FSH: IDP NOTES

June 3rd, 2009 11:30pm PST

IDP Notes:

There’s more going on these days than just the “o.” With more news, notes, and updates to digest, here are more of my IDP takes for this week….

LB ANGELO CROWELL LIMITED DURING BUCS OTAs
My Fantasy Read:
The Buc’s newest member of their linebacking corp is still recovering from knee surgery and is being limited during the team’s OTAs. Crowell was the Bill’s leading tackler in 2007 and after missing the entire 2008 season due to injury, he should be back in 2009 ready to gobble up tacklers. In a new system, he’s not likely to achieve the same type of success right away, but he should be an IDP draft consideration in most leagues.

DB ADRIAN WILSON RE-SIGNS WITH CARDINALS
My Fantasy Read:
The Cardinals finally made the commitment that was long coming signing Wilson to a new five year deal. Wilson is one of the defenses emotional leaders and his presence will help bring stability to the secondary. The Cardinals safety has been a steady play in recent years, with the exception of his injury shortened 2007 season. With a new deal and a new focus, he’ll be a reliable play for IDP owners in most formats.

DB ANTOINE WINFIELD INTENDS TO SKIP OTAs
My Fantasy Read:
One of the Viking’s more talented playmakers in the secondary continues to sit out while negotiations stall. Winfield has been a consistent ball-hawk in the secondary making big plays and being one of the more aggressive tackling corners. In three of his last four seasons Winfield has recorded more that 90 tackles. Once a deal gets done and he’s back on the field, he’ll be a top DB selected in IDP drafts.

DB TYE HILL SEEING A LOT OF ACTION AS STARTING CORNER
My Fantasy Read:
The Rams fourth year corner is seeing a lot of time at one of the starting corner positions during the team’s OTAs. Hill has only started 21 games in three seasons, so he’s not quite proven. He could be getting an extended look and opportunity as a result of lack of options, but nonetheless Hill appears to be a front-runner. The Rams defense struggled last season, as a result if Hill starts he could be a busy DB in fantasy in 2009; something to watch.
