Don't be surprised if ... Mayfield shines in Week 4, Skattebo is fantasy's top rookie
"It is clearly big news for the NFL world that the New York Giants have decided to promote rookie Jaxson Dart into the starting QB role, sending veteran QB Russell Wilson to the bench. The move should have repercussions for the fantasy football world as well, not so much that managers in standard formats will trust Dart, but that second-year WR Malik Nabers should see more and better targets downfield."
"Yep, all eyes are on Dart, but Skattebo is poised to make a greater impact for fantasy purposes. There are 32 starting quarterbacks in the NFL. In a typical fantasy league, perhaps two thirds of them may be on rosters. Things are different at running back. Fantasy managers are desperate for relevant options, especially as bye weeks approach. Next week, for example, Atlanta Falcons star Bijan Robinson and Green Bay Packers star Josh Jacobs will not play."
The New York Giants promoted rookie Jaxson Dart to starting quarterback, moving veteran Russell Wilson to the bench. Dart's elevation increases downfield passing opportunities, especially benefiting second-year wide receiver Malik Nabers, who should see more and better targets. Rookie running back Cam Skattebo is poised for increased fantasy relevance as managers seek playable options amid upcoming bye weeks. Next week’s byes include Bijan Robinson and Josh Jacobs, making Skattebo a likely active option in many lineups. Offensive line play and play calling will affect outcomes, so performance remains uncertain despite optimistic projections.
