ARIZONA at WASHINGTON ARIZONA AVERAGE YARDS PER POSSESSION: 27.2 (30.3) TOUCHDOWN DRIVE RATE: 27 percent (27 percent) RED ZONE EFFICIENCEY: 1-for-2, 50 percent (2-for-5, 40 percent) RED ZONE DISTRIBUTION: Rush 4, Pass 1 (Rush 5, Pass 5) BIG PLAYS: 10-plus Rush 3, 20-plus Pass 3 (Rush 5, Pass 9) DEEP TARGET ATTEMPTS: 2 (7) While Jeff King only has 97 yards receiving on four receptions he does have a touchdown in each game so far this season. He has outperformed Todd Heap so far and seems to have a nice rapport with Kevin Kolb. He will have some value as a bye week replacement if his progress continues. WASHINGTON AVERAGE YARDS PER POSSESSION: 41.3 (35.8) TOUCHDOWN DRIVE RATE: 17 percent (22 percent) RED ZONE EFFICIENCEY: 2-for-7, 28 percent (4-for-9, 44 percent) RED ZONE DISTRIBUTION: Rush 7, Pass 12 (Rush 12, Pass 16) BIG PLAYS: 10-plus Rush 7, 20-plus Pass 5 (Rush 7, Pass 11) DEEP TARGET ATTEMPTS: 5 (16) Jabar Gaffney is worth an addition as a bye week replacement. He has eight receptions for 116 yards and a touchdown on fifteen targets. He has a good rapport with Rex Grossman and is pushing to be the second option in the passing game. He also leads the receivers and tight ends in red zone targets. DALLAS at SAN FRANCISCO DALLAS AVERAGE YARDS PER POSSESSION: 37.1 (31.4) TOUCHDOWN DRIVE RATE: 25 percent (23 percent) RED ZONE EFFICIENCEY: 1-for-3, 33 percent (3-for-7, 43 percent) RED ZONE DISTRIBUTION: Rush 3, Pass 5 (Rush 8, Pass 14) BIG PLAYS: 10-plus Rush 0, 20-plus Pass 7 (Rush 0, Pass 12) DEEP TARGET ATTEMPTS: 6 (12) With Miles Austin expected to miss time and Kevin Ogletree failing to impress, Jesse Holley could see an increase in playing time. He is not worth a roster spot right now but he is someone to keep an eye on. SAN FRANCISCO AVERAGE YARDS PER POSSESSION: 17.6 (18.4) TOUCHDOWN DRIVE RATE: 25 percent (17 percent) RED ZONE EFFICIENCEY: 2-for-2, 100 percent (3-for-7, 43 percent) RED ZONE DISTRIBUTION: Rush 2, Pass 2 (Rush 12, Pass 8) BIG PLAYS: 10-plus Rush 1, 20-plus Pass 2 (Rush 3, Pass 4) DEEP TARGET ATTEMPTS: 2 (5) Braylon Edwards is expected to miss some time with a knee injury and Michael Crabtree has a nagging injury that has limited him so far this season. Ted Ginn and Josh Morgan will both see an increase in playing time and they are worth monitoring right now. Neither is worth a roster spot at this time however until San Francisco shows some improvement in the passing game. CINCINNATI at DENVER CINCINNATI AVERAGE YARDS PER ...

Offseason Frenzy-NFC Recap fantasysharks.com Wed 8/17/11 2:34 PM

The 2011 NFL off season has been one of the strangest offseasons in history and the repercussions have trickled over in to the world of fantasy football. With free agency and trades taking place on the heels of training camp and even spilling over in to the start of camp, keeping up with all the movement can be challenging. Here is a division-by-division rundown of all the notable player moves with fantasy football relevance and how the moves affect the player's value. NFC West Arizona Cardinals -- The Cardinals' accelerated offseason saw many fantasy noteworthy players come and go. Arizona hopes to have Kevin Kolb under center and consistently tossing touchdowns to Larry Fitzgerald for years to come. Kolb is an upgrade for the Cardinals and is a fringe fantasy starter or high-end quality backup. I would approach him with caution and hope to land him as my QB2 and use him as trade bait if he performs up to expectations. The trade of Tim Hightower thins out a crowded backfield and leaves Chris "Beanie" Wells as the undisputed starter. Or is he? The Cardinals drafted Ryan Williams with the intentions of giving him the opportunity to carry the load. Wells is known to get dinged up and any extended stretch of missed time could mean that he finds himself as Williams' backup. Avoid Wells and consider Williams as a late-round flier who could be a solid contributor if he claims the starting role. Arizona's backfield has the looks of a running back by committee and you should temper your expectations for either player barring an injury. Todd Heap is looking to end his career closer to home and joins the Cardinals as their starting tight end. Heap is a reliable, but unspectacular option. At this stage in this career he is nothing more than a fantasy reserve, but you aren't carrying two tight ends on your roster, are you? San Francisco 49ers -- Braylon Edwards joins a team who has several questions with their receivers. Will Michael Crabtree mature and take advantage of all the talent that he possesses? Can Ted Ginn contribute as a wide receiver? Edwards signed a one-year deal and will be playing this year for his next contract. Expect him to put up decent WR3 numbers. His background, work ethic and new surroundings will probably result in him being slightly undervalued. If you grab two dependable wideouts early don't feel bad about adding Edwards to round out your starters in later rounds. St. Louis Rams -- The Rams' only notable addition this offseason was ...
