Detroit’s top receiver entering the season will now miss at least the nextMore three games. Williams was injured in the fourth quarter during the first week of the season and has not played since.

Around the NFL: Amon-Ra St. Brown

I like Amon-Ra St. Brown. He’s just a fourth-round pick and is playing for what should be one of the worst teams in the league, but I think he’s got a good chance to be Detroit’s leading receiver.  more »

St. Brown will join likely starters TYRELL WILLIAMS and BRESHAD PERRIMAN in Detroit. Less

Around the NFL: Tyrell Williams

The Lions signed Tyrell Williams, and I like the move. It’s a low-cost roll of the dice, and maybe they come up with a serviceable deep threat who can be their third receiver.  more »

Around the NFL: Tyrell Williams

So Tyrell Williams has a torn labrum. He says he'll try to play through it, which is maybe good news for the Raiders (at least they'll get something out of him?) but probably makes him hands off in fantasy leagues. Williams tried to play through injury a year ago, and results weren't good.   more »

Factoid: Raiders wideouts

If you're participating in some kind of mock draft competition, make sure you mock a wide receiver to the Raiders in the first round. They've got two picks in that round, No. 12 and No. 19 (thanks to the Khalil Mack trade), and a pressing need for a wideout. Arguably more so than any other team.   more »
