It's early, but RGIII continues to look good

Aug 02, 2015

It’s still a little early to call it a trend, but Redskins QB Robert Griffin III has been sharp in practice two days in a row.

In fact, Griffin went a combined 16 of 18 in 11-on-11 drills on Friday and Saturday. One major emphasis for the fourth-year passer is consistency. And, after an up and down Day 1, he's shown well.

Fantasy Impact:

"While it may be early" is a good reason to counter any kind of positive news in training came for most players this time of year, for RGIII any little bit of good news may mean a little more. Obviously he's a key to the Redskins offense that features a lot of talent, so if Griffin can keep his momentum going heading into the season, it may be good news for his owners. Griffin is ranked just 21st on our QB list but would be a popular waiver wire pickup if he starts to put up fantasy numbers with his arms and feet.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

Scott Bair

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Related Players: Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
