WiscoFalcon Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Vic Beasley has a huge opportunity this week. By Justin Dade, Falcons Correspondent, Wed, Sep 16th 1:24pm EDT Falcons first round pick OLB Vic Beasley has been progressing nicely since being drafted, and showed some flashes Week 1 against the Eagles. The Falcons will be taking on the Giants this week in a big game that could provide a huge opportunity for Beasley in a key match-up. Rookie OT Ereck Flowers will be lined up as the starting LT for the Giants this week, which will be a much easier task than going up against a player of Jason Peters' caliber again. Flowers struggled a bit in the preseason, and is now also nursing an ankle injury he suffered in their Week 1 game against the Cowboys. Beasley will likely be lined up against Flowers early and often to give him a chance to record his first career sack. Fantasy Impact: Flowers' injury whether it's major or not, provides a huge advantage to Beasley with his speed coming off of the edge. I expect to see a big breakout game from the rookie pass rusher out of Clemson as this is the perfect opportunity for him to prove himself against another highly drafted rookie. Beasley is a solid IDP option this week. Feel free to check out my other content on FantasyPros here - https://twitter.com/jcdfantasy Thanks!

JDaveG Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I thought he did well against Peters. He should feed against Flowers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HASHBROWN3 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 He gave Peters problems. Peters is a bad azz and one heck of a respected, valuable player for the Eagles.Don't be surprised if/when the Giants give Flowers help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that will mean Hageman is getting some 1 on 1 looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper72 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I need to go back and skim over the NYG/DAL game, but doesn't Eli revert to underneath passes just like the Eagles did in the second half? That was frustrating to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
