IDP News From Across the Wire…

David Harris, LB, New York Jets
David Harris fully practiced for the second straight day Thursday, according to NFL.com. He has been dealing with a wrist ailment.
My Fantasy Read on Harris: Harris is a solid IDP start with 57 tackles this season. There’s no indication that he’ll miss Sunday, better have him in the lineup….

Stephen Cooper, LB, San Diego Chargers
Stephen Cooper fully practiced Thursday, according to NFL.com. He has been dealing with a knee injury.
My Fantasy Read on Cooper: The Charger’s linebacker leads the team with 43 total tackles. He’s not expected to miss this Sunday and should be a solid play…..

Brian Cushing, LB, Houston Texans
Brian Cushing did not practice for the second straight day Thursday while dealing with a sore foot, according to NFL.com.

Mario Williams, DE, Houston Texans
Mario Williams was limited during Thursday's practice while nursing a shoulder ailment, according to NFL.com.
My Fantasy Read on Williams: The Texan’s defensive lineman is off to a slow start this season with only two sacks. He’s not playing like an every week starter, so consider better options if available…..

Antonio Cromartie, CB, San Diego Chargers
Antonio Cromartie injured his knee during practice, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.
My Fantasy Read on Cromartie: It sounds like the injury is not as serious as feared and Cromartie should play Sunday. Be careful considering this option, the Charger’s cornerback has not been the same playmaker of late…..

My Fantasy Read on Wimbley: The Browns outside linebacker is having a strong start to the 2009 season with four sacks this season. With 32 tackles he’s a strong play week in and week out….
