Diontae Johnson 2021 Outlook
Yes, it's going to be a three-way split with JuJu Smith-Schuster and Chase Claypool. But even with those two on board, Johnson still managed to lead the team with a staggering 144 targets last season. As Last Word on Sports notes, Johnson remained the alpha throughout the season, even when Claypool established himself as a legitimate NFL talent. Still, it was an up and down season. Those 144 targets ranked sixth among wide receivers, but FantasyPros.com notes his 61.5 receiving yards-per-game average was the lowest among wide receivers with at least 129 targets. But he did ramp it up down the stretch. Johnson scored a combined 65.2 fantasy points in six games (10.9 PPG) in the first eight weeks of the season. That point total ranked him 60th among wideouts. In his final nine games of the season, Johnson scored 156.6 fantasy points and averaged 17.4 points per contest. That ranked him sixth at the position behind Davante Adams, Stefon Diggs, Tyreek Hill, Justin Jefferson and Marvin Jones Jr. Expecting Johnson to continue being the most-targeted wideout in Pittsburgh is not a reach. In fact, it continues to be the default belief of those who cover the team on a daily basis, and we recommend drafting accordingly.

Diontae Johnson 2020 Outlook
Johnson's rookie season as a pass-catcher for the Steelers was one of the best in franchise history. He led the team in targets, receptions and touchdowns -- albeit for an offense that was far from high-end. But now, with Ben Roethlisberger on track to return at full speed, Johnson heads into 2020 viewed as a fantasy breakout candidate. Or at the very least, Johnson's flashes in the second half of last season could push James Washington down Pittsburgh's depth chart. In case you missed it, Johnson managed 7.8 targets and 64.3 yards per game in his final four contests last year. The FantasyFootballers pointed out that Johnson had more receptions in his rookie season than Courtland Sutton, D.J. Moore, A.J. Brown, Deebo Samuel, Christian Kirk, or Terry McLaurin -- all without his starting quarterback. As CBSSports.com suggests, Johnson will almost certainly lose targets to JuJu Smith-Schuster (as well as Eric Ebron and perhaps even rookie Chase Claypool), but it's Johnson's speedy, big-play upside that could help him progress into the anticipated second-year breakout. CBS added: "A lot will depend on Roethlisberger's arm and whether the Steelers remain a pass-friendly offense, but the hope in Johnson improving from his first year combined with his cheap draft value make him intriguing.'
