Draft note

by John Paulsen

Jones was the QB17 on a per game basis as a rookie in 2019, but finished QB33 and QB19 in that metric in his next two seasons. He’s also had a tendency to get dinged up, and has missed 11 of a possible 49 games. The hope is that with a new head coach (Brian Daboll) and a revamped offensive line (+$10.5 million spent in free agency and five net new players, including two draft picks) will allow Jones’s career to get back on track. The receiving corps is a little suspect at this point–Kenny Golladay is coming off his worst season, Kadarius Toney is raw and Sterling Shepard is no spring chicken–and they lost Evan Engram in free agency. Still, Jones can run. He has averaged 26.4 rushing yards per game in his career, so if Daboll and Co. can get his passing back on track, there’s a chance that Jones could emerge as a mid- to high-end QB2.

Giants WR Kadarius Toney set to miss another week of practice

After missing the preseason opener, Toney does not look to be on path for Week 2 due to a leg injury.

Related Players: Wan'Dale Robinson, Daniel Jones

Fantasy Impact:

Toney played in only 10 games last season, dealing with issues pertaining to his hamstring, ankle, thumb, quad, oblique and shoulder. That was followed by an off-season filled with trade rumors and the selection of a similar type of receiver in the draft. It's difficult to buy in with all the negativity surrounding him.

NYG QB Daniel Jones - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Dallas Cowboys

The Giants are 2-0, but don’t give too much credit to Daniel Jones. He has a combined 364 yards and three touchdowns through two games, along with 46 yards on the ground. He also only has one interception, however, and hasn’t fumbled yet. Those are the numbers most likely to keep him on the field, even if his passing statistics fail to be prolific.

This week, keep Jones on the bench against the Cowboys’ fearsome pass-rush. They sacked Joe Burrow six times last week and Micah Parsons leads the league with four sacks through two games. Expect a tough game offensively for the Giants.
