Stock Up


image

David Wilson & Ryan Williams (RB, Virginia Tech)

What’s the scoop?  Darren Evans is out for the year with torn ACL.  Wilson and Williams will try to carry the slack. 
Fantasy impact:  HIGH

image

Matt Barkley (QB, USC)

What’s the scoop?  Aaron Corp is out up to three weeks with a slight crack in his fibula, opening the door for Barkley to grasp a hold of the starting job.
Fantasy impact:  MEDIUM

image

Chris Brown (RB, Oklahoma)

What’s the scoop?  DeMarco Murray’s latest hamstring injury has us wondering if Brown will once again wind up with better stats than his counterpart this fall.
Fantasy impact:  MEDIUM  

image

Alex Torres (WR, Texas Tech)

What’s the scoop?  Torres continues to top the depth chart at the coveted Texas Tech Z (flanker) position.  If he can hang onto this job, he becomes a viable fantasy draft pick.
Fantasy impact:  MEDIUM

image

Randall Cobb (WR, Kentucky)

What’s the scoop?  The Kentucky coaching staff says they want to get Cobb 15 touches per game.  That’s a lot of touches for a “fantasy WR”.  Look for him to lineup at RB, QB, and WR.
Fantasy impact:  MEDIUM  

image

Jock Sanders (WR, West Virginia)

What’s the scoop?  Jock has officially been reinstated to the WVU program and has been practicing with the team.  He should be QB Jarrett Brown’s top receiving weapon this fall.
Fantasy impact:  LOW

image

Sean Canfield (QB, Oregon State)

What’s the scoop?  Lyle Moevao’s recovery from shoulder surgery is going slower than expected.  With each passing day, Canfield’s chances of winning the starting job become greater.
Fantasy impact:  LOW  

image

Richard Samuel (RB, Georgia)

What’s the scoop?  Samuel has looked great in camp this far, while No. 1 back King is out 7-10 days with a hamstring injury.
Fantasy impact:  LOW

image

Ansel Ponder (WR, Western Michigan)

What’s the scoop?  Freshman Ponder has show flashes of brilliance in camp thus far.  Keep him on your waiver wire radar this fall as Western Michigan loves to throw the rock and they are looking for new WR’s to step it up.
Fantasy impact:  LOW  

image

Atiyyah Henderson and/or Brandon Sullivan (RB, San Diego State)

What’s the scoop?  Both Head Coach Brady Hoke and Offensive Coordinator Al Borges echoed the same sentiment:  that they want to find a feature back to carry the load in the backfield.  Good news for whoever wins the job between Henderson and Sullivan. 
Fantasy impact:  LOW

Stock Down


image

Baron Batch (RB, Texas Tech)
What’s the scoop? Batch went down with an undisclosed arm/elbow injury and could be out of commission for 3-6 weeks.
Fantasy impact: HIGH

image

Darren Evans (RB, Virginia Tech)
What’s the scoop? Evans is out for the year with a torn ACL.
Fantasy impact: HIGH

image

Aaron Corp (QB, USC)
What’s the scoop? Corp has a slight crack in his fibula and could miss up to three weeks of practice time, opening the door for Matt Barkley to get valuable first team reps.
Fantasy impact: MEDIUM

image

DeMarco Murray (RB, Oklahoma)
What’s the scoop? Murray suffered another hamstring injury and could miss up to two weeks of valuable camp time.
Fantasy impact:  MEDIUM

image

Malcolm Lane (WR, Hawaii)
What’s the scoop? The Honolulu Adviser reports that University of Hawai’i wideout Malcolm Lane will redshirt this season to focus on academics.
Fantasy impact:  MEDIUM

image

Caleb King (RB, Georgia)
What’s the scoop? King injured his hamstring and could be out for 7-10 days.  Given that his grip on the starting gig was already questioned, this injury could knock him down the depth chart.
Fantasy impact:  LOW

image

Ryan Tannehill (WR, Texas A&M)
What’s the scoop? Tannehill continues to practice at the QB position.  The longer this experiment goes on, the more worried we get about his prospects at the WR position.
Fantasy impact:  MEDIUM

image

Lyle Moevao (QB, Oregon State)
What’s the scoop? His recovery is going slower than expected and it looks like he might not be ready for the start of the season.
Fantasy impact:  LOW

image

Russell Wilson (QB, NC State)
What’s the scoop? The Wolfpack coaching staff plans to insert youngster Mike Glennon for a series each game.  This would obviously take some stats away from Wilson.
Fantasy impact:  LOW

image

Michael Smith (RB, Arkansas)
What’s the scoop? USC transfer Broderick Green was cleared to play this fall by the NCAA.  Green is an absolute beast who could steal some carries from Smith, particularly in the red zone.
Fantasy impact:  LOW

image

Keithen Valentine (RB, Kansas State)
What’s the scoop? JUCO transfer Daniel Thomas has been cleared to practice with the team, and is being seen as an RB through the eyes of Coach Bill Snyder.  Thomas poses a major threat to Valentine on the depth chart.
Fantasy impact:  LOW
