Broncos | Ronnie Hillman had hard time keeping on weight
Fri, 24 May 2013 09:28:12 -0700

Denver Broncos RB Ronnie Hillman said that last season he dropped to around 180 pounds, while team officials say it was closer to 175. He had weighed 200 pounds at last February's Scouting Combine, but early-season injuries probably played a role in his slow start to last season.

Denver will monitor Hillman's weight this summer, and the back hopes to play 2013 at 195 pounds, which is what he has weighed in as during OTAs. He's adjusted his workouts to try meeting that goal. Hillman has been running with the starters this past week but will have to prove he can by physical enough to challenge for No. 1 back duties.

FANTASY TIP: It's a crowded backfield, though, that also carries rookie Montee Ball (widely considered the favorite to start), Willis McGahee and Knowshon Moreno, so we'll have to see how the summer shakes out before confidently saying Hillman has sleeper draft value.

Patriots | Julian Edelman's deal revised
Fri, 24 May 2013 08:02:14 -0700

New England Patriots WR Julian Edelman signed a one-year deal earlier in the offseason with a $50,000 roster bonus, but $40,000 of that offseason workout bonus has been converted to a roster bonus for being on the 53-man roster for Week 1, according to a league source. In addition, the financial amounts tied to his receptions incentives have been slightly altered, but the maximum value of the contract remains $1.015 million, the source said.

Saints | Joe Morgan working on route running
Fri, 24 May 2013 07:24:33 -0700

New Orleans Saints WR Joe Morgan said he'll have to work on his intermediate route running to win the No. 3 receiver spot. Six of his 10 receptions last season were for over 30 yards, so defenses will game-plan on him being their deep threat.

Fri, 24 May 2013 06:20:38 -0700

Carolina Panthers DE Greg Hardy dropped 15 pounds in the offseason hoping to improve his speed rush. Hardy broke out with 11 sacks in 2012 after having seven combined in his first two years.

FANTASY TIP: He seems to be plenty motivated in a contract year.

Jets | Chris Ivory has strong lead for featured work
Thu, 23 May 2013 22:06:53 -0700

New York Jets RB Chris Ivory impressed in practice Wednesday, May 22, and is lining up to be the feature back. Mike Goodson's legal troubles are jeopardizing his future with the team. Joe McKnight doesn't appear long for the club. Bilal Powell is the only true competition for touches.

FANTASY TIP: Ivory, who often dazzled in changeup work with the New Orleans Saints, has a high ceiling in this West Coast offense, but his floor is pretty low, as well, if the quarterback play (Mark Sanchez? Geno Smith?) doesn't come through. He's more safely drafted as an RB3 but might garner RB2 attention. Don't put yourself in the latter category based on numbers he hasn't produced yet.

Chargers | Danario Alexander's health helping early workouts
Thu, 23 May 2013 22:04:34 -0700

San Diego Chargers WR Danario Alexander looked fluid in making back-shoulder catches in practice Monday, May 20. He claims he's at full speed, a contrast to his injured May practices last year with the St. Louis Rams.

FANTASY TIP: A full offseason could help Alexander build on his massive potential, but you can't logically pay for a 16-game season from the brittle catcher. He's a WR4, if you can handle the risk.

Chargers | Danny Woodhead picking things up
Thu, 23 May 2013 22:02:08 -0700

San Diego Chargers RB Danny Woodhead looked comfortable in practice Monday, May 20, seeming to grasp the new system while appearing quick and decisive.

FANTASY TIP: Don't bank on Woodhead being used in a Darren Sproles-type role, but his changeup work behind Ryan Mathews should still produce a few weeks of PPR productivity. You'll have to do some scouting -- and read us -- for information on the best situations in which to use the fantasy depth back.

Chargers | Robert Meachem could be trade bait
Thu, 23 May 2013 21:57:54 -0700

If San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem has a strong preseason, the club could see if there's an active trade market for him. His $6.875 million cap number, however, may make that a difficult task.

FANTASY TIP: The inconsistent tease would only be a deep-league flyer unless he winds up in a highly attractive situation.

Vikings | Jared Allen healthy, pondering future
Thu, 23 May 2013 21:49:05 -0700

Minnesota Vikings DE Jared Allen (knee, shoulder), who's a free agent after this year, has "absolutely no idea" where he'll wind up in 2014. "Best-case scenario would have been that we would have never gotten to this point," Allen said. "Best-case scenario would have been the organization would have gotten something done (on an extension) a few years back. ... Well ya know what? That's not the case. And I understand it. ... I'm just happy I'm in a spot where both sides are honoring the contract."

Allen is slated to make more than $14.2 million in 2013 and continues to recover from surgery on a torn labrum in his left shoulder and a meniscus issue in his right knee. When the latter occurred, he said he was too stubborn to get it checked out and instead played through it. With the labrum injury, he had to alter his training regimen and didn't have full range of motion.

FANTASY TIP: Allen feels confident that health will help him rebound during his walk year. The 31-year-old could be a bargain in IDP leagues if your leaguemates discredit him based on last season.
