PLAYERS:
Peyton Manning
According to the Sporting News, the connection between QB Peyton Manning and WR Demaryius Thomas has been "balky" at times during practice. Thomas also didn't make precise cuts on multiple pass routes in the preseason.Fantasy Spin:Eric Decker is a better route runner than Thomas and we think he'll be more effective early in the season. We still like Thomas as a starting receiver this season due to his talent, but Manning's offense is predicated on exact timing so he may struggle to make an impact until he develops better route running skills.
