Terry McLaurin A WR1 Versus Browns
Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin has a tough matchup versus former Ohio State teammate Denzel Ward, but is still a WR1 for a matchup in Cleveland. McLaurin typically sees the opposing team's top corner, but the sophomore receiver has beaten good cornerbacks before as he went for 125 yards and a touchdown versus […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoDwayne Haskins Not A Strong Fantasy Option Despite Matchup
Washington Football Team quarterback Dwayne Haskins has played efficiently in 2020, but is not a quarterback to target in fantasy. Haskins is quickly earning the dreaded "game manager" tag as he has thrown for under 225 yards and exactly one touchdown, but no interceptions, through the team's first two games. The Browns are a solid […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoLogan Thomas A Borderline Starter Versus Browns
Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas made four catches in each game so far this season and is a streamable tight end in a good matchup with Cleveland. Thomas hasn't eclipsed 40 yards in a game yet this season so he is a touchdown-dependent option in fantasy, but he has been getting a good […]

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram has struggled thus far in 2020 and things won't get easier in Week 3 versus San Francisco. The 49ers won't be at full strength on defense after several injuries in Week 2, but they have still allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends through two weeks. […]

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton had a letdown game in Week 2 with just 33 yards after he exploded for 100-plus yards and a touchdown in Week 1. Slayton should be in a position to see more targets this week as Sterling Shepard (toe) was placed on Injured Reserve. New York has struggled […]

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate should see a bigger target share in Week 3 with Sterling Shepard (toe) on Injured Reserve. That being said, it would be tough for fantasy managers to start Tate this week as he had just five targets for 47 yards in his first game of the season last […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoGiants Defense Has Solid Matchup In Week 3
The New York Giants Defense will have streaming appeal versus a banged-up 49ers team in Week 3. The Giants Defense hasn't shown much through two weeks to warrant consideration in fantasy, but they are playable as a low-end starter this week. The 49ers will be without starting QB Jimmy Garoppolo and superstar tight end George […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoWayne Gallman Still Third In Giants Backfield
New York running back Wayne Gallman was a hot waiver wire pick-up in 2019 when Saquon Barkley went down with an injury, but won't have the same role this time around. Gallman was inactive in Week 2 and Dion Lewis took over RB1 duties after Barkley's injury. Lewis should still be ahead of Gallman in […]

Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoDion Lewis Ready To Assume Bigger Role
New York Giants running back Dion Lewis will need to assume a larger role in the offense as Saquon Barkley (knee) is out for the season. Barkley certainly leaves big shoes to fill, but Lewis will not be alone in trying to replace the Pro-Bowl running back as Devonte Freeman and Wayne Gallman should also […]

Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoLogan Thomas Targeted Nine Times In Loss To Cardinals
Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas had a quiet afternoon with just 26 yards on four receptions in a loss to the Cardinals on Sunday. Despite the unflattering stat-line, Thomas was targeted nine times, second-most on the team. The Washington offense lacks true playmakers so Thomas has been heavily-involved in back-to-back weeks. His high […]

The Washington Football Team Defense was torn apart by Kyler Murray and the rest of the Cardinals offense in a loss on Sunday.
