Around the League

Rudi Johnson

He's killing fantasy owners all around America, and last week Mr. Watson's 3 TD game made it easier for Rudi to sit again this week. He was did not practice on Wed. and looks like he will sit out the Steeler Game. Don't be too sad Rudi owners, the fact that he went down and left your cupboard empty in late October just means that, next year, you should stock up on Running Backs because they break easily.

Travis Henry / Selvin Young

We might have to wait just a little bit longer. Henry was not a practice on Wed. and does not have any herbs to ease the pain of his bruised ribs, but he said today that he will play with padding covering himself on the Monday Night Game. Should be a game time decision but bruised Ribs are tough to get hit on, especially for a bruiser like Travis.

If you have options at RB, sit Selvin for another week. However, if you're thin, let him go. He should increase his workload this week.

Mo Jones Drew

He will play on Sunday. Not happy about all the questions on his knee, but he's tough and wants to keep things rolling. For all of you who refused to sell low on Mr. Jones, he will keep coming through for you.

Chris Henry (Bengals)

He was back at practice this week and is fresh, so grab him now off of your waiver wire. He's going to big come playoff time when other receivers start to go down.

What are your thoughts about Derrick Ward and the new replacement for Ronnie Brown now that he is out for the season?

Derrick Ward did not practice yesterday or today. He is listed as doubtful for week 8.

As for Jessie Chapman, he had a good pre-season and steps into a system that made Ron Brown look really good. If you are in a yardage league, I would pick him up if there is a chance to do so.

Glad you're still talking to me after Reggie Brown.
