The 1st week has arrived and many Roster Wars owners will be biting their nails
for their respective players. This off season has been a killer for everyone in
terms of injuries and a struggle to make up lost ground. Doomsday is coming
Sunday and Dr Doomsday will try to put every injured player to the bench. 
Marshawn Lynch: In contract with Philadelphia Pigskins and Wyoming Headhunters
Owners Philadelphia Pigskins and Wyoming Headhunters will have a really tough time this week on whether to put Lynch in this week. He once again has the PAINFUL back spasms. Lynch is questionable but practiced today on a limited basis. He is a definite game time decision and the back spasms could show up anytime.
Final Verdict: Will play on limited carries. About 8-15 in my opinion.
Ryan Matthews: In contract with the Chicago Crime Syndicate and England Dragons
This man has disappointed people time and time again. After the release of Tolbert, HUGE expectations came from myself and what seemed like the rest of the fantasy world. One year it's fumble, and next injuries. Mathews broke his clavicle and is not looking good at all. He has been to practice on a limited basis but is not cleared for contact. With the game closing in quickly and not even able to get hit, I really don't think this will work out one way or the other. His official status is doubtful but I think it's safe to call him out.
Final Verdict: Out for the game
Adrian Peterson: In contract with the Singapore Slings and Wyoming Headhunters
Peterson's recovery just shows how much of a beast he is. The guy is a monster and should be able to come back. His current status in questionable and is expected to play. If he does play, Coach Leslie Frazier has already said that they will not rush him and put him for limited carries. Gerhart has looked great and will probably get similar amount of carries week 1. My gut feel is that he will play. My main hope is that he doesn't go that hard with his running style and go a little smoother to reduce injury possibilities. Coach Frazier has also
Final Verdict: Will play but get 6-12 carries
Trent Richardson: In contract with the Dectaur Demons and New Mexico Mad Clowns
With high hopes of being the next SUPERSTAR at the RB position, Richardson is going on a relatively slow start. He injured his knee which in my opinion is a killer for hard running RB's like Richardson. Trent is making a slick recovery and is officially listed questionable and is expected to play against the Eagles. The Browns really need him and he seems confident that he will be in the game. In a quote, he has said "I'm still going to play like it's my last".
Final verdict: Will play and get the full load
Jonathan Stewart: In contract with the San Francisco Golddiggers and Florida Chaetomorpha
Getting high expectations for Stewart has been very common the past few years. He started his career wonderfully in one of the best RB duos of all time but has dropped off quite a bit. This week Stewart is questionable due to an ankle injury. He has not practiced in the last 3 days which makes his situation to play a lot worse. The Panthers will make a decision tomorrow(Friday) according to the Charlotte Observer reports.
Final Verdict: Will not play the game
Denarius Moore: In contract with the Singapore Slings and England Dragons
Moore has been looking very good when not injured. He has looked to be the next star for the Raider if injuries don't plague him, That is a HUGE IF. Moore hurt his hamstring and his been out for a long time. He returned to practice today(Thursday) for the first time since August 4th. Moore will be expected to play the Monday night opening showdown with Chargers. Coach Dennis Allen has announced that Moore will be a game time decision.
Final Verdict: Will play and effect the game
Marques Colston: In contract with the England Dragons and San Francisco Golddiggers
Colston who looks to have a big year took a step back with an injury. His foot has caused him to miss practice Wednesday but returned on limited terms today. He looks fine but is officially listed as questionable for the Saints game against the Washington Redskins.
Final Verdict: Will play with no major setbacks
Curtis Lofton: In contract with the Colorado Screaming Eagles and Minnesota Destroyers
Lofton who will be the main anchor of the Saints defense has had an ankle injury for quite some time. He has practiced fully today and looks to just fine. Watch for some huge numbers going forward barring no injury setback. Curtis Lofton is listed as probable right now.
Final Verdict: Will Play
David Hawthrone: In contract with the Utah Spazz and Philadelphia Pigskins
A newly acquired stud from the Seattle Seahawks, the New Orleans Saints LB David Hawthrone has been limited in practice for the past week. He finally practiced fully today and looks to join the new, studly group of new LBs in New Orleans. His official status is probable.
Final Verdict: Will Play
Stevie Johnson: In contract with the Chicago Crime Syndicate and St Louis Duffers
Stevie Johnson a young undrafted receiver just continues to put himself in that stud category. Johnson who hurt his groin sat out practice today. The Bills trainer's believe that he will back tomorrow and Saturday and be ready for the big divisional game against the Jets. Johnson is listed as questionable.
Final Verdict: Will play
Brian Urlacher: In contract with the Colorado Screaming Eagles and Singapore Slings
Urlacher looks like he will be coming back for the season opener. The Bears will really need him and he looks like the type of guy who would fight his way back. Urlacher has been practicing everyday since Monday but sat out today for precautionary measures. He is listed as probable.
Final Verdict: Will play
Rashard Mendenhall: In contract with the Wyoming Headhunters and Carolina Werewolves
Mendenhall has truly had an amazing recovery from a big injury. He has improved on his status slowly but surely. Mendenhall has practiced and showed quickness and cuts that left many Steeler players amazed and stunned. It may look like he will suit up but not really get meaningful action.
Final Verdict: Will play with no effect though.
James Harrison: In contract with the Singapore Slings and Colorado Screaming Eagles
This crazy, injury prone beast has been injured once again. His knee has been hurt and he didn't practice Thursday. Harrison is listed as questionable
Final Verdict: Will play with limited impact
Dustin Keller: In contract with the
Keller who is a steady consistent TE has been hurt from a hamstring injury this offseason. He practiced and looks like he is good to go. Keller has said"I'm pretty sure I'll be good to go".
Final Verdict: Will play with no set back
Arian Foster: In contract with the
With a new injury that just popped up today, Foster has hurt his knee. The Texans say that is minor which is a huge sigh of relieve to Foster owners as he is expected to be the #1 fantasy running back this year. Foster should be good to go and be very effective, just love this guy. Foster's official status is questionable but the Texans say it is minor.
Final Verdict: Will be good to go
Derrick Johnson: In contract with the
The stud LB Derrick Johnson who hurt his ankle in the final preseason game looks to be fine. He was a limited participant in practice but being there is already a good sign. He looks to be in great form and shape for this upcoming season. He is listed as questionable.
Final Verdict: Will Play
