Darius Slayton Undergoes Core-Muscle Surgery, Expected to be Ready for Camp

Thursday, April 30, 9:13 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (abdomen) recently had core-muscle surgery, sources told Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. Slayton will miss spring workouts, but he's expected to be a full-go for training camp this summer. Barring a setback in his recovery, Slayton should be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season this fall. Top wideout Malik Nabers (knee) is also recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered early last season, so there are some definite question marks for New York's receiving room heading into the upcoming campaign. Wan'Dale Robinson departed in free agency, but the G-Men added Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin III in free agency, and drafted Malachi Fields in the third round. The 29-year-old Slayton has seven years of experience in the NFL (all with the Giants), but he's never cleared 770 receiving yards, and he hasn't had more than four touchdowns in a single season since his rookie year, when he had eight. Slayton's roster spot in New York should be secure, but he'll be battling for targets with Mooney, Austin, and Fields, and he won't be a very intriguing late-round flier in standard 12-team fantasy leagues going into his eighth year in the league.

Romeo Doubs' Buy Window Could Soon Be Wide Open

Saturday, May 9, 5:13 AM

When wide receiver Romeo Doubs signed a four-year, $68 million deal with the New England Patriots, he shot all the way up to WR35 in consensus dynasty rankings, but with A.J. Brown all but assumed to be joining the team on or after June 1st, he has fallen nearly 15 spots in those same rankings. When or if a trade for Brown does become official, the inevitable dip to Doubs' value could make him one of the most attractive trade-for candidates in dynasty leagues. He will still be tied to 23-year-old MVP runner-up Drake Maye for the foreseeable future, and with many presuming that a trade for Brown could include downfield specialist Kayshon Boutte heading to Philadelphia, Doubs' role in two-receiver sets could be secure. His ceiling would obviously be capped in an offense with the three-time Pro Bowler Brown, but with the latter turning 29 in June, there is a world in which the 26-year-old Doubs could see his role continue to grow as the Patriots build an offense around Maye. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR58, the market has already punished Doubs for the presumed trade, but should managers essentially double-count the deal once it becomes official, he becomes an even more obvious buy.
