Meachem on crutches after surgery

May 10, 2010

Larry Holder of CBS Sports is reporting on Twitter that New Orleans Saints WR Robert Meachem had toe surgery and the goal is to have him back by the first week of training camp. He's currently on crutches.

Fantasy Impact:

Meachem is WR2 or WR3 on your fantasy team and a solid option in a lot of matchups because the Saints throw the ball so much. This probably won't hurt his value a whole lot, considering the style of offense he's in - unless he's not ready to start the season.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara off injury report ahead of Week 15

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.
