Philadelphia’s title defense took another blow as Jay Ajayi landed on the IR with a torn ACL. With LeGarrette Blount in Detroit, the Eagles suddenly find themselves without either of the punishing backs that lead them to the promised land.
.
The workload will likely move to Wendell Smallwood in the near-term and eventually a committee with Corey Clement and Darren Sproles if and when the Eagles get back to full strength at running back.
.
The Eagle back most attractive to own for the balance of the year should be Clement, with Smallwood being a close second. They likely fall into the RB3 or RB4 territory and are best used in bye weeks as an RB2/flex option.
.
It may be best to evaluate your roster and see if you can make a move to bolster your running back situation if you were relying on Ajayi.
.
Some non-Eagle backs to look at on the Waiver Wire. Obviously some of the names are only available in smaller leagues.
.
James White
Adrian Peterson
Matt Breida
Austin Ekeler
Javorious Allen
Nyheim Hines
Mike Davis
Alfred Morris
Frank Gore
Ty Montgomery
Jamaal Williams
Aaron Jones
.
There were some unheralded heroes this week. There always are. Let’s take a look at them and see if they are worthy of your fantasy rosters.
.
Get ‘em
Alfred Blue, RB, Houston Texans – Racked up 119 total yards in Lamar Miller’s absence. Worth adding if Miller misses again or cedes lead back duties to blue
Blake Bortles, QB, Jacksonville Jaguars – Threw for 430 yards and a TD. Ran for 34 and a score. Topped 375 yards in 3 of 5 games.
Martavis Bryant, WR, Oakland Raiders – Caught all three targets for 91 yards.
Keelan Cole, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars – Caught 4 of 10 targets for 70 yards.
Mike Davis, RB, Seattle Seahawks – 75 total yards, TD.
Frank Gore, RB, Miami Dolphins – 12 carries for 63 yards. The veteran had twice as many carries as Kenyan Drake.
Austin Hooper, TE, Atlanta Falcons – Caught 9 of 12 targets for 77 yards. TE yards2 option.
Baker Mayfield, QB, Cleveland Browns – Threw for 342 yards and a TD. Ran for 23 yards. QB2.
Donte Moncrief, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars – Caught 6 of 15 targets for 76 yards. 109 yards and a score last week.
Chester Rogers, WR, Indianapolis Colts – Caught 8 of 11 targets for 66 yards. PPR depth option with 16 catches in last two games, particularly if T.Y. Hilton is sidelined again.
Mohamed Sanu, WR, Atlanta Falcons – Caught 4 of 7 targets for 73 yards, TD. Three solid weeks in a row.
Wendell Smallwood, RB, Philadelphia Eagles – 71 total yards, TD. Option now that Jay Ajayi is done for the year. Corey Clement is probably the preferred long-term add.
Mike Williams, WR, Los Angeles Chargers – Caught all three targets for 66 yards.
.
Don’t Sweat ‘em
Robby Anderson, WR, New York Jets – Caught 3 of 5 targets for 123 yards and two TDs.
C.J. Beathard, QB, San Francisco 49ers – 349 yards, 2 TDs plus rushing TD.
D.J. Chark, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars – Caught 2 of 4 targets for 68 yards.
Sam Darnold, QB, New York Jets – 198 yards and 3 TDs.
Rashard Higgins, WR, Cleveland Browns – Caught 3 of 4 targets for 66 yards, TD.
Kyle Juszczyk, RB, San Francisco 49ers – Caught 6 of 7 targets for 75 yards.
Case Keenum, QB, Denver Broncos – 377 yards, 2 TDs.
Christian Kirk, WR, Arizona Cardinals – Caught 3 of 4 targets for 85 yards, TD.
Eli Manning, QB, New York Giants – 326 yards, 2 TDs.
David Moore, WR, Seattle Seahawks – Caught 3 of 4 targets for 38 yards and a pair of TDs.
Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, New England Patriots – Caught both targets for 11 yards and a score. Second straight game with a score, but involvement in the offense is minimal.
Niles Paul, TE, Jacksonville Jaguars – Caught 7 of 9 targets for 65 yards.
Terrelle Pryor, WR, New York Jets – Caught 20-yard TD.
Curtis Samuel, WR, Carolina Panthers – Caught 2 of 4 targets for 37 yards, TD.
Equanimeous St. Brown, WR, Green Bay Packers – Caught 3 of 5 targets for 89 yards. Desperation play if Green Bay remains thin at WR.
Courtland Sutton, WR, Denver Broncos – Caught 2 of 5 targets for 18 yards, TD.
Erik Swoope, TE, Indianapolis Colts – Caught all three targets for 44 yards and a TD. Had a second score called back. Unfortunately he’s the third tight end option for Indy.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling, WR, Green Bay Packers – Caught 7 of 10 targets for 68 yards. Desperation play if Green Bay remains thin at WR.
Trent Taylor, WR, San Francisco 49ers – Caught 7 of 8 targets for 61 yards, TD.
Derrick Willies, WR, Cleveland Browns – Caught 3 of 5 targets for 61 yards.

Odell Beckham, Jr. is not happy with his lack of production and the Giants’ inability to get the ball downfield. It is particularly frustrating considering the Giants have Saquon Barkley to take some pressure off of Eli Manning and the passing game. Will Beckham’s expression of his displeasure result in the squeaky wheel getting greased?
.
I’m venturing to guess the answer is yes.
.
Through four games Beckham has yet to score a touchdown. This is a guy that entered the season with 38 touchdowns in 47 career games.
.
It’s not for lack of trying. Beckham has been targeted 45 times in four games (11.25 per game), securing 31 of them (7.75 per game) for 331 yards (82.75 per game). His longest reception of the season went for 30 yards and his 10.7 yards per catch is well below his 13.8 career average.
.
The Giants obviously aren’t intentionally not trying to frustrate the highest paid receiver in the league.
.
The game plan has been, and will continue to remain heavily focused on getting the ball to playmakers like Odell and Barkley.
.
Carolina yielded 272 yards to Matt Ryan, including 64 to WR1 Julio Jones and 352 yards to Andy Dalton, including 58 to WR1 AJ Green. WR2s Calvin Ridley (64 yards, TD) and Tyler Boyd (132 yards, TD) have had more success. Sterling Shepard should be a solid play as well this week, but I think this is the week we see a touchdown dance from Odell.
