Ramses Barden-WR- Giants Nov. 18 - 10:19 am et

Felix Jones-RB- Cowboys Nov. 18 - 9:55 am et


Cowboys coach Wade Phillips admitted that Felix Jones' struggles in pass protection keep him off the field.

Phillips says he wants to feature Jones more, but prefers to have Marion Barber or Tashard Choice out there when pass protection is needed. "He's just not as adept at it yet," Phillips said. Jones should probably be on fantasy benches unless an injury strikes Barber or Choice.

Marion Barber-RB- Cowboys Nov. 18 - 9:48 am et


Cowboys coach Wade Phillips admitted that his offense needs to be more balanced.

The Cowboys called just three rushing plays in the second half of the Week 10 loss to the Packers and they are running just 43.1 percent of the time on the season. Marion Barber is starting to look explosive again after his early-season quad injury. Look for offensive coordinator Jason Garrett to feature the run more against the 'Skins this week, making Barber a nice RB2.

Giants coach Tom Coughlin indicated that Ramses Barden could be a red-zone option in the near future.

Barden, a 6'6 rookie, has been active in just two games because of his struggles on special teams and his inability to adjust to the speed of the NFL game coming out of I-AA Cal Poly. Still, the Giants are in desperate need of a red-zone threat and Barden is a name to keep an eye on, especially in dynasty leagues.
