BALLER MOVE: Sit in 14-Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR6
ANALYSIS: Two weeks of service may be all fantasy managers get from Darius Slayton.
Filling in for the concussed Malik Nabers, Slayton delivered. The veteran finished as the WR7 (26.2 PPR points) in Week 5 and a less fun, but still respectable WR31 (11.7) in Week 6.
Nabers is back in the lineup this week, meaning Slayton reverts to the third receiver in the pecking order behind the dynamic rookie and slot Wan'Dale Robinson. Daniel Jones will continue funneling targets to those two in a non-explosive offense.
Malik Nabers is one of nine wideouts with 50+ targets after six weeks.

The Eagles' secondary is a weak point on their roster. They allow opposing wide receivers the seventh-most fantasy points per game. Nabers and Robinson have the opportunity to feast. There just won't be enough left over for Slayton.
