Except for the fact that last time he played against Washington with Nicks and S. Smith out he was almost invisible.
He's the guy to pick up. Washington is nothing special in the defensive category but after Eli had 4 or 5 picks last week, you'd have to think that the Giants want to at least try and run the football. If they have success doing that, I would think they'd run the ball against the Skins. Then again, the Skins stuffed the Jags last week so if the Giants are forced to throw more than they want, Hagan could potentially be a sneaky start although he hasn't done a lot with the time he was given when Knicks was out the last time.After surviving Vick last night, I have had Knicks knocked out and news that Rivers may not play all of the last game due to their season being over. Replacing Knicks with Mike Williams Tampa Bay so I'm not totally bummed but STOP the bleeding here.
Thanks for the timely heads up! I've had Nicks on my teams for two years, and would again next year -- he's a consistent performer and doesn't seem particularly injury prone to me.
no better options? Simpson perhaps?
I'm looking at Simpson, Ford, Mason, MMorris, and Buckhalter to replace Nicks. Simpson blew up last week - can he do it again - this time against the Ravens? One of his TDs was pretty fluky last week when Cason wasn't paying attention against the hurry-up.
Im not so sure of this, he does seem to get banged up quite a bit in his 2 seasons. Maybe not injury prone yet, but he is starting to trend in the wrong direction.
Agreed. I will jump ship on him in the off-season if this continues.
I will admit I don't remember Nicks' injury situation in 2009, but 2010 is a broken toe in Week 17, and Compartment Syndrome which will most likely not come back.And he's only 22-23. Can't really label it nor say he's headed in that direction when a lot of players get dinged up.
