Redskins | Have crowded backfield The Washington Redskins have seven running backs on the roster right now, with only RB Alfred Morris guaranteed of a job in Washington this season. Based on the current roster, it appears RB Evan Royster will be battling Jawan Jamison, and RB Roy Helu Jr. will be battling Chris Thompson for the two running back spots behind Morris. Comment |

Browns | Like speed of Dion Lewis The Cleveland Browns like the speed of RB Dion Lewis, especially as a third-down back. Lewis might also be in the mix to return kicks. FANTASY TIP: As far as fantasy value, Lewis has very little considering he is behind Trent Richardson, Montario Hardesty and Chris Ogbonnaya on the depth chart. If injuries or a trade changes that picture, and Lewis scoots up the chart, he might be worth a look in fantasy football. Comment |

Bills | Robert Woods agrees to terms The Buffalo Bills reached a four-year deal with WR Robert Woods Sunday, May 19. Woods was in California for the NFLPA's rookie premiere this weekend, and is expected to sign the contract with Buffalo in the next few days. FANTASY TIP: Woods is projected to be the No. 2 wide receiver opposite Stevie Johnson. As such, Woods will be worth a look in the middle to late rounds in re-draft leagues, and a bit higher in long-term keeper formats. Comment |

Cardinals | Coach high on Carson Palmer Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians said he likes the deep pass QB Carson Palmer will be able to bring to the team. "He's tough as nails. As good a deep-ball thrower as I've ever seen. I mean really accurate on the deep ball. He still has it.
