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 just for all of the IDP Nation….
IDP News From Across the Wire…..
Kelvin Hayden, CB, Indianapolis Colts
Kelvin Hayden is hopeful that his hamstring injury will heal in time for him to play in Week 1 against the Jaguars, according to the Indianapolis Star. He said, "I am very confident I will be ready on Week 1. Since the injury occurred, I feel like I am making progress every day."
My Fantasy Read on Hayden: Hayden sounds like a good shot to play week 1. The Colts corner is solid and a big IDP fantasy option when healthy. He’s a good mid-round pick in fantasy drafts……
Rey Maualuga, LB, Cincinnati Bengals
Rookie Rey Maualuga is expected to be the Bengals' starting strong-side linebacker in Week 1, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
My Fantasy Read on Maualuga: The Bengal’s rookie linebacker figures to be a busy IDP option. At strong-side Maualuga should be a decent play, but best drafted as a back-up in fantasy leagues……
Chris McAlister, CB, Baltimore Ravens
The Bears have inquired about former Ravens' cornerback Chris McAlister, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
My Fantasy Read on McAlister: The Bears are in need of lots of help in the secondary, but McAlister hardly looks like a permanent fix. He has no fantasy value at this time…..
B.J. Raji, DT, Green Bay Packers
Rookie defensive tackle B.J. Raji left the Packers' final preseason game on Thursday with an apparent leg/ankle injury, according to the Twitter page of beat writer Tom Pelissero.
My Fantasy Read on Raji: Raji should do well in the middle, but will likely fill the role of being more of a clogger and gap filler against more accomplished O-lineman. He could be a productive fantasy DL, but owners will want to play it safe and draft him much later……..
Antonio Pierce, LB, New York Giants
The Newark Star-Ledger reports that linebacker Antonio Pierce will play in Thursday's preseason game against the Patriots. He has missed practice time recently and the team's last two games with a sore foot.
My Fantasy Read on Pierce: The Giants linebacker is a solid IDP option coming off 95 tackles in 2008. He’s a mid-rounder in drafts and is expected to be ready for week 1……
Zach Diles, LB, Houston Texans
Zach Diles will be the Texans' starting weak-side linebacker this season, according to the National Football Post.
My Fantasy Read on Diles: The Texan’s linebacker is destined to have a great campaign in 2009. In eight starts a year ago he finished with 66 tackles. Expect big numbers this season and take him early in fantasy drafts…….
Leonard Little, DE, St. Louis Rams
Leonard Little "probably" will not play in the Rams' preseason finale on Thursday as he deals with an aching knee, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
My Fantasy Read on Little: The Ram’s veteran defensive end is not the player he once was. Last season Little started just five games, finished the year with only 18 tackles and missed two games. Even though he did manage six sacks along the way, his value will be limited and he’s only worth a late draft pick in fantasy leagues…….
