Maroney: I will prove my worth

May 06, 2009

Running back Laurence Maroney vowed that he will silence his critics this season and prove to Patriots fans that heâ€™s worthy of being a first-round pick. And recognizing that this is a make-or-break season, Maroney said he is confident he will respond. â€œMan, you know, you like to be confident,â€ Maroney said in a phone interview this morning. â€œYou never want to say itâ€™s not going to be your year. I just feel real confident about myself. I just feel like this has to be my year. Thereâ€™s no other way around it. I just feel like I have to be better this year.â€

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.

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.
