FSH: IDP NOTES

July 14th, 2009 11:30pm PST

IDP Notes:

The strong never sleep, so for those that can keep up with the “what is happening” around the league, here’s more football for all of the IDP Nation….

DL TERRELL SUGGS SIGNs LONG TERM DEAL
My Fantasy Read:
The Raven’s locked up one of the leagues best defensive playmakers on Wednesday when they signed Terrell Suggs to a long-term (six-year) deal. Suggs was solid in 2008 with more than 50 solo tackles and eight sacks, to go with two interceptions. His nine passes-defensed also showed his versatility as a three down defensive player. As long as he is a Raven he’ll remain a fantasy favorite and 2009 should be another solid season for IDP owners.

CB DARIUS BUTLER SIGNS WITH PATRIOTS
My Fantasy Read:
The 2nd round rookie signed a four-year deal with the team and will join a busy secondary with the likes of Shawn Springs and Leigh Bodden. Butler has been impressive throughout the mini-camps, but will need to make noise this summer to be a factor on the field and in fantasy this season. He might need a little seasoning for most IDP leagues.

DL KEVIN WILLIAMS FATE STILL IN LIMBO
My Fantasy Read:
The Vikings immovable mountain in the middle is still awaiting a conclusion to his four-game suspension case. Currently his hearing has been delayed until July 22nd. He along with teammate Pat Williams will have to wait until then to learn their fate, if a decision is reached. A big turning point to this whole situation could be the involvement of other major sports weighing in on the behalf of the NFL. Right now it’s not looking too good for the William’s boys to avoid the four game penalty, something fantasy owners will have to consider in the many upcoming fantasy drafts.
