Yahoo Fantasy Football on DeVonta Smith
From the article
After suffering another hamstring injury and sitting out Week 7, we're still waiting for the team to provide a timeline for his recovery. Normally an aggravation causes a player to miss even more action than the initial injury. Given the state of the Eagles offense, which will be led by backup quarterbacks for the remainder of the season, it's difficult to envision Smith producing like he was early in the season. Instead of waiting on him to return and hoping for the best, it's worth seeking out a trade partner.
STACKED’s take
Smith's hamstring aggravation and backup QB situation warrant selling low to reset for second half.
Smith suffered another hamstring injury and sat out Week 7, with the Eagles still waiting to provide a recovery timeline. Hamstring aggravations typically cause a player to miss even more action than the initial injury; Smith was sidelined for two games the first time, so it's logical to expect multiple weeks missed with this one. Given the Eagles offense will be led by backup quarterbacks for the remainder of the season, it's difficult to envision Smith producing like he did early in the season. Boone recommends selling low rather than waiting for his return and hoping for the best, suggesting managers package Smith with another piece, accept the lost value based on draft position, and take a clean slate into the second half of the season.
