Denver Broncos wide receivers Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders offer quite the quandary for fantasy owners in keeper leagues.

In 2014, Thomas ranked second in wide receiver fantasy points (223), and Sanders ranked sixth (192). Those numbers saw a notable decline in 2015 (Thomas 156, Sanders 140). The slide has continued for Thomas in 2016, as he is on pace to finish the year with 142 points, while Sanders is slated to tread water with 141 points.

Given the quarterback question mark in Denver, fantasy owners considering keeping Thomas or Sanders would like to know if this is the drop-off floor, as well as the odds that this duo can close some of the gap between the current level and their 2014 production ceiling.
