Fantasy Football Player Notes
2024 Half PPR Draft Rankings
40.
Malik Nabers
WR - (at PHI)
Malik Nabers, emerging from a robust 3-year stint at LSU, led all college wide receivers with 86 receptions, 1,546 yards, and 14 touchdowns during his junior year, boasting a 34% dominator rating. Over his collegiate career, he totaled 186 receptions for 2,983 yards and 21 touchdowns, marked by a standout 28% career college dominator rating-third among 2024 draft class WRs. Notably, Nabers broke out as a freshman at 18, indicating significant potential for early professional success. Now with the New York Giants, he is poised to become the team's top receiver from the outset. His ability to generate yards after the catch (YAC) reassures concerns about the team's quarterback situation, enhancing his fantasy value.

Devin Singletary
RB - (at PHI)
Devin Singletary steps in as the Giants' new lead back with some big shoes to fill with Saquon Barkley's departure. Last year, with the Texans, he proved again that he could be a solid starting tailback in the NFL as he stepped in during the middle of the season and stole the starting job away from Dameon Pierce in Houston. In Weeks 9-18, he averaged 19 touches and 86.6 total yards as the RB21 in fantasy points per game. Singletary continues to roll along as an efficient rusher. Last year, he was 19th in explosive run rate and 22nd in missed tackles forced per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). While the Giants aren't the sexiest landing spot, Singletary should flirt with RB2 production as the team's bellcow.

Wan'Dale Robinson
WR - (at PHI)
Wan'Dale Robinson finished the season as the WR61 in points per game leading Big Blue in catches (60). Don't be too quick to forget that Robinson came off a devasting injury last season, but only missed 2 games in 2023. He's a fine slot receiver with a decently high target rate (21%), but he will only go as far as the Giants offense will go in 2024. Still, I'd expect him to improve in 2024 another year removed from injury as a darkhorse catches leader for New York. 20% target share over the final 6 games of the season. Throughout 11-11 periods in training camp per the Athletic, Robinson has caught 47 of Jones' 167 completions (28%).

Tyrone Tracy Jr.
RB - (at PHI)
Tracy's NFL career could be much better than his collegiate one when it's all said and done. Last year's tackle-breaking metrics should raise your eyebrows, especially for a player still acclimating to the position. Tracy ranked fourth in yards after contact per attempt and fifth in elusive rating (per PFF). Purdue offered him the most vanilla offensive role possible in the passing game with his receiver background. I expect the Giants to rectify that when he does garner snaps. Tracy only has to unseat Eric Gray to earn the RB2 role for the Giants. Gray didn't do anything to wow the team last year with his 2.8 yards per carry and 1.53 yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). Devin Singletary looks like the team's workhorse, but if he goes down, Tracy could take over three-down duties. He's one of the best handcuff options in drafts. His ankle sprain could cause many to pause and avoid him, but we're drafting handcuffs for their full-season upside, not for early-season production.
