Washington Redskins
Matt Jones/Alfred Morris (Running Back): Last week Alfred Morris appeared to get edged out of his lead back duties by rookie Matt Jones. This is bad news for all Morris owners so hopefully you handcuffed the rookie to him. Jones ran all over a stingy Rams run defense that got beat like a drum all day long. The rushing game in Washington brought some stability to an unstable offense and Jones is one of the best flex plays you can hope for.
Jordan Reed (Tight End): Reed has embraced his role as the primary tight end for the Redskins. He will continue to see a ton of targets in week 3.
Pierre Garcon (Wide Receiver): Garcon has been the number 1 wide receiver while DeSean Jackson has been dealing with injuries. Garcon will be a touchdown dependent WR2 this week.
New York Giants
Odell Beckham JR (Wide Receiver): ODB was an absolute monster this week so there is no reason to expect the Redskins to be able to stop his production. ODB is getting targeted more than anyone else in the offense and will continue to see opportunities to be very productive on the field. Beckham is a must start against the Redskins.
Eli Manning (Quarterback): Manning has been inconsistent so far this year however he has been an average fantasy quarterback. The Redskins will not pose a large threat to Manning's fantasy value this week so he should be able to put up some points on a defense with a lot of question marks.
Larry Donnell (Tight End): Donnell finally saw the end zone last week proving he could cause matchup nightmares around the red zone. Donnell will be one of Manning's main weapons for this contest.
Rashad Jennings/Andre Williams/Shane Vereen (Running Backs): There is not much to say about the Giants running game, but at least it is better than the Eagles. Jennings, Williams, and Vereen have all scored points at different times but they are not difference makers. Williams, Vereen, and Jennings should be on the bench until one of them proves effective enough to take the starting job.
