NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 4) - Targets and Avoids

Through three weeks of the season, it sure looks like we'll see a Patriots-Chiefs AFC Championship rematch. Both of those teams look unstoppable. My one qualm with New England is they've yet to face a formidable opponent. The combined record of New England's opponents is 0-9. Now they get a real test on the road […]

Week 4 Start/Sit: Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis

Nothing like saving the worst game of the week for last. In another forgettable matchup of winless teams, the Cincinnati Bengals travel to Pittsburgh to take on the almost as bad Steelers and Mason Rudolph. If I were ESPN at this point, I would be asking for a refund from the NFL. Or at least a […]

Five Ways to Replace Saquon Barkley

After being drafted as the number one pick in so many fantasy football leagues, there really isn't anything more depressing than seeing Saquon Barkley on the sideline in a walking boot and crutches. After being held by the Tampa Bay defense to just 10 yards on eight carries, it was tough to see Barkley come […]

Daniel Jones Erupts (That's Nice, Now Do It Again)

It has been a whirlwind six-month run for Giants rookie quarterback Daniel Jones. He went from being the draft choice that no one wanted in April to a highly praised savior and successor to Eli Manning on Sunday. His impressive performance against Tampa Bay also has stirred a lot of Fantasy interest, but not to […]

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that no surgery has been recommended for running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) for his high ankle sprain, and the head coach also said the team has no plans to put Barkley on Injured Reserve at the moment, according to a source. Shurmur isn't putting a timeline on […]

Cody Latimer, Bennie Fowler Limited Wednesday

New York Giants wide receivers Cody Latimer (concussion) and Bennie Fowler (hamstring) were both limited in practice on Wednesday.

However, even with star running back Saquon Barkley […]

The Tape Tells All - Daniel Jones' Week 3 Performance

Welcome to another edition of "The Tape Tells All," where I break down some film of an NFL's player performance and try to draw some fantasy football conclusions from that film. This week, I'm looking at New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones. Jones took over the Giants starting role from veteran Eli Manning on Sunday. […]

Darius Slayton Is A Sleeper Option This Week

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Darius Slayton is an attractive sleeper option on Sunday against the Redskins. In his first game since suffering a hamstring injury, Slayton was third on the Giants with five targets last week, catching three of them for 82 yards. As Daniel Jones' preferred deep threat, Slayton could make for […]

Aldrick Rosas A Possible Streaming Option

New York Giants kicker Aldrick Rosas comes into Week 4 as a possible streaming option against a poor Redskins Defense. The Giants' offense came to life under Daniel Jones, which suggests they should be able to move the ball well on Sunday. However, without Saquon Barkley, punching the ball into the end zone may be […]

Giants Defense Still Can't Be Started

Even though the New York Giants face Case Keenum and the Washington Redskins on Sunday, they are still not a recommended fantasy defense. They're currently the third-worst defense in fantasy, and you will never feel comfortable starting them. Don't try to talk yourself into it.

Sterling Shepard Gets Prime Matchup

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard came back from his concussion to lead the team in targets last week against the Bucs. More of the same should be expected on Sunday against a Redskins secondary that allows more points to receivers than any team other than the Giants. With the Giants' offense likely operating […]

Evan Engram Emerges As Elite TE Option

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram will get another week to cement himself as one of the best fantasy options at his position when the Giants face the Redskins on Sunday. A focal point of the Giants' passing attack, Engram is currently the number one tight end in fantasy after three weeks. With Golden […]

Wayne Gallman Gets Chance With Saquon Barkley Out

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman will get his first start of the season on Sunday with Saquon Barkley dealing with a high ankle sprain. As of Wednesday, the Giants haven't signed any other running backs, meaning that Gallman will be backed up by converted fullback Elijhaa Penny and practice-squad call-up Jon Hillman. That's […]
