Eric Decker: 1000 yard season?



OK, so technically Eric Decker is the Broncos 3rd receiving option. But, right now Decker is leading the Broncos is receptions (8), yards (166), and touchdowns (2) thanks to the injuries of Brandon Lloyd and Eddie Royal. At this pace Decker would be on pace for 64 catches, 1328 yards and 16 touchdowns on the season; but we all know that probably won't be the case. He'll probably get around 40 catches, 700 yards and 6 touchdowns by season's end, but who am I to say what the health of Lloyd and Royal will be. This is why I would put the odds of Decker getting 1000 yards at about 35%. If Lloyd's injuries keep lingering on, then Decker could be in line for a big season.
