- The Raiders are expecting big things from newly acquired Matt Schaub this season. Dynasty owners shouldn’t. Unless they draft Sammy Watkins to take some of the load off, Schaub is not a solution.
- The Jets signed quarterback Mike Vick to compete with second-year quarterback Geno Smith. The Jets have made some moves in the passing game during free agency and Vick could still provide some value. Geno’s dynasty stock does take a dip.
- receiver Marquess Wilson will get the first chance to be the third receiver in Chicago. It’s a sizable position to be in after Alshon Jeffery and Brandon Marshall. Expect Wilson’s dynasty value to soar leading up to the 2014 season.
- Also in Bears news, expect linebacker Jon Bostic to move outside in 2014. The move will dampen his dynasty value. Meanwhile, former defensive end Shea McClellin will move to linebacker which should improve his dynasty value after some potential at end.
- The Steelers signed receiver Lance Moore. Markus Wheaton dynasty owners shouldn’t worry as Moore isn’t expected to challenge his dynasty value. Currently, Moore looks like he was signed for depth.

Daily Dynasty Update – February 21st
- Bears linebacker Jon Bostic will play primarily in the middle next year which is just the next step in, hopefully, a productive career.
- The Cardinals are expected to use multiple backs even though Andre Ellington is, clearly, the superior talent. Either way, Ellington is a must-own in dynasty leagues whether he’s a starter or compliment.
- It’s becoming more obvious that Steelers wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders will not be back in Pittsburgh which is great news for Markus Wheaton dynasty owners. As for Sanders, he’s an average producer.
- The Bucs might be drafting a quarterback at #7 in the upcoming draft. Obviously, this drops Mike Glennon’s stock a bit but could be a decent buy-low candidate. It’s hard to determine if a top-tier quarterback will even be available.
- 49ers linebacker NaVorro Bowman is looking at coming back halfway through next season after recovering from a catastrophic knee injury in the NFC Championship game. Bowman was, arguably, the top linebacker in dynasty before the injury and, hopefully, can rebound.
Daily Dynasty Update – December 21st
- Bears rookie linebacker Jon Bostic may end up on the outside instead of manning the middle linebacker position. Bostic was hyped as the heir to Brian Urlacher in Chicago and was highly rated in dynasty circles before the season. Unfortunately, his dynasty value may have peaked.
- Packers tight end Brandon Bostick is done for the season but you may want to pick up if you’re in a deep dynasty league. Incumbent tight end Jermichael Finley might not play football again and the position is wide-open in 2014.
- Texans rookie tight end Ryan Griffin could start again for Houston this weekend. Griffin is an interesting dynasty prospect being young and at least the back-up heading in to next year if not the starter. Hell, he’s even a decent play for this week’s dynasty championships.
Dynasty Recap – Week 11 – Bears escape Ravens, 23-20
- Baltimore running back Ray Rice came out of nowhere to have 131 rushing yards on 25 carries to go along with 17 yards receiving on three catches. By far his best game of the season, Rice has tanked for dynasty owners in 2013 but, hopefully, this is a sign of things to come in 2014 and beyond.
- Bears receiver Alshon Jeffery continues to command attention, leading the team in targets with 11 to go along with seven catches for 83 yards. It’s fair to wonder when Jeffery will overtake Brandon Marshall for good as Marshall will be 30 entering next season.
- Bears rookie linebacker Jon Bostic had a solid outing with five tackles, one tackle for a loss and an interception. Bostic won’t be going anywhere so you would be wise to see what it would take to extract Bostic for your team.
