Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to NFL.com's Marc Sessler, that's no surprise here in August. Sessler went on to explain the Giants have been a meritocracy under HC Tom Coughlin, meaning preseason will decide this race. Yes, Wilson has been talked up as the potential starter, but the Giants have historically split carries between backs and Brown figures to see his share of the workload. Especially at the goal line. Either way, it seems like a situation that could provide fantasy owners with two viable plays. Wilson -- also tabbed for kick returns -- finished his rookie campaign with 358 yards and four touchdowns on 71 carries. Brown last season had 385 yards and eight touchdowns on 73 tries. Per Sessler, the difference is Wilson's explosiveness, making it tough for New York to pull him off the field. But there will be a time share with Brown getting his shots.
