Jul 19, 2012

There is no question about the impact that Eagles WR DeSean Jackson has. After a down 2011 season, one in which Jackson didn't net 1,000 receiving yards for the first time since his rookie season, it looks like Jackson is ready for a rebound year. At least, quarterback Michael Vick thinks Jackson will make a bigger impact on the field in 2012.

"I think his attitude in minicamp and OTAs was outstanding," Vick said of Jackson on NFL Network's Total Access. "I think he came in and wanted to work hard. He worked extremely hard with a different attitude, a different mindset. I’m proud of DeSean, I’m proud of how far he has come and just him being patient. Obviously our organization felt like it was important to get him signed and keep him happy, so I’m proud of both parties."

Fantasy Impact:

Jackson wasn't happy about a lack of a contract extension last year, and his played showed it. Hopefully for the Eagles and fantasy owners, he's set to make up for a down 2011. We have Jackson ranked at 34th among WRs, and available in the 7th round. There's no questioning his big-play talent, it's the weeks where you get 2 catches for 7 yards that will kill you. Unfortunately, that's just something you have to live with with Jackson. We rank teammate Jeremy Maclin 18th, and he's much more consistent week-to-week and is a red zone target for Michael Vick.

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.
