New KR For Packers

In a move that should benefit the Oackers D/ST, reports from Green Bay are that WR Koren Robinson will be the team's kick returner beginning in Week 8.

Ravens TE Out For Season?

The Ravens could be without receiving TE Daniel Wilcox this season. Not that he would make or break your fantasy team, but he does collect a few TDs usually annually.

Texans QB1?

As amazing as it sounds, QB Matt Schaub looks like the Texans QB1 this week, but he is not 100% and he'll probably be a bad play this week. It seems illogical to think that we won't see QB Sage Rosenfels at some point on Sunday.

New Starting QB For Panthers

Panthers QB Vinny Testavrde will be the team's starting QB this Sunday, replacing QB David Carr, who is still injured.

Stay Away From This RB

With the Lions expecting not to activate him this week, stay away from RB Tatum Bell for the immediate future.

Expanded Role For Hiliard

The Bucs are planning on using WR2 Ike Hilliard also at punt returner, adding to his fantasy value a bit.

Titans News

Titans QB Vince Young will start this week, but both Rb Chris Brown and WR Brandon Jones will either be inactive or used very little to be of any fantasy value this week.

Raiders Starting Week 8 QB

The Raiders will almost certainly start QB Daunte Culpepper for their Week 8 game.

Miller News

The Steelers will have TE Heath Miller in their starting lineup this week.

Morency News

Word out of Green Bay is that RB Vernand Morency will be limited on Sunday.

And, finally, 49ers QB Alex Smith is probable to play in Week 8, but still may be a gameday scratch.

Pennington News

Jets QB Chad Pennington is going to be a bad play for fantasy owners, as he will be pulled on the first couple of mistakes he makes. The Jets are at wits end with him and will probably bring in QB Kellen Clemens the first chance they get.

Holmes Update

The Chiefs are expecting to use RB Priest Holmes at least 10-15 time per game from this point forward in 2007. He is a decent pick up this season.

EFF - Wednesday Night Quick Hits

Following up on an earlier report from EFF, the Falcons have reported that the move from QB Joey Harrington to QB Byron Leftwich is a permanent move. Harrington is now the QB2 for the Falcons.

QB Alex Smith and TE Vernon Davis will most likely start for the 49ers this week.

The NFL has reinstated WR Koren Robinson. He is expected to start working out with the Packers immediately, and will srve as the team's WR4. He is also expected to be an upgrade for the team's special teams as a returner. The Packers D/ST should be moved up couple slots.

Among WRs with zero TDs, Jets WR Jerricho Cotchery leads the NFL with 485 yards.

Jets Rb Thomas Jones is 2nd in the NFL with 139 consecutively carries without a TD. Seahawks RB Maurice Morris leads the NFL with 220 straight carries.

The Patriots will start either Laurence Maroney or Kevin Faulk at RB this week. Traditional thinking is leaning toward Faulk. RB Sammie Morris is a non-factor this week.

The Rams have signed WR Travis Tayor to provide depth for the teams receiving corps.

QB Change Coming To Atlanta?

Reports out of Atlanta having the Falcons benching QB Joey Harrington and giving Byron Leftwich a chance at improving the inept offense of the falcons. Either way the QB of Atlanta is not a viable option to fantasy owners and with the weak blocking O-Line of Atlanta the change in QB will not make any difference in the box score.

Moss Tops In NFL

Patriots WR Randy Moss leads the NFL in catch percentage. He has 31 catches in 34 chances. He is fast becoming a favorite player in New England.

Panthers Carr To Remain Starter

Don't count on QB Panther Jake Delhomme under center any time soon. Reports out of Carolina have his elbow injury as "significant" to the recoup time is being spoken as month to month rather than week to week. In the mean time David Carr will continue to be the teams starter. If last weeks lackluster performance is any indication WR Steve Smith and he have no chemistry together which will effect Smiths' value. Keep an eye on Smith's stats carefully and trading him may be a viable option while his value is still high to garner a significant return of players.
