Dallas Goedert Shows You Can Play Him; But Should You?Eagles TE Dallas Goedert snagged a game-high 8 receptions for 78 yards in Monday night's OT loss to the Chargers. His 10 targets trailed only WR A.J. Brown's 13 in a game that included a season-high 40 Philly pass attempts.
DeVonta Smith caught 4-of-8 targets for 37 yards in the Eagles' Week 14 loss to the Chargers.Smith's eight targets ranked third on the team behind A.J. Brown and Dallas Goedert, while his 37 yards extended a streak of six games without reaching the century mark. With just three touchdowns and two 100-yard games on the season, Smith has yet to live up to lofty preseason expectations for fantasy drafters that took him in premium rounds. He'll have every opportunity to return usable counting stats when the Eagles host the Raiders in Week 15.

A.J. Brown caught 6-of-13 targets for 100 yards in the Eagles' Week 14 loss to the Chargers.Brown's solid fantasy performance was mired by a couple key plays. Early in the first quarter, Brown was seen "taking a play off" on a screen to DeVonta Smith, missing two opportunities to lay a block. Smith was tackled for a minimal gain. Later in the game, Brown saw a pass deflect off his hands and into the defender's, resulting in one of four Jalen Hurts interceptions on the evening. Brown has now hit the 100-yard threshold in three consecutive games, all three of which were losses by the Eagles. He'll get a much more forgiving matchup in Week 15 against the Raiders.
