Dyami Brown's Strong Camp Hasn't Cleared a Path to Targets

Monday, August 10, 11:12 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown has made enough plays in camp to stay in the conversation, including a touchdown from Jayden Daniels during Monday's competitive period. The problem is that Washington's receiver room changed around him. The Commanders signed Stefon Diggs last week, and their first unofficial depth chart lists Terry McLaurin, Luke McCaffrey and Diggs atop the three receiver spots, with Brown behind McLaurin. Dan Quinn quickly dismissed that chart as little more than a preseason snapshot, so it should not be treated as final. Brown still has work to do to turn practice flashes into fantasy volume. He caught just 20 passes for 227 yards and one touchdown on 37 targets in 14 games for Jacksonville last season, playing 31% of the offensive snaps. Brown can still earn a rotational role, but Diggs is already getting more work with Daniels and the target competition is only getting tougher. His camp is worth tracking, but the path to consistent redraft value remains narrow.

Malachi Fields a Lone Bright Spot in Preseason Loss to Vikings

Saturday, August 15, 4:48 PM

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malachi Fields hauled in all three targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in the team's 13-10 preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Fields was a factor on the first-team offense and earned more trust from quarterback Jaxson Dart, who threw him a 50/50 ball in the back of the end zone, which Fields came down with. The third-round pick played nine of 16 snaps with the first-team offense, while veterans Darnell Mooney (12) and Darius Slayton (12) each played more snaps. With star receiver Malik Nabers (knee) inactive for their preseason opener, all three receivers likely played more than they would have if Nabers had been on the field. However, Fields' production and highlight-reel touchdown from Dart were a bright spot amid the Giants' ugly offensive output.
