Just an FYI that we added a listing of every down linebackers based on how we see things now (mostly based on 2011 with some minor updates; this will be updated throughout preseason). This also includes a listing of potential future every down linebackers, as well, for those thinking ahead a bit. It...

I would certainly do this, but maybe it's because I'm not a big Colston fan going forward and mainly because of the knees. There's clear evidence out there against his knees holding up long-term. I did some research on it a few years ago and another microfracture may be the end of him. http://www.re...

Steve, thoughts on Spievey? I always liked Spievey and felt he would break out. I was hoping for that in 2011. Last year was an improvement from his rookie year, but average. There are two things with Spievey that concern me: - He has some serious concussion symptoms that don't appear to be dissipa...

Why is Tom Z not getting any love on any IDP sites? Im totally fine adding him without any trouble but Betha is still getting all the love! Any news or insight? I've seen him suggested as a 2012 value play on a few sites. He should be set up nicely for a solid year, though he's unlikely to be a lon...

Apparently, Brandon Hardin (rookie) is going to challenge Major Wright for the starting SS job in Chicago. Definitely something to watch and a potential preemptive pick up depending on the size of your league. This seems to be somewhat of a speculative story given no coach quotes, but definitely som...

I'd order them:

Criner
Brinkley
JMJ
T.Mays
A.Branch
C.Jones
B.Taylor

Interesting note on Everson Griffen . Classified as a DL, but sounds like he may see increased LB snaps. Something to watch for sneaky value at DE. He may already be rostered in many deeper leagues given Robison's perceived 2011 struggles, though. Last year, coach Leslie Frazier used the backup defe...

It's also important to keep an eye on Miles Burris. He may not necessarily play the middle, but he should see increased time if/when McClain goes away for a bit.

The one other thing I would note is that when MFL goes to separating specific IDP positions (OLB, etc.) we're going to be required to follow and submit a realistic lineup to go with the above formations. I'm not sure I follow. Are you saying MFL will soon label IDPs like WLB, NT, FS, etc? That's th...

We're in the process of working on these and DT. With the addition of Eric O to the mix and me getting swamped at work there was a slight delay, but I would expect within the week.

Positive news on Robert Quinn from the Rams DL coach. Fisher says he's excited in his play against run and thinks he's ready to be an every down DE. Chris Long also had praise for him saying he's going to be "the guy" this year. Great start for Quinn. "There's nothing but upside with ...

Defensive End Matt Shaughnessy back to Raiders practice and healthy. He was a popular sleeper last year, but he may now truly be a sleeper. Positive info from Seymour. Some fluff here, but this is the first time he's been back at practice in months. He's likely to present great value right now and t...

Rocky McIntosh signed with the Rams today and is going to compete for the WLB spot in STL. Could be an interesting guy to watch as he has a realistic shot at winning the spot as the Rams are very weak on that side (no pun intended!). He signed a one year deal, so it's likely that he's only fantasy r...

Pro Football Focus also LOVES him. He was just posted as one of their "Secret Superstars" recently due to his production/snaps. He needs to take that production and spread it over these additional snaps to be close to fantasy relevant. Kenyon Coleman is definitely on his way out in the nea...

Definitely gave off that perception... certainly.
