Who Will Be QB3 For Steelers?With the battle for QB3 on the Steelers between QBs Brian St. Pierre and Charlie Batch, another name has emerged that could allow the team to release both players: WR Antwaan Randle-El.

Two More Sleepers To ConsiderIf you are in the last round and you already have two Ks and two Ds and are looking for a sleeper RB to finish out the draft, look at the Steelers RB Willie Parker and the Texans rookie RB Vernand Morency. Both are making noise in their camps and could end up with some good playing time if the ball bounces in their direction this season.

Panthers RB ReturnsPanthers RB Stephen Davis finally returned to practice Monday after a nine month hiatus from football due to a fractured knee. He could be a deep sleeper in large leagues.

Looking For A Sleeper? Try This GuyIf you are drafting a fantasy team this week and are looking for a sleeper that not many people will think of, take a chance on WR Samie Parker of the Chiefs. He is quietly making noise in camp, and the Chiefs always put up points. He could grab some significant TDs as the Chiefs WR2.
Posted by joe at 3:50 AM
Bears RB NewsAs fantasy drafts approach, there seems to be little stability in the Bears running game. The Cedric Benson situation is getting ugly, and RB Thomas Jones is slowly creeping up the cheat sheets. If you are around pick 120 in your draft and are looking toward a RB, you have a choice: take the sure thing in Jones, or take a gamble on Benson. The answer is not simple. Either guy will be a backup on your team, so TCFS says, look for a home run, especially in keeper leagues, and grab Benson. He might sign quick and be a stud by season's end. There's a lot of ifs in the Windy City, so the best advice should be to stay away from Chicago RBs.

HUTCHINSON TERRIBLE IN FIRST STARTThe Chad Hutchinson ERA got off to a terrible start in his first start since Rex Grossman was lost. Chad was 5-8 for 40 yards but threw 2 untimely INT's. A creer under 70 QB rating Hutchinson cannot be considered the QB of the future for the Bears. Kyle Orton may get his chance a lot sooner than expected and he has a chip on shoulder since he fell so late in the draft to prove all the other teams wrong. Fantasy owners should stay clear of this situation.
