Exit Julis Jones. Enter Felix Jones.  I guess Dallas has a thing for the last name Jones, don't they Jerry?  Felix will serve as a nice change of pace back for the Cowboys this season as he backs up the more punishing starter Marion Barber.  Coach Wade Phillips has also dubbed Jones as his kick returner in Week One which shows his coach has faith in him this season.  He is definitely quick, no doubt.

Ted Ginn, Jr., WR (Miami Dolphins):

He should be Pennington's favorite target this season.  With his value recently increasing due to Derek Hagen's performance during the preseason.  Greg Camarillo as been dubbed the starter alongside Ginn to replace Hagen.  Ginn should also return kicks and punts for the Dolphins this season.  Also, keep an eye out during Week one against the Jets with Justin Miller missing the game as rookie Dwight Lowery will have to attempt to contain Ginn.

I am kicking myself for missing out on Ginn in both leagues I am in, I think he is in for a big year.  I was one year early when I spot started him last season, I will pay for not owning him now.

Ray Rice, RB (Baltimore Ravens):

Ray Rice should see plenty of snaps early and often for the Baltimore Ravens behind banged up Willis McGahee.  In fact, I would go as far to say that they will split carries for the most part.  McGahee is coming off knee surgery and should barely sneak in as the Week one starter though I will doubt they will put a big load on him when he does play, which is why Rice should have his opportunities this season.


Well there you have it, a few players to keep an eye on.  I don't want you getting mad at me if you heed my advice and a player doesn't come through, but please feel free to compliment me when a player goes off for you.
