Packers vs. Giants: Fantasy football projections featuring Aaron Rodgers, Eli Manning, Randall Cobb
We break down the pertinent fantasy projections for the Week 12 matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the New York Giants.
Matthew Stockman
Green Bay Packers
Aaron Rodgers is Aaron Rodgers and should be starting in all leagues. Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and James Jones should also see nice numbers. The big question mark this week is Greg Jennings (groin). He's listed as questionable and the Packers are hinting that he'll either be inactive or on a very limited snap count. I expect them to target Week 13 for his full return. The run game is still not there and fantasy owners shouldn't bother with James Starks or Alex Green.
New York Giants
Eli Manning is perhaps the biggest fantasy question mark of the week. After a hot start to the season, he had three games in a row of inexplicably terrible football. Hopefully the bye week gave him a chance to get his head straight and right the ship.
Most of the other players' fantasy performance depends on Eli. If he rebounds in the Giants' pass-heavy attack, Victor Cruz and Hakeem Nicks will benefit accordingly. If he doesn't, expect another quiet week from both.
