DAL - ESPN Reporter Adam Schefter Would Be 'Hesitant' Drafting Ezekiel Elliott

Source: Sirius XM - Adam Caplan & John Hansen / Philly Voice - Jimmy Kempski

Philly Voice reported an appearance by ESPN's Adam Schefter on Sirius XM Radio with Adam Caplan and John Hansen. Schefter was asked about the domestic abuse case allegedly involving Elliott that the NFL has been investigating for almost a year.

Schefter said, "I would just say this. It is definitely a factor, and if I were drafting today, I would be hesitant to (draft him). But this is a situation that has gone back and forth so many times. I've spoken to some people within the league who, during the course of the offseason, got a sense that some form of discipline could happen.

"And then I spoke to somebody last week and they're like, 'Yeah, I don't think anything is going to happen here.' And then a decision that many people thought would come before the start of the the July 4th weekend on Friday when the NFL usually makes a lot of decisions, hands down some news, I was told that was being pushed back.

"Now why is that being pushed back? Was it being pushed back, actually? Maybe it wasn't even. But I was told there wasn't going to be an answer here for a little while, that there was more information. There have been more meetings between either Zeke's people and the league, or the NFLPA and the league, or whoever. It's just been an ongoing issue that has had no conclusion. And so, if you're drafting today, it's hard to say, 'Well, nothing's going to happen there.'

"Nothing may well happen there, but something could happen there. We just don't know right now. It's just sort of out there."

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Yes, it's a Philadelphia site that loves anything negative regarding the Cowboys. But that's not relevant. What's important is Adam Schefter's take. Schefter is absolutely unbiased and one of the most reputable sources in the league. When he says he's hesitant, one would be wise to listen. We've all seen great players like Le'Veon Bell and Tom Brady miss time and return with great success. But missing games is not insignificant. Stay tuned.

PIT - WR Antonio Brown on hot streak

Source: USA TODAY Fantasy Sports

Pittsburgh Steelers WR Antonio Brown is the third wide receiver in NFL history to amass at least 400 catches, 5,000 yards and 40 touchdowns in years four through seven of a professional career. Former WRs Herman Moore and Marvin Harrison are the other two receivers to accomplish the feat.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

And it's pretty clear Brown is better than ether receiver, so the sky is the limit for him. Even though his yardage was 'down' - for him - last season, he remains one of the most potent receivers in the NFL. With Ben Roethlisberger back to 100 percent, Brown should be back up above 1,500 yards while keeping the double digit touchdown totals we see from him every year. You'll need to pay a premium to get him though as he's going as the first receiver off the board in early drafts and the price won't go down any time soon.

NE - RB Mike Gillislee in prominent running role?

Source: ESPNBoston.com - Mike Reiss
New England Patriots RB Mike Gillislee is the most likely back to fill the void left by RB LeGarrette Blount's departure, in the opinion of beat writer Mike Reiss.
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
He still has a lot of competition in a backfield which has never been known for consistency in distribution of carries. He is a bit more versatile than Blount was but is two inches shorter and 33 pounds lighter. He isn't quite the aggressive runner Blount is either. That said, he'll get a lot of carries on early downs. That may not be as good a thing as we think it will be. Gillislee had a 5.7 yards per carry in 2016, but that was on 101 runs. Blount carried the ball 299 times. Can Gillislee carry that big a load? Keep that in mind when looking at his current ADP of 79 overall and ranking as 28th back coming off the board.

Thursday Update

NFL - RB DeAngelo Williams still wants to play

Source: ESPN - Adam Schefter

Free-agent RB DeAngelo Williams (Steelers) said he's waiting on a phone call from an interested team to continue his playing career.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Once someone gets hurt, he may hear his phone ring, but unless he drops into a perfect situation - which he had to an extent from a fantasy standpoint when he backed up a suspended Le'Veon Bell - his fantasy value will be a bit shaky. Age and ability are also a concern.

PIT - JuJu Smith-Schuster wants chemistry with QB

Source: Pittsburgh Tribune-Review - Joe Rutter

Pittsburgh Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster said he is looking forward to building better chemistry with QB Ben Roethlisberger during training camp. He did receive some work with the first-team offense as a slot receiver during offseason workouts.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

If he and Roethlisberger can get on the same page, we could see a lot of red zone work for Smith-Schuster. The Steelers still have Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell for red zone work, but could use another weapon now that Heath Miller is finally gone. Tight end Jesse James might emerge as another weapon, but Smith-Schuster is big, athletic and aggressive. We'll watch camp closely, as the former USC Trojan is currently holding a bargain basement ADP of 258 overall and 76 among wide receivers. He could have some decent value at a nice price if he can develop chemistry with his quarterback.

TEN - Taywan Taylor shining

Tennessee Titans WR Taywan Taylor looks like a perfect fit for the slot receiver, according to beat writer Jim Wyatt. Taylor has already gained the trust of the quarterbacks.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

He could run into some issues with all the potential talent suddenly at the Tennessee wideout position. With Corey Davis and now Eric Decker, Taylor may struggle to see targets. However if he can continue to show the quarterbacks can rely on him, we might see him emerge later in the season.

TEN - Corey Davis explosive

Tennessee Titans WR Corey Davis has looked explosive with strong hands, according to beat writer Jim Wyatt.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

That's good to hear about a guy who had ankle surgery to repair tendons in the offseason. When healthy he has very good route skills and physicality, as well as a high football IQ and work ethic. His ADP is currently sitting at 96 overall in early drafts and could climb as we hit training camp.

WAS - Samaje Perine may be limited early

Source: CSN Mid-Atlantic - Rich Tandler

Washington Redskins RB Samaje Perine could receive limited touches during the early portion of the season but has the chance to lead the team in carries during some games in November and December, in the opinion of CSN Mid-Atlantic's Rich Tandler.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

He's going to have to carve out carries from the load Rob Kelley and Chris Thompson get. Kelley is the one we favor, though we still don't love him as more than an occasional start or bench depth. His ADP is currently 102, the 37th back off the board, while Chris Thompson, who serves as more of a third down back, is the 197th player overall in ADP, and the No. 63 running back off the board.

NFL - WR Dorial Green-Beckham unclaimed

Free-agent WR Dorial Green-Beckham (Eagles) cleared waivers and is now an unrestricted free agent, according to a source.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
Green-Beckham has the skill but has not been able to put the rest of it together. Even if someone gives him another chance, he probably won't walk into a situation where he is able to contribute right away. Now that he has busted out in OTAs with what is being reported as a lazy and near-effortless performance. We think it's safe to write him off as a bust.

WAS - Two RBs may be on bubble

Washington RBs Mack Brown and Keith Marshall may be on the roster bubble during training camp, in the opinion of CSN Mid-Atlantic's Rich Tandler. Brown could make the roster as the No. 4 running back if Washington decides to keep three tight ends.
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

With rookie Samaje Perine along with Rob Kelley, Chris Thompson and even Matt Jones, there's very little room left for either Brown or Marshall. Even if one of them sneaks on the roster, he won't have fantasy value.

Friday Update

TB - WR Mike Evans not expected to have big spike

Source: Florida Football Insiders - Roy Cummings

Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans isn't expected to make a big jump in numbers with the addition of WR DeSean Jackson. 'I'm not sure (how much better he can get) from a numbers standpoint, but Mike's confidence is at an all-time high right now,'' head coach Dirk Koetter said. 'And I think with Mike, like with a lot of our guys, the main goal is to win, not create stats. The goal is to win games.''

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]
Even if he doesn't 'get better' he's still one of the best NFL receivers out there right now. We also wonder how much DeSean Jackson really has in the tank. At this point in his career, Jackson is a strict one trick pony - fast and straight - and it's not a trick which should limit Evans much. Evans will continue to be a guy going in the first round of most fantasy leagues as he is in early drafts right now. We expect good production even if it's not a huge leap over last year.

PIT - RB DeAngelo Williams open to PIT return

Source: ESPN.com - Jeremy Fowler

Free-agent RB DeAngelo Williams (Steelers) said he is open to re-signing with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Williams will happily go where he gets an offer, maybe even back for another pro wrestling engagement in the squared circle (where he was excellent, by the way). When not wrestling, Williams still looks like a guy who has a little left in the tank. However, whether with the Steelers or elsewhere, his fantasy impact will probably be low. He's a backup, and that means more than anything his value would be as a handcuff.

DET - TE Darren Fells could be used more

Source: DetroitLions.com - Tim Twentyman

Detroit Lions TE Darren Fells could be utilized more in two tight-end sets and see his targets increase in 2017. Fells could be utilized as a blocker more after the injury to OT Taylor Decker (shoulder) as well.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Not only will he see more time as a blocker, he'll still be behind Eric Ebron as the chief tight end receiving option. So we aren't expecting much from him in terms of fantasy point production. The Lions selected another tight end during the 2017 NFL Draft, a beast by the name of Mike Roberts. Roberts was a machine in the end zone during college, but we don't expect a ton from a rookie tight end. Ebron is still your choice, and he's a potential top ten tight end who is going off the board as the 14th tight end in early drafts.

TEN - WR Tajae Sharpe to be ready for training camp

Tennessee Titans WR Tajae Sharpe (foot) should be ready for training camp, according to head coach Mike Mularkey.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Sharpe was a starter during a portion of last season, but the Titans have a lot of other options so nothing is guaranteed. As anyone in the NFL can tell you the most important ability is availability, so he cannot afford to miss camp. Even if he makes the roster, we're not excited by his prospects. With rookies Corey Davis and Taywan Taylor, newly arrived veteran Eric Decker as well as Rishard Matthews, there are just too many bodies to climb over.

BAL - WR Jeremy Maclin the go-to option?

Baltimore Ravens WR Jeremy Maclin has averaged 67 catches, 913 receiving yards and six touchdowns over his seven NFL seasons, and since 2010, only one Baltimore receiver has reached all those marks in a single season.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Maclin could lead the team in targets, but the values of he, Mike Wallace, and Breshad Perriman are similar in drafts. Maclin has the highest floor, Perriman has the highest ceiling, and Wallace has the best track record with Joe Flacco. At least one should outperform ADP in the high volume pass offense.

Carolina Panthers RB Jonathan Stewart's role will remain unchanged according to head coach Ron Rivera and running backs coach Jim Skipper.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Stewart was able to turn his typical workload into a boom/bust weekly profile last year, with some RB1 weeks and some on the fringe of flex range. Christian McCaffery may not cut into Stewart's workload in games that the Panthers control, but Stewart is still more likely to be marginalized in high-scoring games or games where the Panthers are playing from behind.

New York Giants WR Brandon Marshall has regularly used FaceTime to review plays and signals with QB Eli Manning in the six weeks players have off between minicamp and the start of training camp on July 27.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Fantasy football players used to avoid receivers in the first year on their new team because of chemistry issues among other things, but smart quarterbacks and wideouts have devised ways to speed up the acclimation process. Marshall could be a huge value at his current price if he approaches his production with Jets when he had a competent quarterback.

Free-agent TE Gary Barnidge (Browns) said the Baltimore Ravens haven't called him yet.

The Ravens have lost Dennis Pitta to injury and Darren Waller to suspension. Ben Watson is coming back from an achilles tear, Crockett Gillmore is coming back from two surgeries and Maxx Williams is recovering from a rare knee surgery. The team needs help at tight end, but it doesn't seem like Barnidge is in their plans. They could change those plans when they get a better idea of where their remaining tight ends are at.

Oakland Raiders RB DeAndre Washington said he is a lot more comfortable than he was this time last year, and he is hoping to take the next step and be more consistent.

Washington had the better draft pedigree, but didn't really come on until the end of the season. He would be in a committee with Jalen Richard if Marshawn Lynch falters, but just as he did last year, Washington can still get 5-8 touches a game if Lynch holds down the starting job.

Los Angeles Chargers WR Tyrell Williams was one of eight wide receivers in the NFL last year with at least 19 catches of 20 yards or more. The other seven were New York Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr., Atlanta Falcons WR Julio Jones, Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson, Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR DeSean Jackson, Pittsburgh Steelers WR Antonio Brown, Oakland Raiders WR Amari Cooper and Indianapolis Colts WR T.Y. Hilton.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Williams was playing through a shoulder injury for the last third of the season, too. The return of Keenan Allen should cut into his opportunity, but fantasy drafters have overreacted to this additional factor, often allowing Williams to fall into the double digits.

Cincinnati Bengals WR Brandon LaFell likely will make the 53-man roster this season because it would leave at least $3 million of dead money on the salary cap if he was released, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Katherine Terrell. The Bengals also like that LaFell has a mentor-like relationship with WR A.J. Green.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

LaFell was surprisingly productive both with and without Green in the lineup last year, but he is likely taking a back seat to first-round pick John Ross sooner than later. He'll be on our waiver wire watch list, especially if Ross is slow to get up to speed after offseason shoulder surgery.

Baltimore Ravens RB Terrance West is projected to be the starter in Week 1, according to Ryan Mink of BaltimoreRavens.com, with RB Danny Woodhead seeing some carries but being used mainly in the passing game.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

West has RB2 value for the first four weeks while Kenneth Dixon is suspended, but after Dixon returns this will turn into an ugly three-way committee. The Ravens backfield didn't support one consistent fantasy starter as a two-way committee last year, so the outlook isn't great for any of these backs. Woodhead in PPR leagues is best commodity because of the high target volume to running backs in this offense.

Hopkins is going to be one of the highest paid receivers in NFL history once he gets his contract, but the Texans could also choose to franchise him to see if he produces like a #1 if he has a 2017 similar to his disappointing 2016. They need better quarterback play to properly evaluate his value.
