- Look for Eagles tight end Zach Ertz to be the primary receiving end next year, supplanting Brent Celek. It only makes sense as Philadelphia invested a 2nd round pick in Ertz and he has the tools to contribute now.
- The running back situation in Indy is wide-open headed in to 2014. I still say this could be a great time to buy-low on Trent Richardson. Will he be a top five dynasty back? Probably not. But is he better than his performance in Indy last year? I think so. It wouldn’t hurt to investigate the possibility of acquiring him in your dynasty league.
- Giants running back David Wilson is recovering nicely from neck surgery which is good news in any capacity. Dynasty owners that held on to him may reap the benefits after all.
- It’s looking more likely that LaMarr Woodley will not be in Pittsburgh next year unless he takes a massive pay cut. This means Jason Worilds and Jarvis Jones are first in line to start in 2014. Stay tuned.

Daily Dynasty Update – December 18th
- Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski will have his eighth surgery, this one to repair his torn ACL/MCL. Gronk is as good as it gets at tight end but the injuries have piled up quick for the 24-year old. He’s the epitome of boom-or-bust.
- Lions quarterback Matt Stafford was never in danger of being pulled. In fact, it’s a joke it was even brought up. He’s still a QB1 in dynasty leagues but monitor the coaching change, if any, in Detroit for a new scheme.
- The Raiders coaches apparently have moved on from Terrelle Pryor. It’s odd as Pryor seemed to perform well while learning on the fly. He’ll be a non-factor in dynasty leagues next year.
- The Steelers may be ready to move on from linebacker LaMarr Woodley in the off-season. He carries a big price tag, has been injured a lot, and will be 29 entering the 2014 season. The Steelers seemingly have a backup plan with Jason Worilds and Jarvis Jones manning the outside.
Daily Dynasty Update – November 25th
- Buccaneers rookie tight end Tim Wright is going to be utilized even more this season, providing a golden opportunity to increase his value for dynasty leaguers. He played receiver in college and has the skills to be a force in the passing game.
- Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew might be back in Jacksonville next year after all. It won’t matter as Jones-Drew will be 29 next year and is only averaging 3.2 YPC. He’s one to avoid in dynasty leagues.
- Raiders running back Rashad Jennings will be forced to give up carries to Darren McFadden this week but should still outperform him. The real question for dynasty leaguers is who will be starting next year in Oakland? Both Jennings and McFadden will be free agents and aren’t getting any younger.
- After another lost fumble Sunday, don’t expect Patriots running back Stevan Ridley to handle the work load like he did in 2012. The Patriots have no faith in his ability to hold on to the ball and will severely cut into his playing time. Ridley owners can only hope he rebounds in time for 2014.
- Eagles quarterback Nick Foles has been named the starter for the rest of the season. For all intents and purposes, he’ll be the started in 2014 as well.
- Steelers linebacker Jason Worilds has played so well recently (three sacks in four games) that there’s talk of him taking over for Lamarr Woodley in 2014. He’d certainly be cheaper.
