Bryant, who caught 83 passes for 1,248 yards last season will miss the entire preseason due to a damaged meniscus that requires arthroscopic surgery. The Bucs are expecting to have him back for Week 1 but missing the remainder of camp and valuable practice time as the Bucs learn a new offense should knock him down your cheatsheet.

Marshall has caught at least 100 passes the last 2 seasons but will have a new QB this season after the trade of Jay Cutler to Chicago. The good news is that Marshall was not found in violation of the league's personal conduct policy due to his arrest on disorderly conduct charges March 1 following a disturbance with his fiancée. The bad news - Marshall doesn't want to be in Denver and is more interested in himself than the team making him a huge risk for suspension or disciplinary during the season. Draft at your own risk.

Trent Edwards isn't the only Buffalo Bill who could take his fantasy status to new heights this season as a result of the Owens' signing - Evans' stock could soar as well. The speedy receiver will be looking to improve on his career low 3 TDs last season.

The release of Torry Holt has left the Rams with a starting wide receiving corps of Avery and Keenan Burton however Avery will be out at least a month with a foot injury he suffered in a scrimmage. Tough break as Avery was having a good camp up to this point. The Rams are thin and inexperienced at the position with Burton, Laurent Robinson, and Ronald Curry next in line.

The Jags have been without a true number one receiver for many years and parted ways with Matt Jones, Reggie Williams, and Jerry Porter in the offseason. Holt is a great addition to the team but given the run-first philosophy of the Jags offense his days as an elite fantasy receiver are likely over.
