Who Should I Start? Ray-Ray McCloud III or Darius Slayton

Sunday, November 9, 12:29 AM

According to Dan Salomone of Giants.com, the New York Giants have elevated wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday's matchup with the hosting Chicago Bears. McCloud III will suit up for a second consecutive game for the Giants after joining the squad roughly two weeks ago. In his debut, the 29-year-old played the second-most snaps of all New York wideouts (91%). However, he was targeted just once (1/5). While he may boast more work as he becomes more comfortable in his new surroundings, the Giants' passing offense has not found consistent success supporting multiple fantasy wide receivers. McCloud III will rank as RotoBaller's PPR WR88 for his clash with Chicago.

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (hamstring) is one of three Giants players to have already been ruled out for Sunday's Week 11 matchup with the Packers, along with quarterback Jaxson Dart (concussion). With Mike Kafka serving as interim head coach following the Monday firing of Brian Daboll, the team has already announced plans to start journeyman quarterback Jameis Winston, but who he will be throwing to is now another question entirely. Receiver Wan'Dale Robinson and tight end Theo Johnson suddenly become very interesting plays for fantasy managers willing to roll the dice and shoot for upside. Even against a Packers' pass defense that has been suffocating at times, Winston's propensity to hyper-target his top pass catchers and willingness to throw into windows that most quarterbacks would not, is a recipe for fantasy fireworks.
