Not serious, day to day
"The Giants' wide receiver received good news following an MRI on his hamstring this afternoon, according to someone informed of the results of the exams. The person, who requested anonymity because all injury information is supposed to come from Tom Coughlin, described Nicks as "all good" after aggravating a strain in the muscle late in Sunday's victory over the Dolphins."

I love Victor Cruz. Bet that zumba dance in the end zone really pisses off Nicks owners. It's funny how FBG's keep calling Cruz lucky to put up the stats he accumulates. That to his credit, he capitalizes on his opportunities. I get the Nicks love, but give Cruz his due.
did u watch the game? nicks killed his own value with at least 3 drops.he is targeted plenty. 8.7/game. was targeted most on the team at 10 last game.his emergence has killed Nicks' value

I thought he killed Manningham's value? That was the story 3 weeks ago.
Don't worry, Barden will be back soon and playing in the slothttp://www.nj.com/giants/index.ssf/2011/10/giants_ramses_barden_now_healt.htmlThat'll clear things upI thought he killed Manningham's value? That was the story 3 weeks ago.

Hammy's are hard to judge though. If he is supposed to start, I will start him, but it wouldnt suprise me if he aggravates it or something during the game.

Pretty well respected, but I'd wait to see if this is opinion or fact. His small bio: http://newyork.cbslocal.com/personality/paul-dottino/

I asked the same question
but looked him up and he's a known NYG beat writer, plus NFL Network wouldn't put on a nobody. but this isn't the first time a reporter/analyst thought Nicks would miss time and he played. Waiting for Nicks to speak on it, if he says he goes, he goes.oh I don't plan on anything with BardenGood luck with that.Don't worry, Barden will be back soon and playing in the slothttp://www.nj.com/gi..._now_healt.htmlI thought he killed Manningham's value?

Picked up Manningham off waivers last night (I know crazy!) and I already have Cruz. Looking forward to a shootout against the Patriots. With Bradshaw's foot issue, the G-Men are going to pass, pass, pass. I got my 
ready.
ready.

this is surprising. oh well better than a GTD IMO since that game is a 4pm start. now we can make contingency plans.

My first year owning Nicks and its a pain in the butt. I have no idea how I ranked him ahead of Wallace.
I took him ahead of Wallace also. Huge mistake. I had Wallace last year and still passed him.

Offered Bowe for him last week. Was close to making that deal, but it fell through, as he wanted more. Glad it did now.
gawd you guys are such whiners. nicks is having a fine year. if he gets the least bit hot, which you should damn well expect given where you drafted him, it will be a great year. hes on pace for 1300 and 7, its fine. its like last yr when jennings was meh for a few games and up popped hundred post threads #####ing about him.

Doubt he will play this weekend based on the multiple sources I have looked at (as of Fri, 11-4 @ 9:30-ish). Seek other options for this week - but hang onto the kid - he is a weapon.
yes.He is tough and plays through far more than most WRs, but gets hurt even moreso and still misses plenty or at least gives the impression he will miss time for FF.

The ability to separate fantasy feelings from actual NFL reality is awfully difficult lately round here. He is easily one of the most talented WRs we have seen come out of the draft in the last 3-4 years and has had monster games but suddenly he is a pile of manure because he happened to land on your FF team.

He was quoted saying that this season he wanted to finish all 16 games to prove to everyone and himself that he can last an entire season. That tells me he is a class act. Not to mention he doesn't cause any probems for his team or himself. This guy is a proven stud and I had to take him in the 2nd when he fell to me.
I have a list of players I tend to stay away from and Nicks isn't even close to being on it. If he misses this week and next but then returns for me for the playoffs I'm very very pleased at that point.

Pretty sure this is Calvin's 5th year, so if thats the case, I think Nicks is the best WR drafted in the last 4 years. Wallace is right there with him, Green/Julio/Maclin could all turn out better, but he is the best WR for my money. Wallace and him are actually more like 1a and 1b, with Wallace having the gamechanging speed but Nicks has vastly superior ballskills.'Ministry of Pain said:
Some positive news on Nicks
http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/7211794/new-york-giants-hakeem-nicks-set-practice-ahmad-bradshaw-out
Looks like he has a good chance of playing this week unless he would suffer a setback in practice.

Nicks expecting to do individual drills tomorrow. Did some running and cutting today. Trying to be smart with the hammy.

WR Hakeem Nicks (hamstring) did not take any team reps as Coughlin has hoped. Listed as did not practice.

It's too bad that they play in the NL, because maybe Nicks could be designated hitter even if he is not fully recovered from his hamstring injury. There's no way he will play in the outfield if he is bothered by a hamstring.
Nicks participated in practice today.
