Fantasy Update:


Wow I knew I loved Fantasy for a reason, ok for real here is an update on all fantasy news.

Yes, it is Edgerrin James with Kurt Warner, Anquan Boldin and Larry Fitzgerald. The Arizona Cardinals continued in their offseason activity Saturday as running back Edgerrin James visited the Cardinals Training Facility to meet with members of the Cardinals football operations and coaching staff. This looks as if it could be a done deal. If so James still would have great keeper stock, and Warner's value goes up because not only does he have two great WR, he now has a great running back.




Cleveland reached agreement with former Seattle wide receiver Joe Jurevicius on a four-year deal worth about $10 million. Jurevicius has played in the Super Bowl with each of his three previous teams. He was very good last year as an injury fill-in for the Seahawks, catching 55 balls for 694 yards and 10 touchdowns, and will serve as a complement to Braylon Edwards, the team's first-round pick last year. Joe could make a good number two or third wide receiver for an fantasy owner.

Washington and San Francisco are nearing a deal that would send a 2006 third-round pick and a 2007 fourth-round selection to the 49ers for wide receiver Brandon Lioyd. Pending a physical, the deal should be completed before the end of the weekend.

Carolina re-signed RB DeShaun Foster to a three-year deal worth about $14.5 million.

Minnesota re-signed WR Koren Robinson to a three-year, $12.7 million deal that, with options, really is a one-year, $3 million deal.

Running back Chester Taylor has spent the past four years in Jama Lewis' shadow, but he stepped out of that shadow by signing a four-year, $14.1 million deal with the Vikings. The deal includes $5.6 million in bonuses, according to the Associated Press. Taylor was targeted by the Vikings as the best fit for new coach Brad Childress and his West Coast offense.

San Diego quarterback Drew Brees is scheduled to visit New Orleans today, but first is meeting with Miami officials in Alabama. Brees could be a 1st round tier if he is completely healed.

Pittsburgh wide receiver Antwaan Randle El will visit Washington today and Chicago on March 12.

Cincinnati quarterback Jon Kitna will visit the Jets.

New England wide receiver David Givens will visit Miami today and Houston on March 12.

Miami quarterback Sage Rosenfels will visit Houston today.
