Saints Defense A Low-End Option Against Green Bay

The New Orleans Saints Defense faces a tough test against the Packers, the league's highest-scoring team heading into Week 3. New Orleans has racked up some good stats so far, including six sacks, two interceptions, two fumble recoveries and a defensive touchdown. Unfortunately, Green Bay hasn't been giving to defenses this year, as quarterback Aaron […]

Wil Lutz A Great Start Against Packers

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz gets a tough matchup against the Packers in Week 3. Lutz has made all three field-goals and all seven extra-points in two contests. New Orleans will have to put up more points in this one, considering that Green Bay currently leads the NFL in points per game. Fantasy managers […]

Jared Cook A Low-End TE1 In Week 3

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook will square off with one of his former teams, the Packers, in Week 3. Cook ranks as the TE16 through two weeks of play and he was a bit disappointing in the first Saints game without Michael Thomas (ankle). Still, he's arguably the best pass-catcher this offense has […]

Emmanuel Sanders A WR4 In Week 3

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders faces off with the Packers in Week 3. Sanders saw the second-highest number of snaps in Week 2 against the Raiders, but was third in wide receiver targets behind Tre'Quan Smith and Deonte Harris. This makes the veteran wideout hard to trust against Green Bay, despite the fact […]

Tre'Quan Smith A Sneaky Play Against Green Bay

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith could be a sneaky play in Week 3 against the Packers. In the first game without Michael Thomas (ankle), Smith played 53 snaps, compared to Emmanuel Sanders' 47, and caught five passes for 86 yards. He out-targeted Sanders seven to three. You can't feel entirely great about playing […]

Latavius Murray A Risky Flex Against Packers

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray gets a favorable matchup against the Packers in Week 3. Green Bay has surrendered the 11th-most fantasy points to opposing running backs and has allowed a back to score in each of their two games so far. Murray saw far less touches in Week 2, though it can't […]

Michael Thomas Ruled Out For Week 3

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers. Thomas will miss his second straight game as he continues to deal with a high-ankle sprain that he suffered late in Week 1 against the Buccaneers. The All-Pro wideout hasn't practiced yet since spraining his […]

Alvin Kamara Should See Huge Workload Again

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara gets a great matchup in Week 3 against the Packers. Green Bay is a perfect example of a funnel defense, as they rank 13th in pass DVOA but 30th in rush DVOA. Kamara comes into the contest averaging 19 touches, 120 scrimmage yards and two scores per game […]

Drew Brees In The QB2 Range Against Packers

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will face off against the undefeated Packers in Week 3. Brees comes into the contest with just 472 passing yards, three touchdowns and a bunch of questions about his ability to play quarterback at the age of 41. For all the concerns surrounding Brees, his fantasy floor has remained […]

Drew Brees Says He Feels Great

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees said he feels "borderline great" despite a disappointing performance in the Monday night loss to the Raiders in Week 2.

Michael Thomas Absent At Practice Wednesday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday while he tries to recover from a high ankle sprain.
