Video: Top 50 Rest Of Season WR Rankings (Updated)
Dvontto Smith, same deal. They're talking about shutting him down, but they haven't placed him on the IR. and Joe Milton is starting at quarterback. Like if you were asking me a question in a 10 team league and you were like, 'Hey, I'm going to take a zero in my starting lineup unless I drop the Vontto Smith.' I'd be like, 'Do what you got to do, man.'

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Drop candidate despite no IR; shutdown risk with Joe Milton at QB.

Joey Faniano flags DeVonta Smith as a potential drop candidate despite no IR placement, citing shutdown risk and the Eagles' QB transition to Joe Milton. While the team is discussing shutting Smith down, the lack of formal IR designation creates roster uncertainty. Faniano advises that in 10-team leagues, if forced to choose between starting Smith or taking a zero, dropping him is justified given the fantasy football postseason's importance and the need to bias toward reliable fantasy points.
