NFL Week 7 Fantasy Preview: Dallas Cowboys at New York Giants, Christine Michael, Eli Manning, Dez Bryant, Joseph Randle, Jason Witten, Matt Cassel

Dallas Cowboys

Dez Bryant (Wide Receiver): Bryant is just practicing on individual drills and will begin to cut on his surgically repaired foot sometime this week. Starting Bryant may not be the wisest move in his first action back; he also might need to wait until week 8.

Terrance Williams/Cole Beasley (Wide Receiver): Williams and Beasley may see their production increase with a quarterback who is not afraid to push the ball down the field. Beasley should especially see some extra opportunities to get some points with a new quarterback under center. The offense has had a week to retool itself so expect some new surprises against the Giants.

Jason Witten (Tight End): Witten does historically well against the Gmen so he is a great start. Witten had a touchdown the last time these two teams faced off and the Giants are incredibly bad at stopping opposing tight ends. Witten is a TE 1 for this matchup.

Christine Michael/Joseph Randle/Darren McFadden (Running Backs): Michael will get the start against one of the softer defensive lines in the league. Michael is relatively an unknown until he makes a splash so expect him to get the lion's share of carries to begin the game. Randle should be more of a passing down/ change of pace back as the season goes along and is worth a flex start in a nice matchup.  

New York Giants

Eli Manning (Quarterback): Manning was awful against the Eagles, the only team Brandon Weeden defeated. Now he faces a healthy Cowboys pass rush that gave him fits the first time they played. Manning does well against the Cowboys historically but should be a considered a risky start.

Odell Beckham JR (Wide Receiver): Odell Beckham will put up some fantasy points but he will need to stay healthy to do so. Beckham is still dealing with a hamstring injury and will have to make it through a full week of practice before he becomes a solid start. In terms of coverage, Byron Jones held Rob Gronkowski to 4 catches for 67 yards, expect a complex mix of bodies on the talented wide receiver.
