The Green Bay Packers released veteran receiver Koren Robinson on Friday. The receiver has battled off the field troubles throughout his career. Rotoworld reports he may be headed to Oakland to join Javon Walker and Ronald Curry. The Packers will start Donald Driver and Greg Jennings this season at wide receiver. However, the fantasy value of each is limited with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback.

The Indianapolis Colts brought back a familiar face on Wednesday, re-signing running back Dominic Rhodes to a one year contract. He will likely back up Joseph Addai, who remains the team's starting running back and a fantasy juggernaut. The future of Kenton Keith is now in question. Whoever lands the backup job in Indianapolis is someone to keep an eye out for in your fantasy draft due to the...

The lottery for Shaun Alexander continues on Wednesday, when the former MVP who was cut by the Seattle Seahawks heads to New Orleans to meet with the Saints, according to Rotoworld. He's already met with the Cincinnati Bengals and has also been linked to the Denver Broncos. Wherever he lands, temper your expectations for fantasy production.

According to a report published in the Chicago Tribune and Rotoworld, Chicago Bears running back Cedric Benson was arrested for boating while intoxicated and resisting arrest. He's had marijuana charges in the last. To top that off, Benson was completely ineffective as a starting running back last season, averaging 3.4 yards per carry and scoring just four times. His job could be threatened by...

The Baltimore Ravens starting quarterback for the 2008 season is up in the air, reports the Baltimore Sun. The three candidates are Kyle Boller, Troy Smith, and draft pick Joe Flacco. Boller is a perennial mediocre quarterback in both fantasy and reality. He's never tossed more than 13 touchdowns in a season and has a career touchdown to interception ratio of 1:1. Troy Smith had two touchdowns in...

Who Will Start for the Dolphins? Bill Parcells certainly has his hands full after taking over for a one-win Miami team. With the draft now a part of the past, the 'Phins grabbed themselves some help for the line, and perhaps a new quarterback in Chad Henne from Michigan. So who will be the starting quarterback for the Miami Dolphins? I see three options: 1) John Beck: The second round...

This was a pretty shocking news story that came out late Thursday night. Denver Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler has been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. PA Sports Ticker reports that he will be able to continue playing football in the NFL. The Vanderbilt product threw for 20 touchdowns last season. The news is something to keep an eye out for in dynasty leagues.

The Cincinnati Bengals are bringing in Shaun Alexander for a visit on Monday, reports the Bengals official website and Rotoworld. He'd join a crowded backfield that already includes starter Rudi Johnson and backup Kenny Watson. Johnson has struggled to stay healthy recently. Watson finished out the 2007 season with two touchdowns in two games as a starter. Alexander was cut by the Seahawks and...




The Seahawks Insider Blog and Rotoworld report that the Seahawks backfield will be a committee in 2008, citing Head Coach Mike Holmgren. The Seahawks picked up Julius Jones and T.J. Duckett in free agency and have Leonard Weaver and Maurice Morris on the roster as well. The team just cut former Pro Bowl running back Shaun Alexander.

According to a story published in the Dallas Morning News and Rotoworld, Terry Glenn has a 50% chance of starting in 2008. He played in one game last season after having 70 receptions and six touchdowns in 2006. Patrick Crayton would start opposite Terrell Owens if Glenn were unable to go.
