Eagles' D-Jax to start opposite Curtis
Way to go on the sleeper pick by taking DeSean Jackson of the Eagles. The rookie's the team-leading receiver, and he's going to continue to start over the injured Reggie Brown.
With Kevin Curtis back from his hernia, he, along with Jackson, will start at wideout going forward for Philly. Even when Brown does return, Jackson will remain the starter. Brown will likely be used in three wide-receiver sets.
Jackson's the team leader in receiving yards with 433 yards (17th in the league), and has found the box on a punt return, and almost on a reception (remember that Dallas fumble?). He's been by far the most impactful rookie wide receiver this year.
Jackson is a good WR2 start this week, while Curtis could be a flex this week against Atlanta's 26th ranked pass defense. Curtis is coming back from injury, so we want to wait and see he can produce before giving him a starting nod. Brown's value plummets with the move. He's barely worth holding on to in deeper leagues.
