Justin Hunter flashes brilliance in preseason matchup vs. Saints

Hunter has been one of the stars of summer practices so far, and this monster preseason performance only adds to the hype. He had the look of a player ready to make the second-year leap after snatching a ball in the corner of the end zone on a fade route and also converting an in-route to a 64-yard touchdown.
Fantasy Spin: Should the quarterback position in Tennessee stabilize with a healthy Jake Locker, Hunter could be in for a big year. His athleticism and big-play ability have never been in doubt, and now Hunter appears to be honing the finer points of his game. If that translates into consistency, Hunter could be looking at WR2 upside for his fantasy owners, which would be a steal at his current 12th-round ADP. Though it would make him a must-draft at that current value, look for it to rise as the season nears.
