Brandon Coleman having a solid camp

Aug 05, 2016

With all the hype surrounding the training camp rookie receiver Michael Thomas is having, it's puzzling that the New Orleans Saints 6-foot-6 second year receiver Brandon Coleman who's drawn comparisons to Saints all-time leading receiver Marques Colston hasn't been mentioned much.

However Saints head coach Sean Payton said Coleman has been solid through training camp.

"I'd say so far, I don't know that it's jumped out at us necessarily, but I don't know that there's been a bunch of minuses." he said describing Coleman's start to camp.

Fantasy Impact:

Payton called Coleman's performance consistent and cited last year's experience where the former Rutgers standout caught 30 passes for 454 yards and two touchdowns as a beneficial to him this season, the story said. Unfortunately for Coleman, we see him behind Brandin Cooks, Willie Snead and Thomas to start the season so he's only 91st on our WR list.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
