Fantasy Impact: Barden's fantasy value took a bit of a hit last week when Domenik Hixon started for Hakeem Nicks. Hixon had a strong game against the Eagles and should stay ahead of Barden on the depth chart even when Barden is 100 percent. Barden's value would increase If Nicks again can't play but Hixon is the better fantasy value for Week 5.
