The Jets reportedly believe Chris Ivory can be a "top-ten back" if he stays healthy.
Health is the rub, as Ivory has been prone to injury since his college days, at least partially due to his fearless, ferocious running style. While not a good bet to last 16 games, Ivory will offer quality RB2 value whenever he dresses this season behind an underrated Jets offensive line. Ivory's current ADP falls in the late-fourth round, behind David Wilson, Montee Ball, and Le'Veon Bell.

Coach Joe Philbin praised Lamar Miller for being "very fundamentally sound" as the Dolphins began training camp.
One trait we noticed on Miller's rookie-year game tape was composed play, consistently running within the design of the offense. The same couldn't be said for David Wilson and Bryce Brown. "I think his knowledge of the system has definitely increased," Philbin said of Miller. "He appears to be a lot more comfortable with what he’s doing. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of indecision in his play." Miller is a prime 2013 fantasy football breakout candidate.


quote:

Trent Richardson (shin) was a full participant for the start of Browns training camp.
It's great news for a player whose injury concerns have been overblown. "Richardson has been full-go," coach Rob Chudzinski said. "He’s been practicing these last few days and looks good."


50+ catches

Ravens placed WR Jacoby Jones on the active/NFI list.
The reasons for Jones' placement on the non-football injury list are unclear. Jones could be nursing a yet-to-be-disclosed injury, or he simply could have failed his pre-training camp conditioning test. Jones is penciled in incredibly lightly as the Ravens' No. 2 wide receiver. We suspect GM Ozzie Newsome will ultimately go get someone else before the season begins.

OC Norv Turner reiterated that Jordan Cameron is getting the opportunity to be "the guy" at tight end.
The Browns have shown nothing but faith in the highly athletic Cameron for months now. They let Ben Watson walk in free agency, replacing him with backup-types in Kellen Davis and Gary Barnidge. They didn't use a single draft pick on a tight end. Cameron enters camp as the unquestioned starter and featured player in one of the game's most tight end friendly schemes. He remains one of our favorite sleepers.



82 catches to the TE last year Watson & Alex Smith gone (62 catches)....but now more TE friendly

Jay Novacek, Antonio Gates

Harvin is reportedly battling a possible slight tear in the labrum of his hip, and he'll get a second opinion early next week. The injury is suddenly a fairly large fantasy concern


great, I love when hype fades before draft....should slip and be a value pick

Ryan Mathews said he believes he can be a "top-five back."
Mathews has been a major disappointment since the Chargers traded up to draft him with the 12th overall pick and was limited to 12 games last season due to a broken collarbone. He's entering a make-or-break year in 2013. "I think I can be up with the best of them," Mathews said. "I just have to be consistent. That's the main thing, to be consistent with my play."

Maclin was carted off the practice field with a potentially serious right leg injury Saturday.
Maclin was "writhing in pain" on the field, trainers were looking at his "lower right leg or ankle," and both coach Chip Kelly and GM Howie Roseman ran over to survey the scene. The fifth-year receiver was unable to put any weight on his leg before being shuttled off on a cart with a towel draped over his face

none....
Ridley=BGE
Vareen=woodhead
leon washington=Kevin Faulk
Blount=Sammy Morris

Ridley already had the best year of his career.
Vareen is capped.

no reason to draft either

Any clue as to what the injury was? I can't find anything.

By Aaron Wilson The Baltimore Sun
4:15 p.m. EDT, July 27, 2013
Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta was carted off the field by trainers today during the third full-team practice of training camp.
During the first fully-padded practice of camp, Pitta was in a collision with strong safety James Ihedigbo. It was during a pass pattern to the back of the end zone.
Although there was no immediate status update on the nature of Pitta's injury, it was serious enough that he had to be helped off the field. As he was carted off the field, Pitta had a towel draped over his face.
We will update when we have more information.

He's either dead or sitting upright, which implies a leg injury.

I'm starting to think my keeper league team has a hex going on.

Keeping Marshawn Lynch, Percy goes down.
Keeping Torrey Smith, Pitta goes down.

Keeping Alfred Morris, expect significant Washington injury.

Keeping Jimmy Graham, but I'm giving the Saints a pass.

so no boldin, no Pitta
126 catches and 206 targets vacuum

torrey Smith has a horrible completion percentage

49 catches 110 targets(44%)
Jacoby, always an under achiever

Ed Dickson did catch 54 in 2011 before Pitta took over for him

Ed Dickson>Gronkowski/Graham elite TE1 or is Ray Rice looking at a 90 catch season?

Only lose 13th round pick; he'll be my WR3, at worst.

Shiancoe visited Friday; they'll sign him with the quickness. I think we're going to see Torrey running a lot of Anquan's routes.
