[My Take]
More football news and happenings from around the league; here’s the latest I am hearing, reading, and following with my take on things and how they will impact the coming fantasy season……
News From Across the Wire...
Michael Crabtree, WR, San Francisco 49ers
The 49ers could be caving to holdout draft pick Michael Crabtree and making him an improved offer, according to CBS Sports.
My Fantasy read on Crabtree: This recent report would indicate the team is reaching out, but with every success they have on the field without the kid, this can’t bode well for his contract dollars. It doesn’t sound like anything is imminent, so don’t expect to see Crabtree signed anytime soon….
LaDainian Tomlinson, RB, San Diego Chargers
LaDainian Tomlinson is already being listed as a game-time decision for this Sunday with a sprained ankle, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.
My Fantasy read on Tomlinson: The Charger’s won’t lose much with LT out and Sproles in the lineup. LT did not look particularly sharp Monday night and this injury now appears to be more of a setback than first thought. With the Ravens on the slate, a less than 100 percent LT might not be a smart play for week two…..
Dallas Clark, TE, Indianapolis Colts
The Indianapolis Star reports that with wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez out several weeks with injury, Dallas Clark will play an ever larger role in the Colts' passing attack.
My Fantasy read on Clark: With Gonzalez going down for a while, expect not only Clark to see more looks in the passing game, but also Reggie Wayne to continue his strong play……
Nate Washington, WR, Tennessee Titans
After being extremely limited by a hamstring injury in the team's Week 1 contest against the Steelers last Thursday, Nate Washington should "(play) the number of plays a starter would play" in the team's game against the Texans this weekend, according to the Nashville Tennessean.
My Fantasy read on Washington: This is great news for fantasy owners. With the Texan’s coming to town after being lit up for over 270-yards passing by a rookie quarterback, Washington and the Titans should be primed for a big afternoon…..
Felix Jones, RB, Dallas Cowboys
Felix Jones will be limited in practice this week as he deals with a bruised quad, according to the Dallas Morning News.
My Fantasy read on Jones: With Jones dinged, if he’s not able to go expect to see Barber anchor the load on the ground with Tashard Choice picking up more of the duties in the passing game…..
Reggie Bush, RB, New Orleans Saints
Even with Mike Bell and Pierre Thomas both expected to see a good amount of carries in Week 2, Reggie Bush is not likely to see his amount of touches decrease, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
My Fantasy read on Bush: The Saints multipurpose back was relatively quiet with seven carries for 14 yards on Sunday. With two capable runners in the backfield in Bell and Thomas, expect to see Bush’s duties relegated mostly to the passing game and special teams…..
