Z. Ertz - TE

PHI

Eagles coach Doug Pederson doesn't expect Zach Ertz (ankle, IR) to play in Week 12 against Seattle.

Pederson said there's been "no setback" with Ertz, but he's unlikely to play after it looked like he was trending in right direction. It'll be another week of Dallas Goedert and Richard Rodgers against Seattle's league worst secondary. The Eagles are hoping to get Ertz back for Week 13.

M. Kidd-Gilchrist - SF

DAL

The Knickerbockers reportedly decided to add Michael Kidd-Gilchrist to their roster on a one-year deal.

He's a power forward with zero range or any offensive game to speak of, so he should fit right in amongst the other 357 bigs in New York. It's even possible that Tom Thibodeau could give him way too many minutes at the expense of guys like Julius Randle, Obi Toppin and Mitchell Robinson in the name of defense. We're mostly joking here, but regardless of the sort of playing time MKG may be looking at with the Knicks, under no circumstances should he be considered a viable target in fantasy hoops.

S. Milton - SG

PHI

Daryl Morey believes Shake Milton can take another step forward in his third NBA season.

"I think the league hasn't caught up to how good Shake can be," wrote Morey in a recent AMA on Reddit. "It was one of the first things Doc [Rivers] and I spoke about after I joined — we are excited to see what he can do this year." How useful Milton will be as a fantasy asset will depend on where Ben Simmons starts, and how ready Tyrese Maxey is for minutes his rookie season, but Milton flashed his potential in last year's red hot run through five games in March. With Morey hyping him up, he's someone to think about as a potential late-round flier in deep leagues.

T. Thompson - DB

Chiefs waived S Tedric Thompson.

It's the second time Thompson has been cut in the last eight months. Thompson played only 14% of defensive snaps in eight appearances with the Chiefs. The 25-year-old will head back to free agency if they clear waivers.

K. Vesalainen - F

WPG

Kristian Vesalainen is working on his overall game on the ice, rather than concentrating on his goal-scoring.

Vesalainen was loaned to HPK Hameenlinna the Finnish Liiga by the Jets on October 21 and while he has four goals and eight points in nine games, he is working on the other parts of his game. "That’s one thing I’ve thought about a lot, having to play a different type of game," Vesalainen said in conversation with the Free Press. "Obviously, the top six (forward group) in Winnipeg is really good and it’s going to be hard to take someone’s spot. If I’m going to make the team, I probably have to start somewhere else, for sure. That means I have to do different things...I’ve been focusing so much this year on the (defensive) zone game. I have a big body and I have to use it, just skating hard and checking more. So, that’s been a few things I’ve tried to do here in the Finnish league. For sure, obviously, it’s going to be a big thing if I crack the roster this time because there’s so many good players." Vesalainen was taken in the first round, 24th overall, in 2017 and played five games with the Jets in 2018-19, picking up one assist.

W. Dufour - F

NYI

William Dufour, the Islanders fifth round pick in 2020, has six goals in his last five games with Drummondville of the QMJHL.

It has been quite the start to the season of fifth round picks taken from the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League as Dufour has six goals and 10 points in eight games while the Flyers Elliot Desnoyers has exploded out of the gate with 12 goals and 25 points in 16 games. Desnoyers was taken 135th overall while Dufour was selected with the 152nd pick. The Islanders may have a gem on their hands in Dufour but he is years away from playing in the NHL, if he ever does make it.

G. Springer - CF

HOU

Shi Davidi of Sportsnet hears the Blue Jays and free agent outfielder have "progressed beyond just talking" about an agreement.

Trying to parse what that means is anyone's guess, but it does sound as though there's at least some fire to the smoke that's been circulating regarding the Jays and Springer in recent weeks. It would be a huge boost for the Jays, of course, as the 31-year-old has been among the game's premier leadoff hitters -- and really, hitters in general, no caveats -- in recent years. In 51 games in the truncated 2020 season, Springer hit .265/.359/.540 with 14 homers, 32 RBI and 37 runs scored. The Blue Jays aren't the only team reportedly interested in the outfielder's services, but one might consider them a frontrunner at this stage.

N. Niederreiter - F

CAR

Nino Niederreiter needs his offensive production to return if he wants to remain a top-six forward.

Right now Niederreiter is slated to be on the second line, alongside Martin Necas and Vincent Trocheck with the Hurricanes this season. Niederreiter had 29 points last season which was just one point less than the previous season but Niederreiter played in 67 games in 2019-20 and only 36 in 2018-19. He could return to his previous form but we cannot recommend him on draft day at this time.
