Atlanta Falcons receiver Roddy White sure has a lot of miles on his tires. He's played in 155 games and has has seen a whopping 1,240 targets in his career. White did not miss a single game from 2005-12, but now the wheels are starting to fall off.
Is Leonard Hankerson a fantasy football breakout candidate for 2015?
There’s some buzz surrounding Leonard Hankerson. Is he worth a late-round flier in fantasy football?

The team is taking it easy on his knees and he is expected to need to have his knee drained at some point this season. The Falcons obviously have Julio Jones -- he could be fantasy's No. 1 receiver, by the way -- but not much has changed.
With those issues in mind, ESPN's Vaughn McClure said receiver Leonard Hankerson "has a legit chance to be a secondary threat behind Julio Jones." Hankerson has looked great so far in the preseason, scoring a touchdown in a preseason game against the New York Jets.
Not many people are going to be after Hankerson in most leagues, so chances are most owners can do better in a 12-team format. If you’re in 14-team leagues or deeper, give him a look. You probably won’t be able to use him until White is losing steam, though.
