Fantasy Football Player Notes

Devonta Smith has certainly had a bit of an up-and-down rookie season so far, but he's continuing to be heavily targeted and he's strung together two solid back-to-back performances. Smith led the Eagles in targets in week five against the Panthers with eight and he turned it into seven receptions for 77 yards and no score. While he did have a touchdown this past week, it was called back due to an illegal pick play in the end zone by Greg Ward. Additionally, Smith lost a fumble last week which hurt his overall fantasy finish, but the production is there enough in this Eagles offense that we can rely on him moving forward. It might not be as a low-end WR2 or higher like everyone was hoping for at the beginning of the season, but he's a steady and reliable mid-range/low-end WR3 that does come with some upside in this matchup against the Bucs' secondary that's bleeding fantasy points. Otherwise, none of the other Eagles' WRs should be considered for fantasy football.
