Seahawks TE Jimmy Graham's workload increases

Aug 30, 2016

Seahawks tight end Jimmy Graham continues to see his workload increase. The 29-year-old took part in pregame warmups versus the Cowboys and has taken part in team drills during practice this week as he works his way back from surgery to repair a ruptured patellar tendon.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said Graham has looked impressive, but offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said Graham now needs to spend time getting used to playing in on-field traffic as he attempts to return for the Seahawks regular-season opener against the Miami Dolphins on Sept. 11.

Raiders coach Josh McDaniels: no desire to trade Josh Jacobs "at all"

Josh McDaniels reiterated today that he is not exploring a trade to ship Jacobs out of Las Vegas.

Related Players: Kenyan Drake, Zamir White, Brandon Bolden

Fantasy Impact:

This is probably worse in fantasy land than if they simply found him a new home. It certainly raised some eyebrows when veteran Jacobs got some run in the Hall of Fame Game last week, a contest typically reserved for backups and players fighting for a spot on the roster, not RB1s. The Raiders already had Kenyan Drake in Jacobs' RB room before the team added Ameer Abdullah, Brandon Bolden, and fourth-round pick Zamir White. Jacobs is getting squeezed in every direction, but most discouraging, in the receiving game, where he doubled his career reception total in 2021 en route to his RB16 finish.

K.J. Hamler getting first full-speed reps with 1st team offense

The presumptive new WR3 after Tim Patrick's season-ending torn ACL was Hamler's first padded reps with Russell Wilson and the gang today.

Fantasy Impact:

There are a fair amount of mouths to feed within the Denver Broncos offense, but nonetheless, Hamler will have an opportunity to cut out a portion of the offense for himself as he returns from his own torn ACL that he suffered last season. A second-round pick in 2020, he has only seen the field in 17 career games, accruing a 35-455-3 stat line in the process.

Ravens RB J.K. Dobbins activated off PUP

Barring any setbacks, this means Dobbins is on course to play Week 1 against the Jets.

Related Players: Gus Edwards, Mike Davis

Fantasy Impact:

Lamar Jackson will always cap the ceiling of any running back associated with his offense, but the RB1 in Baltimore still has plenty of upside. It would seem that the Ravens are more than likely to return to their extreme run-heavy rate in 2022 after finishing 32nd and 27th in neutral pass rate over the 2019 and 2020 seasons. If Dobbins has a full, healthy season, he will be a steal in the fifth round of fantasy drafts.
