Patrick Crayton Dealt to San Diego: Fantasy Impact

Posted by on Sep 3, 2010 in Fantasy Football


The Dallas Cowboys dealt WR Patrick Crayton to the San Diego Chargers on Friday afternoon for a 2011 7th round draft pick.

Lots of fantasy implications on this one, folks.

  • Vincent Jackson is both suspended and holding out. Crayton makes him expendable. Watch for that situation to possibly take a turn soon.
  • If Crayton was dealt, Dez Bryant must be ready for Week One. Lots of analysts have seen him in practice and have fallen head-over-heels in love with the kid’s ability.
  • Philip Rivers now has a second outside target. Fantasy value: up.
  • Malcolm Floyd now has a target other than Antonio Gates on the roster. His value impact is mixed; Crayton will take away attention… and throws.
  • Crayton now has value, which wasn’t true in Dallas. Keep an eye on Crayton on the waiver wire.
