EFF NEws And Notes- Chiefs WR Marc Bradley will see his first action of the year on Sunday. The team believes that Bradley could be the guy to take some of the pressure of the passing game away from TE Tony Gonzalez. -The Bengals PK position is still up in the air for Sunday. Shayne Graham(groin) was held out of practice on Friday and the team will make a game time decision on him Sunday during pre-game warm ups. If Graham is a no go Dave Raymer will step in for the Bengals - Bronco WR Brandon Stokley's playing status is uncertain for Monday night. Stokley is recovering from yet another concussion and the team with its' bye in week 7 may decide to give Stokley extra time to fully recover. - In an effort to get some life out of the WR's, the raiders will sit Ronald Curry and replace him in the starting line up with rookie 7th round draft pick Chaz Shilens. The Raiders are excited about Shilens who possesses the speed to get deep but is also a physical presence in short yardage situations as well. The Raiders are going to give Shilens a long and serious look to better gauge his talents in game situations. -The Seahawks will start QB Seneca Wallace for the injured Matt Hasselbeck(back and knee) this week v.

Of those 4 teams the Giants seem to be the only true contender for a title and a team that Gonzalez could make even stronger. The Giants have offered a 6th rounder but the Chiefs seem to be insistent on a 3rd. At 32 years old Gonzalez only has a few good years left and with the Plaxico Burress situation in New York seems to be the best fit. EFF

October 10, 2008EFf News And notes- Eagle RB Brian Westbrook will not plkay on Sunday against the 49ers due to his broken ribs. While Westbrook has been petitioning the team to let him play, Andy Reid decided to err on the side of caution and let Westbrook sit and hopefully heal. -Saint WR Marques Colston will play on Sunday albeit in a limited role. Colston will be on the field in 3 and 4 WR sets with Lance Moore and Deverey Henderson remaining in the starting positions. -bengal QB Carson Palmer will miss this weeks game with his elbow injury with Ryan Fitzpatrick starting the game under center. -Both Charger WR's could be on the sidelines on Sunday with Chris Chambers being the most severe. Chambers(ankle) still remains on crutches and Jackson having injured his knee in practice on Wednesday. Of the two it is more probable that Jackson will be in the starting lineup v. the patriots. -Early reports have the Detroit Lions pursuing FA QB Daunte Culpepper. While there has been some minimal contact there has been no formal negotiations as of yet. - Brown TE Kellen Winslow spent Thursday night in the hospital with what is being described as swollen balls. While not considered serious and a condition that will correct itself in time, it is painful and could be a precursor to testicular cancer. It is still unclear on whether or not Winslow will play on Sunday. -The Miami Dolphins have outscored their opponents 24-0 in 4th quarters this season and are the only team in the NFL to not have a point scored on them in the 4th quarter. - Still recovering from the vicious hit v. the Jets,Cardinal WR Anquan Boldin has been ruled out of this weeks game.

October 1, 2008Waiver Wire Pick UpsWhile a lot of the supposed elite players have not performed up to standards there are some FA's that could be an instant upgrade for teams. Here are the top performers that are still available on many leagues waiver wire 1) Steve Breaston (WR..ARZ) Breaston has fit in comfortably as the Cardinals #3 WR and last week in NY he racked up 122 yards receiving along with over 200 yards in return yardage. With the injury to Anquan Boldin looking as it could sideline him for a few weeks Breaston's value will surely rise. 2) Steve Slaton (RB..HOU) Slaton is the # RB in Houston and has scored a TD in each of the last 2 games. Slaton has shown he is a threat in both running the ball as well in the passing gameand with the Texans schedule( 4 straight at home) the offense may be able to maintain the momentum it showed last week. 3) Lance Moore (WR..NO) It looks like the absense of Marques Colston has elevated Moore into Drew Brees' go to WR. Over the last 2 weeks Moore has 14 receptions along with his 2 TD perfomance this last week. Brees is an elite fantasy QB which only can continue to benefit Moore. 4) Le'Ron McClain (RB..BALT) At first it appeared as if McClain would settle into the short yardage back but his play has earned him more and more carries. With the rib injury to Willis MaGahee McClain should be seeing an increased workload.McClain has scored 3 TD's the last 2 weeks and is the bruising type of back the Ravens have been searching for. 5) Kevin Walter (WR..HOU) Walter has been on quite a roll since the start of training camp. Walter has scored a TD in 5 of the 7 games the Texans have played and and was targeted 13 times last week v. the Jaguars. Walter is turning a solid #2 WR for the Texans and with a healthy Andre Johnson give the Texans a top WR tandem. 6) Miles Austin (WR..DALL) While Patrick Crayton is still the #2 WR in Dallas don't be surprised to start seeing Austin more and more as the season wears on. The Cowboys have seen all that Crayton has to offer and believe Austin has more upside than Crayton.Austin has scored a TD in each of his last 2 games and is a bigger more physical WR than Crayton.

EFF News And Notes-With Willie Parker unavailable until week 7 at the earliest Mewelde Moore will be the teams starter in Week 5 -Raven Rb Willis MaGahee suffered bruised ribs in their last game v. the Steelers and did not return to the game. While he will play this week he will be limited to about 20 carries for the game. Look for Le'Ron McClain to be involved in the running game. -Since missing a 37 yard field goal attempt in Week 1 Jaguar K Josh Scobee is a perfect 10 for 10 -Cardinal WR Larry Fitzgerald is 41 yards shy of 5000 yards receiving for his career.
