 Trent Edwards-QB-BillsJul. 2 - 10:15 pm et
Chris Brown of Buffalobills.com believes the Bills will use the no-huddle offense 50 percent of the time "at best."
It's still a higher estimate than we originally expected. Much will depend on opponent and the Bills defense's ability to create turnovers and 3-and-outs to ensure adequate rest. Even if the team does use a 50/50 split, it still has plenty of potential to boost the fantasy numbers of Trent Edwards, Terrell Owens and Lee Evans.

 Chris Draft-LB-RamsJul. 2 - 9:46 pm et
Chris Draft recently revealed that he's currently running as the Rams' starting middle linebacker.
Larry Grant and David Vobora are competing for the strong-side job, with rookie James Laurinaitis backing up Draft. We expect Laurinaitis to unseat Draft in training camp, pushing the veteran into a reserve role.

 Jared Cook-TE-TitansJul. 2 - 9:23 pm et
Titans agreed to terms with third-round TE Jared Cook on a four-year contract. The deal includes a signing bonus of close to $700,000.
Cook made the biggest impression among Titans rookies during OTAs. Though he's a potential mismatch for opposing defenses, he's currently just third on the depth chart. With Bo Scaife a free agent after the season, though, Cook could easily lay claim to being the most valuable tight end prospect in Dynasty leagues.

 Marvin Harrison-WR-ColtsJul. 2 - 7:55 pm et
Talent evaluators around the league are reportedly rating free agents Amani Toomer and Joe Horn higher than Marvin Harrison.
According to NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora, there is widespread belief that Marvin "may be done." Toomer is reported to be high on several teams "emergency lists," but we have a hard time believing Horn is actually garnering any interest, much less a greater share than Harrison.

 Jason Campbell-QB-RedskinsJul. 2 - 7:29 pm et
Redskins GM Vinny Cerrato emphasized that it's "yet to be determined" if Jason Campbell can be a franchise quarterback.
"We hope he can play 16 games like he played the first eight last year. Consistency throughout," said Cerrato. The team's offseason actions -- flirting with Jay Cutler and Mark Sanchez while refusing to extend Campbell's contract -- clearly indicate a lack of faith in Campbell as the long-term answer.

 Jason Taylor-DL-DolphinsJul. 2 - 7:07 pm et
A Virgin Islands jury has awarded Jason Taylor and two partners $1.5 million in a botched sale of a private island.
The jury determined that the seller was in breach of contract for the 158-acre island, so Taylor will receive his share of the deposit plus expenses. And they say fans can no longer identify with the lives of superstar athletes?

 Eli Manning-QB-GiantsJul. 2 - 7:01 pm et
ESPN.com's Matt Mosley cites a Giants source who says "there's no way" the team's contract talks with Eli Manning's will become contentious.
"Something will probably get done before the season, and everyone will move on," added the source. Mosley believes Eli could haul in $50M guaranteed on his way to becoming the highest-paid quarterback in the league. Mosley also calls Eli, owner of a 77.8 passer rating in seven playoff games and a career 55.9 completion rate, arguably the fourth best quarterback in the league.
