TE Alexander Smith traded from TB to NE

May 02, 2009

The Patriots have obtained TE Alexander Smith from the Bucs. The Patriots gave up an undisclosed pick in next year's NFL draft for the four-year veteran, who was drafted by the Bucs in the third round in 2005. Smith had 129 receptions for 1,252 yards and 11 touchdowns in 58 games. He started 12 of the 14 games he played last year, catching 21 passes. He caught 41 passes in 2005, the most by a rookie tight end that season. The Patriots have nine draft picks in 2010 plus an undisclosed choice obtained in a trade that also brought them WR Greg Lewis from Philadelphia.

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.
