    Out of the group of TEs you listed, I'd go with Kendricks. I don't like holding on to players who can't even help you now and probably not even through the bye weeks. I'd drop Winslow.

    I'd gamble, Miles Austin is always hurt and Romo is gonna have a really good year.

    How bad do you need a flex or possible WR2 though.

    With Bryant, Witten, and Austin all having their various issues, I'd say Ogletree has the potential to be a very good fantasy performer. I thought it would maybe be Dwayne Harris or Cole Beasley, but I knew Romo would be looking for his 3rd guy, just like he did so often with Robinson last season.

    Oh I think he'll be bad, he was bad before he got hurt last year. Its just thats he is practicing and if all RBs are semi-healthy, its not gonna be a good fantasy situation... and also they'll be taking practice reps from each other.

    I'd go Meachem. Alex Smith is too inconsistent. And they'll still be a run heavy team even with the new WR additions.

    I currently have:

    Julio Jones
    Antonio Brown
    Torrey Smith
    Denarius Moore
    Rod Streater
    Sidney Rice

    As my receiver corp. It's a ppr league so any upper hand I can get on receivers is uber helpful.

    Nice stash of Streater. It looks like he might get some numbers this weekend. I think Brandon Tate(Bengals) will be a sleeper this weekend. He is #2WR and I expect them to be behind in the game and will throw the ball. He also returns kicks and punts.

    What's the OAK WR depth chart look like? I have Denarius in a few leagues and am wondering where Criner fits in as well..

    The thinking around DC is that Morris will get the majority of the carries and Royster will be his backup (even though Royster is listed as the starter). And then Helu will be the 3rd down back. The Skins running game has looked great this preseason. The problem is it looked great last preseason too, and the Skins ended up like 25th in rushing. On the bright side, Royster and Helu looked good in limited action last year. So yes, there is potential in the running game; it's just that all the players are unproven and there's a huge chance it could all suck again. RG3 scramble yardage might take away some TD opportunities too.

    Who knows. The only constant is DHB. Other than that you'd think Moore would be starting if healthy, but he's not healthy.

    Jacoby Ford's foot still isn't where it should be and he might be looking at another lengthy absence, hence they brought back Derek Hagan.

    Criner looked like Randy Moss at mini camp, didn't really do much in the preseason until he and Pryor hooked up to torch the Lions camp fodder. He's going to have to fight for playing time.

    Streater caught everything in camp and preseason and will start against SD. He looks like he may be a legit possession receiver. Runs crisp routes over the middle and has good hands.

    Right now I'd say its like this...

    WR1 Heyward-Bey Moore
    WR2 Streater Criner Hagan

    Did they finally announce that Tate would start opposite AJ Green?

    I thought maybe Marvin Jones was going to beat him and Sanu out. There also was another big body receiver that was making good plays throughout, his name escapes me.

    The latest depth chart and player charts I have seen say he will be WR#2

    Well Kubiak just said Arian Foster will be a game-time decision, he missed practice again today. I think this will give Ben Tate a few more running attempts. Maybe even Forsett gets some third down looks.

    I have looked at multiple sources. Does anyone know what the status of Mario Manningham is. Is was questionable that he would play this week because his grandfather passed away. Is he still unlikely to play?

    Denarious Moore went through practice today and looked good. Looks like he may be back at full strength.

    I'd go Moore.
