The Facts:
Rookie Michael Clayton's chances of playing early could be enhanced by McCardell's demand for a new contract. According to head coach John Gruden, "We're going to work July 30. That's a mandatory reporting date. ... Whoever's there, we'll welcome with open arms. And if you're not there, then you're not there."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
While Clayton clearly impressed coaches by picking up the offense quickly in recent workouts, McCardell was a top-10 Fantasy receiver last season. As long as he shows up sometime before kickoff on Sept. 12, we still like the veteran's chances this year.
