Wow.... So maybe Brian Westbrook signs with Denver?

I dont know.
VJax, TJ Housh, Golden Tate, Deion Branch

OR

VJax, Santana, Devin Thomas, Joey Galloway

I feel like Seahawks have a better WR group

Take V-Jax out of the equation. The Chargers reportedly aren't interested in trading him right now.

Galloway is old as dirt and Branch is a walking injury. Tate is a rookie while Thomas flashed potential last season. T.J. is coming off sports hernia surgery while Moss has looked great in camp. Factor in Cooley and Davis for the Redskins and Carlson in Seattle, I'm taking Moss.

I wonder how long Knowshon will be out for?

[ed.s52]

That would be great, both of the Eagle's Brians (Westbrook and Dawkins) reunited on the Broncos. I mean the Broncos would still be terrible, but it would be kinda cool

Probably a month, maybe more. Even when he returns though, his hamstring could bother him all year.

[Romo Ravens]

Yea it's not really something for fantasy players to be afraid of. He should come back in no time, unless of course it's torn. Wacko, are you liking Wes now?

[Romo Ravens]

It's really amazing though how many accidents have been happening in TC. Plus it's to players who are very valuable to their respective teams, not just players who will hardly see any playing time. Let's pray for a healthy month of practices/preseason for all our Ravens. I don't think I can take the heart ache and being made fun of by my friends because another stud on our team goes down lol

[Wacko4Zacko]

Yes Romo, I am glad that I am keeping Romo.

Don't tell me. I just heard last night that Moreno went down a few weeks with a Hammy. Hamstring injuries can linger for an entire season.

I'm hoping the Broncos don't rush him back to soon.

Yeah thats tough. If I were you I'd rather have Moreno miss a few games than come back too soon and underperform all year.

Well there is one thing that can keep my head up about Moreno.

Last year he missed training camp due to a sprained MCL and still rushed for 947 yards as a rookie.

impressive. Wow. Any knee injury is worse than hamstring. The mental aspect just kills the runner normally. So your right, that is a positive sign

That's part of the reason why I thought everybody is sleeping on Moreno. He was going into the season healthy with a full training camp under his belt.

But that isn't the case anymore.

Still could be effective. Injuries are going to happen. Better now than later

[Romo Ravens]

I likes Moreno this year. He was a third to mid third round prospect who I was keeping my eyes on in both leagues. Unfortunately, Pu got him a pick before me, and I chose Jamaal over him in my other league, but I still think he has a good future ahead of him.

Is anyone getting the itch for the season, heck even the preseason to start? The anticipation kills me especially with my fantasy players just sitting there lol

The "itch" is killing me. I can't wait till Sunday when I can get a look at Austin, Jones and Choice.

Yeah, I hate just seeing my fantasty teams sitting there... waiting patiently for the season to start.

Yeah this sucks. I mean at least training camp is here. And preseason is only a week or two away and thats always fun to watch the young potiential on the field.

[Romo Ravens]

I'm honestly pumped for the preseason game against the Panthers. I don't live in Baltimore, so obviously it's hard to go to TC. I can't wait for some Flacco passes to Q on some short slants. I wonder if Harbs will utilize Q as much since it's just the preseason?

We also have to watch out for injuries, not just with the Ravens, but with players we drafted. That's why I don't really like to draft in late July, but I couldn't take the anticipation this year lol.

yeah me too, I like doing Fantasy Drafts like this, do a few early and have the thrill to see if your players make it through pre-season and I do other drafts closer to the season knowing who's injured and things like that.

Well I see things have finally calmed down in Romo's league, haven't seen any trades pending or nothing, I guess we are just going to sit on our rosters and wait for the season to happen.

[Wacko4Zacko]

Whoever drafted Favre better have a good backup. Take this for what its worth. I doubt it is permanent, but if it is...He had a good career.

I actually believe him this time. He retired earlier in the other offseason and came back. Now he's retiring late in the off season.

[FlaccoFlicker]

ugh well I guess I get Mcnabb or Henne as my qb this year

I'll trade you Rodgers for a decent running back.

No I think this is permanent. He is 40 years old with injuries to recover from. He doesn't have anything left in the tank. Big blow to the team, to fantasy owners. This is a big change for the whole NFL.

Same he'll turn 41 during the season....and the thoughts of him getting hit by 27 year old linebackers is leaving him with bad thoughts.

Now that this report has come out. I think this is the end for Brett Favre.

[FlaccoFlicker]

lol maybe I should pick up TJ then
