Joshua Palmer News
Sunday, August 23, 11:55 AM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer looks a lot different now that last year's knee and ankle problems are behind him. Palmer managed only 22 catches for 303 yards in 12 games during his first season in Buffalo, then missed the playoffs after never really getting healthy again. This summer has gone much better. He caught two deep balls from Josh Allen on August 11, made a tough back-shoulder grab during the August 18 open practice and stayed hot against Cleveland two days later. Palmer came down with a covered touchdown in the red zone during the joint practice and connected with Allen again in seven-on-seven work. Buffalo has said his camp has put him in good position to earn a top-three receiver role, though there is still competition for those snaps. Palmer hasn't won anything yet. He has at least looked like the healthy downfield threat the Bills thought they were getting a year ago. RotoBaller has him 258th overall in PPR, which leaves him firmly in late-round territory if he carries this momentum into September.

Elijah Sarratt News
Tuesday, August 25, 9:14 AM
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Elijah Sarratt still has plenty of bodies ahead of him, but the fourth-round rookie has helped himself this summer. Sarratt caught six of seven targets for 66 yards in the preseason opener against Philadelphia, leading Baltimore in catches and receiving yards before losing a fumble in the second half. The follow-up against Minnesota was much quieter, just one catch for three yards, though he also flashed during the joint practices by shaking a Vikings defender in one-on-ones. Baltimore took Sarratt 115th overall after he scored an FBS-leading 15 receiving touchdowns at Indiana last season. Getting onto the field regularly is the hard part. Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman are locked in as starters, with Devontez Walker and fellow rookie Ja'Kobi Lane currently ahead of Sarratt on the depth chart. RotoBaller has him 308th overall and WR116. That keeps him out of normal redraft plans, but Sarratt has done enough this summer to improve his standing as a deep-league stash.
