Sharp take

Sharp SixStart

Limited practice on a hamstring is a Wednesday formality, not a red flag. Smith put up 27.7 FFPC points in Week 2 and he is rostered in 100% of leagues that matter; you are not benching that for a practice designation. Barkley is the queasier one at 3.0 and 9.0 the last two weeks in a 41.5-point game, but he is a first-round asset and the Eagles are 4.5-point favourites, which is the script he eats in. Start both and check the Friday report. If you were hunting for a reason to sit either, this is not it.
