Jul 25, 2013

Ask the Giants what went wrong last season and one of the top answers they’ll give is that WR Hakeem Nicks wasn’t healthy and it changed the dynamic of their offense. He is their No. 1 receiver and is the one who draws – and most effectively beats – double teams. The oft-injured receiver is still recovering from knee surgery. He looked OK in mini-camp, but it’s a long summer and he still hasn’t flashed his full speed.

Fantasy Impact:

Rueben Randle is a good WR handcuff for Nicks and should be able to start in favorable matchups as a flex. The Giants' WR3 has been productive in spots in the past few seasons.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Adam Schefter

yesterday · 4:12 PM EST

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Mike Garafolo

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
