Broncos Beat: Montee Ball, Cody Latimer are the 'biggest disappointments' of camp

Sep 04, 2015

The Denver Post named Montee Ball and Cody Latimer the "biggest disappointments" of camp.

Biggest disappointment: Montee Ball failed to gain traction in the new offense. He is a smart player, a hard worker, but he does not look like the player he was at Wisconsin or even during his rookie season. There haven't been many holes to run through, but in the NFL you have to make tacklers miss and break tackles, which Ball has not done with any consistency.

Receiver Cody Latimer also failed to make big plays, which could cost him snaps as Andre Caldwell and Jordan Norwood receive opportunities before him.

Fantasy Impact:

It sounds as if Latimer may not have a solid hold of the WR3 spot. He's not going to play much if HC Gary Kubiak sticks with his usual two-TE sets. Ball has fallen down the depth chart and is in danger of getting cut.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara off injury report ahead of Week 15

Tom Pelissero

yesterday · 4:30 PM EST

The Saints officially listed QB Derek Carr (left hand/concussion) as doubtful for Sunday vs. Washington. Jake Haener will make his first NFL start.

RB Alvin Kamara (illness) is off the injury report and good to go.

Related Players: Kendre Miller

Fantasy Impact:

It would have been an easy click for a Kendre Miller week if Kamara were forced to miss, but this puts the kibosh on that. Fire Kamara up as an RB2 this week in a game that may feature him even more than usual with no Carr.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker Doubtful for Week 15

The Seahawks list RB Kenneth Walker III (calf) as doubtful for Sunday's game.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like a clear runway for another Charbonnet week in what should be a tightly contested game against the Packers at home. Fire him up as a fringe RB1/2.
