Green Bay Packers: Looking to get back on fantasy track

– Wide Receiver –

One receiver had a big game and another surprising got shut down. For Randall Cobb owners, you were flying high when you got done with Sunday’s beat down.

Jordy Nelson owners weren’t so lucky.

Nelson only caught three passes for 25 yards on 5 targets. He was completely taken out of the offensive picture from the get-go. Cobb, on the other hand, went for 126 yards and a score. Seventy yards came on the Packers’ first drive.

Davante Adams is starting to become a real fantasy option for the Packers. Last week, Adams was targeted a team-high nine times with Eddie Lacy.

Last time these receivers took on Chicago it was nothing but gold for fantasy owners.

This week I expect the same. The only interesting factor will be Davante Adams. How much will he take from Randall Cobb and Jordy Nelson? It’s a developing story that Packers receiver owners will have to pay attention to.
