Patriots WR Julian Edelman's ankle injury not serious

Nov 12, 2018

Patriots’ WR Julian Edelman’s ankle injury is not considered serious.

Fantasy Impact:

Schefter added Edelman's not expected miss much, if any, time, per source. Edelman will be monitored, but outlook for now appears positive, he went on to say. The Week 11 bye comes at a good time for him.

Trey Quinn a standout among Washington WR Corps

Trey Quinn could be in for a big year as the starting slot receiver and No. 1 punt returner. He’s got big cleats to fill as he attempts to replace free agent departure Jamison Crowder, but Quinn, the final selection of the 2018 draft, elicited high praise from both head coach Jay Gruden and wide receivers coach Ike Hilliard for a strong spring performance.

Fantasy Impact:

Trey Quinn suffered a high-ankle sprain last September and spent the majority of his rookie season on IR. He's looking like the guy to man the slot in Washington this season and has already received high praise from coach Jay Gruden, as he stated "I'm ready to watch Trey Quinn jump in that slot role and dominate the position. I'm excited for him."

Quinn is someone to watch in training camp and could be a valuable late-round flier, especially in PPR formats.

Titans Beat: Corey Davis could "shine this season as potential WR1'

I think Corey Davis is going to shine this season as a potential WR1. He pushed 1,000 yards last season even with tons of injuries all around him. He also had very little cover as the team’s primary target once Delanie Walker went down in the opener; teams could just focus on shutting him down.

Fantasy Impact:

With Delanie Walker back from injury and the addition of Adam Humphries and rookie A.J. Brown, things should open up for Corey Davis this season in Tennessee. However, despite having one of the largest target shares in the league, Davis ended as WR27 in 2018. If Marcus Mariota is indeed healthy he should sling the ball more in 2019, but until we see more from Davis, he is still projected to be WR31, with a mid-round price tag.

TE Vance McDonald to benefit from Steelers vacated targets

The Athletic

yesterday · 5:30 PM EDT

Ben Roethlisberger will spread things around more and he won’t force passes into double coverage as often. JuJu Smith-Schuster will be the prime target, but then he was last season as well. Tight end Vance McDonald may very well be the second-most productive receiver.

Fantasy Impact:

With Antonio Brown in Oakland, Ben Roethlisberger's field opens up a bit more, making way for new playmakers. Vance McDonald was already third in targets among Pittsburgh pass catchers last season with 72 and could see more volume in Brown's absence. His 4for4 ranking is currently as TE8 with a projected PPR point total of 151 on the season.
