Hot Fantasy Football Picks

The St. Louis Rams have acquired WR Mark Clayton from the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for future considerations. A smart pickup for the Rams, who can use some talent at WR after Donnie Avery’s season-ending injury. Clayton should be starting once he picks up the offense, and is back on the fantasy radar.

The Baltimore Ravens have released K Shayne Graham, signaling that Billy Cundiff will be the team’s kicker. A terrible decision by the Ravens, as Graham has consistently been one of the better kickers in the league for several seasons, while Cundiff is a journeyman at best.

The Ravens secondary depth is dangerously thin with FS Ed Reed expected to be sidelined until October.

Baltimore Ravens LB Sergio Kindle has been diagnosed with a fractured skull following his fall down two flights of stairs on Thursday night.

Baltimore Ravens 2nd-round pick LB Sergio Kindle was hospitalized Thursday night after falling down two flights of stairs. Kindle, the 43rd pick in this year’s draft, is expected to make a full recovery, although details of his exact injury are not yet known.
