Ahmad Bradshaw totaled 52 yards with a touchdown on just seven touches versus the Panthers – And he looked highly impressive doing so. With Andre Brown (Achilles' tendon) out for the season, Bradshaw's status as the RB2 is even stronger, not that he wasn't already locked into the position. Brandon Jacobs will obviously get the majority of the carries, including at the goal line, but this is a team that ran the ball more than 500 times last season, and Jacobs remains a pretty big injury risk. Remember, even with Jacobs missing just three games last year, Derrick Ward amassed 1,409 yards, and there's reason to believe Bradshaw is even more talented – part of his problem last year was that he was playing hurt, which wasn't revealed until recently. The Giants have a fantastic offensive line and defense, so the ground game will remain the priority, and Bradshaw is a far superior receiver to Jacobs, whose hands might be the worst in the league. Bradshaw has averaged a remarkable 6.1 YPC throughout his brief career, and if given the opportunity, he could be a huge difference maker. I'd definitely take him over guys like Willie Parker and Julius Jones. If Jacobs suffered a season-ending injury, Bradshaw could win your league for you.
Roy Williams (sprained left wrist) returned to the practice field Monday – Williams looks like a boom-or-bust pick this year, and mainly because of Tony Romo, I'd take the gamble. There will certainly be safer options, but I'd roll the dice on Williams ahead of Braylon Edwards, Chad Johnson, T.J. Houshmandzadeh and Brandon Marshall.
Marc Bulger suffered a small fracture in his right pinkie and will miss two weeks - As a result, Kyle Boller will start for the Rams against Atlanta on Friday and at Cincinnati on Aug. 27. It sounds like Bulger will be available by Week 1, but this certainly doesn't help the oft-injured QB's chances of adjusting to the team's new offense. There's a legitimate argument for Steven Jackson as a top-five fantasy pick, but the Rams offense could be the worst in the NFL.
Fox's Jay Glazer speculates that Brett Favre could still decide to return to the NFL – Of course. Again, now that almost everyone is fed up with this ridiculousness, even including the majority of current and ex-players, this situation becomes even more amusing. Nothing should surprise at this point. In fact, I'm definitely rooting for a Favre return.
