Fantasy Notes:

CRABTREE WILL BE AVAILABLE

The Niners have too many woes under center to consider any of their receivers this early in the fantasy season, add to it that wide receiver Michael Crabtree (foot) has seen little action this preseason and he becomes less of a consideration. Sit the former Red-Raider until we see more from the quarterback position and more from Crabtree himself.

CASSEL PRACTICES FULLY
The Chiefs quarterback is battling a rib injury, but after practicing in full on Friday, there’s no question that he will play on Sunday. This is a start owners will want to steer clear of, Cassel is not likely to drop back too many times; one, to protect the rib and two, because against the Bills (ranked last against the run in 2010) expect a heavy dose of Jamaal Charles.

ALL SIGNS POINTING TO FOSTER SITTING
The Texan’s running back Arian Foster (hamstring) has not been ruled for Sunday, but with his “questionable” listing and reports out of Houston suggesting he may not suit up, this looks like a situation owners may want to avoid. With those tricky hamstring injuries all bets are off, expect Foster to sit unless by some kind of grace his health improves dramatically.

MANNING OUT FOR “SOME-TIME”
Colts quarterback Peyton Manning underwent another procedure on his neck and now there are reports indicating he’s going to be out for a while (maybe the season). This is nothing new if you have been following the situation in Indianapolis, and if you took quarterback Kerry Collins as insurance it’s much too soon to try and cash that policy. This is one you’re going to have to sit on for a couple of weeks to see how Collins performs.
