James Conner Is A Solid RB1 In Week 16

Friday, December 20, 11:55 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner is a must-start RB1 in Week 16 when the Cardinals face the Carolina Panthers on the road. Conner will look to eclipse 1,000 rushing yards for a second straight season, entering this game with 973 yards. He has been a workhorse all year, posting ten games with 20 or more touches. The Cardinals have no margin for error if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive, and the offense has relied on Conner to carry the load. Since signing his contract extension, Conner has put together back-to-back games with 90 or more rushing yards. The vibes are high with Conner and the Cardinals' rushing attack, and fantasy managers should trust him in this matchup.

Darius Slayton Sees Six Targets On Sunday

Monday, December 9, 9:42 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton saw six targets as the team threw the ball 49 times in a loss to the New Orleans Saints. The 27-year-old finished with two receptions for 27 yards in an overall rough day for the team. Despite seeing 12 targets over the last two games, he's only been able to turn them into four catches for 35 yards. While the Giants head for the first-overall pick in the next draft, the passing game is hard to trust down the stretch. The Giants will take on the Ravens in Week 15.
