attributed to injury, but with Woods now 30, there’s no telling if that injury history will continue. Woods is also now in a run-heavy offense that just drafted an exciting receiver in Treylon Burks.
With WR Julio Jones and A.J. Brown both gone, Burks and Woods are expected to fill that void. Prior to injuries setting in, Brown did have success in the Ryan Tannehill-led offense.
I expect Woods to have similar success, and he should have a relatively low floor as the WR1 in Tennessee. His ADP is relatively solid here, and I would even drop him down a tier under high-risk prospects like Olave.
Feel free to take a flier on him in the late 9th round, especially given his upside in PPR as a main target for Tannehill.
