The Facts:
When asked about NFL Films Greg Cosell's thoughts that he and members of the organization have concerns about Dalton's arm strength, Dalton said that he had heard about them and that everyone is entitled to their views. "I'm comfortable with it. Everyone knows what they are going to get out of me," he said. "I don't think it held us back last year and I don't think it is going to hold me back in my career."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Dalton continued: "Arm strength is one thing, there's a lot to throwing. It's timing, consistency and making sure everyone is on the same page. I'm going to keep working but I don't think arm strength is an issue. ..." According to Enquirer staffer Joe Reedy, OC Jay Gruden is comfortable with Andy Dalton's arm strength. ... Worth noting: Dalton hit the weight room hard this offseason and the Geoff Hobson of the team's official web site recently reported that Dalton's passes appeared to have more zip in recent workouts. Bottom line? Cosell's report doesn't do much to diminish Dalton in the eye's of Fantasy owners. He remains a very viable Fantasy QB2.
