3. Chris Hogan

Chris Hogan has been missing for most of the season. It has seemed like Tom Brady has been ignoring him at some points. Now Hogan will have to be one of Tom Brady’s top option.

There would be times that Hogan would be wide open and Brady wouldn’t throw him the ball. Part of this is on Tom Brady, but Hogan isn’t without blame. He has struggled a lot this season.

Hogan only has 29 catches for 468 yards and 3 touchdowns this season.

Now the good thing for Hogan is that he is coming off his best game of the season. In Week 15 against the Steelers, Hogan had 2 catches for 68 yards and a touchdown.

The issue with Hogan is that he seems to just disappear. He will make a great catch and have a big play and then be a nonfactor for the rest of the season.
