Fantasy Football Week 2 Predictions

Brandon Marshall Returns

NO: Patten to open camp as starter

David Patten (WR) 7/23: The New Orleans Times-Picayune indicates that David Patten will begin training camp as the starting receiver opposite Marques Colston. No-Offseason Take: This is not great news for keeper and dynasty owners hoping that Robert Meachem or Adrian Arrington would make an early impact, however, nothing is written in stone, and this really isn't that surprising. We'll continue to monitor the situation. For now, Patten has WR4-WR5 value in deep seasonal leagues, with minimal dynasty value.

Devery Henderson May Get Cut…

Word is that Saints WR Devery Henderson is not guaranteed a roster spot in 2008. Robert Meachem and Adrian Arrington appear to be the most fantasy worthy WRs on the Saints roster other than Marques Colston at this point. Sorry, but we don’t really like David Patten or Lance Moore much either.

Sammy Knight, Giants SS
