Jordy Nelson was the highlight of the weekend once again, but not for a good reason. He left after a brutal hit (should have been a penalty, IMO) broke "at least" two of his ribs. Randall Cobb utilized the opportunity to dominate the Giants, hauling in five of seven targets for 116 yards and a TRIO of scores. Antonio Brown was incredibly efficient as always, totaling 124 yards on five catches for two scores. Odell Beckham, Jr. made a fool of himself on AND off the field this past weekend, while Jarvis Landry was solid in a losing effort. Let's move on to the second weekend of playoff NFL action:
Cash Game Wide Receivers
Davante Adams, Green Bay Packers | |||||
| Salary | Opponent | Team Total | WR Rank (FO) | Cafe Value | Projection |
| $7,400 | @Cowboys | 24 | 11 | 11.22 | 12.23 |
With the aforementioned Jordy Nelson looking very unlikely to play this weekend (I would be stunned if he played, but he looks like a GTD), Adams would be the de facto #1 target for the hottest QB on the planet in Aaron Rodgers. The Cowboys rank 18th against the pass, per Football Outsiders, and Adams is has found the end zone four times in the last three games, even with Nelson in the mix. Adams saw 12 targets last week against a tough Giants defense, and with Nelson looking iffy at best, we will likely see Adams as the highest-owned WR on the slate this weekend if Jordy can't go. Don't overthink this one, especially in cash games.
