Damien harris gets a massive bump w/ this news IMO. If I were drafting tomorrow I'd be looking his way around the 4/5 round

Both RBs get a bump, James White gets a lot more value here too

Go scoop up JJ Taylor if you’re in a dynasty league as well if he’s available. He’s the heir apparent to the James White role

Saints’ WR Michael Thomas, who underwent off-season foot surgery, is expected to land on PUP, which will sideline him the first six weeks, per sources. Being that the Saints have an early bye, placing Thomas on PUP would sideline him for at least the first five games.

Ravens OC Greg Roman expresses confidence in Gus Edwards, saying “he’s our type of guy.”

But Roman pointed out Baltimore’s approach is running back by committee.

The #Vikings have solved their TE issue, as they are trading for promising #Jets TE Chris Herndon in exchange for draft pick compensation, sources say. Agent @malkikawa later confirmed the deal. Herndon steps right in following Irv Smith’s knee injury.

This is interesting.

Oh, damn.. this could be solid. Herndon has the talent, he's produced before. I might have to try and make room to backup Higbee

There will be no decision on Saquon Barkley for the opener until next week. Few more key practices he needs to get through.

Still uncertainty with Evan Engram (calf) for Week 1, per Joe Judge. There is some “gray area” on this one and they’ll see how he does this week.

Lions cut Bullock and Zane Gonzales. Guess you don't need a kicker if you're not going to score.

The plot thickens for Rams backfield: Xavier Jones to IR. Achilles tendon injury.

John brown wants off the raiders. This has to speak to Ruggs and Bryan edwards right? I drafted Edwards instead of a kicker

@TomPelissero
#Raiders WR John Brown requested his release and the team granted it, per source. "Smoke" is back on the market.

TY Hilton will go on IR. "Surgery went well."


If either Pittman or Campbell has NFL talent they should have a good season

Hines could feast as well, especially if they start young QBs who end up checking the ball down constantly

Ron Rivera said Curtis Samuel will begin practicing Monday. "We're feeling really confident and he's had some really good days out there on the side."

quote:

TE Evan Engram (calf) isn’t practicing today, but RB Saquon Barkley, WR Kenny Golladay, WR Kadarius Toney and TE Kyle Rudolph are all out there for the start.

quote:

The New York Giants have been cautious with running back Saquon Barkley as he recovers from his torn right ACL, but he is reportedly "trending in the right direction and has a strong chance to play Week 1," according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

The team won't determine his status until next week.

Saquon Barkley is gearing up to play Sunday vs. the #Broncos, and sources say he’s close to being fully cleared to do so following major knee surgery. The team needs to watch him through Thursday to gauge how his body responds to the workload. But he’s close.
