Over/Under: 50

Saints Implied Team Total: 26.75
Giants Implied Team Total: 23.25

It's okay if you aren't excited about this game. That's kind of the point, actually. The New York Giants aren't known as an offensive powerhouse but the New Orleans Saints are so good at offense and bad at defense that they bring the shootout wherever they go. Eli Manning looked surprisingly competent on the road last weekend despite playing the defense that leads the league in quarterback hits, while the Saints rank eighth-worst in that category. There are definitely points to be had here.

Sterling Shepard, WR, New York Giants
FanDuel Price: $6,200

Shepard is an ideal spot regardless if you are stacking this game or not. The Saints biggest defensive weakness was in the slot last year, so they brought in Patrick Robinson to hold it down there. Robinson is now headed to the IR with a broken ankle and the Saints secondary was already looking shaky before the injury. So the matchup is already good in a potential shootout. But the Giants will also be without Evan Engram (knee), opening up extra targets in the middle of the field for Shepard. Sure enough, Shepard exploded for six catches, 80 yards and a touchdown with Engram missing most of last week despite not facing negative game script, something that the Giants may face here. Number-two receivers have already destroyed the Saints as Marshon Lattimore chases every team's number-one. Shepard is a borderline must-play in all formats.

Eli Manning, QB, New York Giants
FanDuel Price: $7,100

You know the deal with the Saints' three-headed monster, so let's focus on the less obvious play. Eli was efficient and poised last weekend, putting together one of his best performances in memory despite playing on the road against a good pass rush. While his low floor and lack of consistency makes him a dicier cash play, he's one of the best quarterback GPP options on the slate against this atrocious Saints passing defense. We'll keep attacking this defense until proven otherwise and the hope is Manning's general Eli-ness will keep his ownership low this week.

Others to Consider

Like every week, there's not much to say about Drew Brees ($8,700), Alvin Kamara ($9,100) and Michael Thomas ($9,000). All are elite options in a good matchup, but all three are the most expensive options at their respective positions. Fitting Kamara and Thomas is doable with Eli and Shepard if you throw in the aforementioned Eifert and Boyd to free up salary.

I'm not interested in anyone else on the Saints side other than Benjamin Watson ($5,200), who quietly set season highs in targets (6), receptions (5), and yards (71) last week. The Giants were a weekly target for tight end streamers in 2017 and have faced some barely-there tight end groups thus far this year.

Odell Beckham ($8,600) is legitimately always in play and has established himself as cornerback-proof. There are better plays in the price range, but that should also keep his ownership low. The beauty in stacking this game is the concentrated scoring output on both sides. This leaves us with just Saquon Barkley ($8,000) left, and he's certainly in play. The Saints have reversed their run-funnel tendencies from last season, but Barkley is firmly a GPP option given his receiving floor and home run play upside.
