The New York Giants and Cleveland Browns will face off this week in a game between teams heading in different directions. The Giants are looking to crash the playoff picture and show that they are true contenders while the Browns are just looking to get into the win column for the first time this season.

While the two teams couldn’t be much further apart in terms of playoff hopes this is still a game that will still garner attention in the fantasy football world. The fantasy football regular season is winding down with one or two weeks remaining in many seasons. It is make or break time for fantasy football owners looking to sneak into the playoffs or solidify their standing in the league.

The Giants and Browns are not a matchup many people will want to tune in to watch but fantasy football players will find some value here. Despite being one of the lower projected scoring games based on Las Vegas over/under totals there are still some players that could help your fantasy football team this week.

While the Giants have a much-improved defense, there are still some weaknesses. They may not give up many points, but they have a penchant for giving up a lot of yardage in games.

Any points count in fantasy football. This is a game that may be overlooked by some but should deliver some solid value based on matchups. Check out our slideshow of the five must start players in fantasy football.
