Not sure the severity of each of the players injuries, but I read that the Giants left the game with one healthy receiver? Any potential adds here?

Honestly even if there is anyone why would you want them?

Shepard and Marshall are sprains ..

Leaves,..

Roger Lewis
Dwayne Harris

Practice Squad:
Marquis Bundy
Travis Rudolph
Ed Gagan

They also can sign someone from other teams' practice squads ..

Actually, just Lewis left. Dwayne Harris broke his foot in this game. The Giants lost not one, not two, not three, but their top 4 WRs today. WTF.

Some practice players like Tanner Gentry, Malachi Dupre, DeAngelo Yancey, Michael Clark, Marcus Kemp, Cayleb Jones, Travin Dural, Greg Ward Jr, Bobo Wilson, Maurice Harris

Could be some fun :P

How much, if any, does this boost Engram?

Travis Rudolph benefits the most from these injuries. He had good chemistry in the preseason and most were surprised he didn't make the roster. Familiarity with the offense should help.

Boosts his target share ROS but I wouldn't consider starting any Giants the next two weeks @Den vs Sea.

I think Shepard will return the soonest and he should be an attractive target hog with Engram. Giants will just need to grab field stretcher, or use engram as one for Shepard :D

I have Engram and was forced to start him. Somehow had no catches today..

He's definitely fast enough to play WR if they needed him to, but the fact that he had 0 catches on 4 targets today seems like a bad sign. He doesn't have the instincts for it, he needs development. Still, a TE that gets WR targets could easily win a league, so pick him up in all your redrafts. Not sure this effects his long-term value all that much, though it had already been ticking upwards.

Victor Cruz is a free agent that they are very familiar with, I'd expect him to get a call soon. They also know Tavarres King. Other than that, the biggest name in the WR free agent market is Dorial Green-Beckham :biggrin:

If the Giants are 0-5 and Eli has a fake neck injury any chance they would start Davis Webb?

That Engram showing killed me, and seemed very off. I didn't watch the game but he has looked great so far. I can now only hope that he starts pulling in 10+ targets a game. No better way to develop than through constant volume.
