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…
D'Qwell Jackson, LB, Cleveland Browns
D'Qwell Jackson was limited in practice for the second straight day Thursday, according to the Browns' official website.
My Fantasy Read on Jackson: After last week’s 13 tackles, Jackson is probably following the same formula of taking it easy during the week and leaving it on the field on Sunday. Jackson leads the Browns with 52 tackles….
Shaun Rogers, DT, Cleveland Browns
Shaun Rogers did not practice Thursday, according to the Browns' official website.
My Fantasy Read on Rogers: The Brown’s nose tackles remains the big boy in the middle, but does only have one sack this season. His absences shouldn’t be a concern as Rogers followed a similar regiment last week and played on Sunday. Rogers is likely just resting up for the Steelers….
James Farrior, LB, Pittsburgh Steelers
James Farrior practiced Thursday, according to Scout.com. He has been dealing with an elbow ailment.
My Fantasy Read on Farrior: The Steeler’s stud linebacker is a bit off last season’s pace with just 28 tackles this season, but he’s a reliable start and is not likely to miss Sunday…..
Stephen Tulloch, LB, Tennessee Titans
Stephen Tulloch was limited in today's practice while dealing with a knee ailment, according to the Titans' official website.
My Fantasy Read on Tulloch: The Titan’s middle-backer has been solid this season and sounds like he could be questionable for Sunday, but if he plays he’s a must start against the Patriots….
Chris Harris, S, Carolina Panthers
Chris Harris noted that his ailing left knee held up fine in Week 5 against Washington, according to the Associated Press.
My Fantasy Read on Harris: The Panther’s 5th year safety was solid last week and looks like he’s ready to resume his hard-hitting role. He’s a good play this week against a struggling Tampa offense….
Keith Ellison, LB, Buffalo Bills
Keith Ellison was limited during today's practice, according to the Buffalo News. He is dealing with a sore knee.
My Fantasy Read on Ellison: The injury hardly sounds like anything to be overly concerned about. Ellison has been a bright spot on the defense this season and with the Jet’s running game next on the schedule he shine even more on Sunday….
Troy Polamalu, S, Pittsburgh Steelers
Troy Polamalu practiced for the second straight day Thursday, according to the Associated Press. He has been recovering from a sprained MCL.
My Fantasy Read on Polamalu: The Steeler’s playmaking safety looks on track to play Sunday. With the recent loss of Aaron Smith (placed on IR), Polamalu’s return could not come soon enough, get him in your lineups….
Ernie Sims, LB, Detroit Lions
Ernie Sims (shoulder) was limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday, according to the Detroit Free Press.
My Fantasy Read on Sims: The reports don’t sound good for Sims to play. He’s worth hanging onto if you’ve got the roster space, but it looks like you’ll need to keep him benched this Sunday….
Brian Cushing, LB, Houston Texans
Brian Cushing did not practice Thursday while nursing a sore foot, according to the Houston Chronicle.
My Fantasy Read on Cushing: The rookie linebacker has been solid thus far with 39 tackles this season. He’ll likely rest this week and go easy, but expect to see him on the field Sunday…..
Ty Warren, DE, New England Patriots
Ty Warren was limited in today's practice while still recovering from a calf ailment, according to the Boston Herald.
My Fantasy Read on Warren: The Pat’s defensive end has been less than spectacular this season, although he was decent last week. He has yet to blossom into any kind of IDP stud, at less than 100 percent he’s better off on your bench….
Vince Wilfork, DT, New England Patriots
Vince Wilfork was limited in Thursday's practice while nursing an ankle ailment, according to the Boston Globe.
My Fantasy Read on Wilfork: The Patriot’s nose tackle was limited last week as well, but was able to play against Denver. It’s safe to expect the same routine here, but Wilfork is not a big numbers guy and shouldn’t be played unless facing a heavy run team; the Titan’s have yet to be a heavy-run team this season….
