Donte' Stallworth, CLE


2
Stallworth signs with the Ravens. It is hard to put too much stock into this. While Stallworth's speed has never been an issue, his hands and routes have. The Ravens' offense is best related to the Titans under McNair -- they are ball control, run-first, with play action to keep the defense guessing. However they are very content with their 4 yard chunks of offense.

Thomas Jones, NYJ


1
ESPN's Adam Schefter -- via his Blackberry, of course -- reports that the Chiefs have signed free-agent RB Thomas Jones to a 2-year deal worth $5 million. It's backup money, and that's what we expect Jones to be. The 31-year-old averaged an impressive 4.2 yards per carry in New York last season. But that was behind one of the best offensive lines in the game. He won't have that luxury in Kansas City. Expect the Chiefs to use the quicker and more explosive Jamaal Charles as their primary ball-carrier while getting Jones 8-10 touches per game. That being said, expect Jones to vulture the goal-line work. The move definitely puts a dent in Charles' value, but he still has top-10 upside.

NY Jets Defense, NYJ


1
The Jets add another piece to an already dominant defense. A conditional third round pick in the 2011 draft for Antonio Cromartie is a bargain! Wherever you have the Jets on your board, this move definitely pushes them up a round in my book.

NY Giants Defense, NYG


1
The Giants began the '09 season extremely strong until about the 6th week when teams realized they had no secondary. The signing of Antrel Rolle is the first step towards ending that disaster. But the impact will not be made by Rolle alone but if additional moves are made to compliment this or not.

Detroit Defense, DET


1
The Lions have thus far added Terrance Taylor, Kyle Vanden Bosch, Corey Williams, and Ashlee Palmer. This does not make them good, but it does show continued improvement and commitment to fix what is not working. Last year's changes did make a difference to those that watched more than the box scores. There is no longer an atmosphere of protective mediocrity in DET and fantasy players should take note.

Osgood signs with the Jaguars. This is one of those moves that the savvy FFplayer pays attention to. This move gives the Jags more than one go-to WR. It will either help limit the double teams on Sims-Walker or Osgood will become a good "Hakeem Nicks" type WR. Either way, this is worth paying attention to.

Kassim Osgood, SD

Osgood signs with the Jaguars. This is one of those moves that the savvy FFplayer pays attention to. Osgood was stuck behind Floyd, Jackson, Chambers, and Gates on the Chargers. Yet when he played, he played big! He is 6'5 and averaged 19.5 yd/catch. This move gives the Jags more than one go-to WR and helps keep the pressure off the line for MJD. Definitely worth a late round pick as a deep sleeper.

Early Doucet, ARI


1
Boldin signs with the Ravens. This opens things up for Doucet. Though this does not make him a starter, obviously the Cardinals feel very confident in their current WR corps and Doucet did play well down the stretch in '09. I see him worth a late round pick worth the chance in case Leinart can step in strong.

Anquan Boldin, ARI


1
Boldin signs with the Ravens. This move probably improves Flacco's stock more than it does Bolden's. Remember, Boldin is coming from a high-flying, pass-first offense to the Ravens ball-control, run-based offense. With the way Ray Rice runs, I can't see them giving him less work. Boldin is a good #2 WR right now -- don't overpay for Boldin.

Matt Forte, CHI


1
Chester Taylor signed with the Chicago Bears. Taylor's stock definitely improves here, as he is a good pass-catching back -- which Forte is not. Forte declined in '09 to the detriment of anyone who drafted him in the first round. Cutler obviously is a gunslinger and did not look to Forte as an outlet. Very few passes in '09 and now being taken out on 3rd down?! This move may push Forte as low as the 4th or 5th round.
