 News: Moss missed practice on Wednesday.

 Player: Kolby Smith RB, Kansas City Chiefs 11/11/09, Time: 8:29 am
 News: The Kansas City Star reports that Smith could see a larger role as the season moves along.

 Player: Ben Watson TE, New England Patriots 11/06/09, Time: 8:57 pm
 News: Watson (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Miami.
 Analysis:

Too bad for him as the entire New England passing game ought to be able to tee off against a Dolphins defensive squad that is fielding three rookies. He's too inconsistent to depend upon. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Chris Chambers WR, Kansas City Chiefs 11/06/09, Time: 8:19 am
 News: The Kansas City Star reports that Chambers could make his Chiefs' debut on Sunday against the Jaguars.

 Player: Ben Watson TE, New England Patriots 11/06/09, Time: 8:15 am
 News: Watson practiced on a limited basis on Thursday due to a minor back injury.

 News: The Boston Herald reports that Morris is expected to return to action in a few weeks.

 Player: Kolby Smith RB, Kansas City Chiefs 11/05/09, Time: 8:24 am
 News: The Kansas City Star reports that Smith is not expected to see many carries this week.
 Analysis:

Jamaal Charles is getting the start and is expected to see the bulk of the carries on Sunday. Smith still needs to be activated from the PUP list. (SportsBuff.com)

 Analysis:

 Player: Brandon Tate WR, New England Patriots 11/03/09, Time: 10:45 pm
 News: The Boston Herald reports that Tate will see some time as the number three receiver in New England along with Sam Aiken.
 Analysis:

Tate and Aiken are both players to keep your eye on going forward as the Patriots like the throw the ball. Either one would emerge as a decent fantasy option in deeper leagues. (SportsBuff.com)

 News: The Boston Herald reports that Moss was given the entire bye week to rest.
 Analysis:

 Player: Chris Chambers WR, Kansas City Chiefs 11/03/09, Time: 10:34 pm
 News: Chambers was claimed off of waviers by the Chiefs on Tuesday after being waived by the Chargers.

 News: Johnson is being investigated by the Chiefs and has been asked to stay away from the team, according to the Kansas City Star.
 Analysis:

Johnson made some inappropriate comments and could be disciplined by the Chiefs. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Jamaal Charles RB, Kansas City Chiefs 10/27/09, Time: 12:00 am
 News: Charles should see an increased workload going forward for the Chiefs.
 Analysis:

Charles has done well in the limited carries he has received this season and with the Larry Johnson drama going around, he could be the feature back if he Johnson faces a suspension. Stay tuned. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Brandon Tate WR, New England Patriots 10/25/09, Time: 11:10 am
 News: The Boston Globe reports that the Patriots have activated Tate and added him to their 53-man roster.

 Status:

 News: Moss practiced in full on Thursday, according to the Boston Globe.
 Analysis:

 Player: Wes Welker WR, New England Patriots 10/22/09, Time: 1:47 am
 News: The Boston Globe reports that Welker practice in full on Thursday.

 Player: Kolby Smith RB, Kansas City Chiefs 10/21/09, Time: 6:49 pm

 News: Welker had ten receptions for a career-high 150 yards and two touchdowns on Sunday against the Titans.

 News: Faulk had one carry for five yards and three receptions for 54 yards and a touchdown against the Titans on Sunday.
 Analysis:

 Player: BenJarvus Green-Ellis RB, New England Patriots 10/19/09, Time: 8:01 pm
 News: Green-Ellis had seven carries for 67 yards and two catches for 11 yards in Sunday's win over the Titans.
 Analysis:

Green-Ellis finally got his first carries of the season but could see an expanded role if Sammy Morris cannot play next week against Tampa Bay. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Sammy Morris RB, New England Patriots 10/19/09, Time: 7:59 pm

 Player: Laurence Maroney RB, New England Patriots 10/19/09, Time: 7:57 pm
 News: Maroney carried 16 times for 123 yards and a touchdown against the Titans on Sunday.
 Analysis:

 News: Bowe hauled in six receptions for 109 yards on Sunday against Washington.
 Analysis:

His production is nothing short of miraculous considering the lack of weaponry the Chiefs have. Bowe's value only increases on a weekly basis. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Larry Johnson RB, Kansas City Chiefs 10/18/09, Time: 9:08 pm
 News: Johnson rushed the ball 23 times for 83 yards during the Chiefs' victory over the Redskins on Sunday.
 Analysis:

It's been a long time since Johnson has been fantasy relevant. 83 yards used to be a good half for him; now, it's pretty much his ceiling. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Matt Cassel QB, Kansas City Chiefs 10/18/09, Time: 9:06 pm
 News: Cassel threw for 186 yards against Washington during Sunday's win.
 Analysis:

These are probably not the numbers that many expected when they drafted Cassel to be their starting quarterback. Even worse, he took five more sacks and any quarterback who takes that kind of punishment on a regular basis is a good risk for an injury. (SportsBuff.com)

 News: Watson was limited in practice on Friday and is still recovering from a head injury.

 News: Moss was limited in practice on Friday but is listed as probable to play on Sunday against the Titans.
 Analysis:

Moss has a minor shoulder injury but it is not expected to effect him on Sunday. Start him as you normally would. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Junior Seau LB, New England Patriots 10/14/09, Time: 12:16 pm
 News: The Patriots have signed Seau to a contract, according to Boston.com.
 Analysis:

Seau adds depth to the the Patriots' linebacker position but it remains up in the air on how much he will play going forward. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Larry Johnson RB, Kansas City Chiefs 10/14/09, Time: 12:11 pm
 News: The Kansas City Star reports that despite his struggles, Johnson will remain the starting running back.
 Analysis:

Johnson has rushed for 226 yards on 93 carries, a 2.4 ypc average, so far this season and has failed to score a touchdown. He faces a Redskins' defense in Week 6. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Wes Welker WR, New England Patriots 10/10/09, Time: 2:42 am
 News: The Boston Globe reports that Welker was limited in practice on Friday and is questionable for Week 5 against the Broncos.
 Analysis:

Welker has been dealing with a knee injury but is still expected to play on Sunday. Keep him in your lineup for now but double check on Sunday that he is active. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Jerod Mayo LB, New England Patriots 10/10/09, Time: 2:28 am
 Status:
Questionable
 News: The Boston Globe reports that Mayo could return to action on Sunday against Denver.

 Player: Fred Taylor RB, New England Patriots 10/09/09, Time: 8:26 am
 Status:
Out
 News: Taylor had surgery on his ankle and could miss the rest of the season, according to the Boston Globe.
 Analysis:

Taylor has played well so far this season with over 200 yards rushing and two touchdowns. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Fred Taylor RB, New England Patriots 10/07/09, Time: 12:35 am
 News: The Boston Herald reports that Taylor did not practice on Wednesday with an ankle injury.
 Analysis:

The injury is not considered serious but is certainly something to keep your eye on. If Taylor cannot play, the Patriots would likely give Laurence Maroney and Sammy Morris more carries. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Tom Brady QB, New England Patriots 10/07/09, Time: 12:29 am
 News: Boston.com reports that Brady was fully active in practice on Wednesday.
 Analysis:

Brady has been dealing with soreness in his right shoulder but will be fine to play in Week 5 against the Broncos. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Junior Seau LB, New England Patriots 10/06/09, Time: 9:02 am
 News: The Boston Globe reports that Seau took a physical with the Patriots.
 Analysis:

The Patriots are in need of depth at linebacker but Seau would have limited IDP fantasy value. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Dwayne Bowe WR, Kansas City Chiefs 10/04/09, Time: 10:00 pm
 News: Bowe managed to catch just one ball for 11 yards against the Giants.
 Analysis:

His hamstring injury affected him much worse than his owners feared and they unfortunately paid the price with his awful production. They may want to wait to see how he recovers before putting him back in again. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Matt Cassel QB, Kansas City Chiefs 10/04/09, Time: 9:57 pm
 News: Cassel threw for only 127 yards and was sacked five times against the Giants during Sunday's loss.
 Analysis:

He did manage to score two touchdowns, salvaging some nice fantasy worth. In KC, though, he is no more than a spot starter as the talent around just doesn't warrant playing him every week. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Dwayne Bowe WR, Kansas City Chiefs 10/03/09, Time: 2:39 am
 News: The Kansas City Star reports that Bowe practiced with the first team on Friday.
 Analysis:

Encouraging news for Bowe who looks like he may play on Sunday against the Giants even though it is likely he will be a game-time decision. If he is active, he should be in your lineup as the Chiefs will be passing a lot. (SportsBuff.com)

 Player: Wes Welker WR, New England Patriots 10/03/09, Time: 2:28 am
 News: Welker is still recovering from his knee injury, according to the Boston Herald.
 Analysis:

Welker has not played since Week 1 and will likely be a game-time decision on Sunday. Keep Julian Edelman on your radar if Welker cannot go. (SportsBuff.com)
