Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As PFT editor Mike Florio suggests, in Atlanta, Leftwich could find himself playing sooner rather than later. Joey Harrington and the offense haven't performed as expected and HC Bobby Petrino suggested Monday that Harrington wasn't getting rid of the ball fast enough. ... Given the team's struggles, Florio believes the Falcons will want to figure out whether Leftwich can be the guy before the team positions itself to land Brian Brohm of Louisville, who was mentored until last season by Petrino. That said, don't look for Leftwich to move ahead of Harrington any time soon. It will be a process.
