No rookies starting for San Fran it looks like Josh Morgan will be the third or fourth WR

I expect him to get almost as many touches as Fargas per game from the start. But Fargas is definitely the workhorse right now.

Roscoe Parrish is out 4-6 weeks with a thumb injury, I'm guessing the same thing that happened to Colston.
This means a big hurt for the Bills, as he just had one of his better games as a receiver and is one of the most dangerous returners in the league, but it also means a lot more time for rookies.
- Leodis McKelvin now should become the primary punt returner.
- James Hardy should be the full-on #3 WR now and play a lot more snaps.
- Steve Johnson also could become active on gamedays now, and could find time rotating in with Justin Jenkins or Fred Jackson in 4- or 5-receiver sets.

Rivers has been our starting WILL since day one and he has been pretty darn good thus far. I think his holdout hurt him a little bit but he has gotten rave reviews. He was pretty much invisible during the Giants game though. He has made plenty of plays in the run game and I'm waiting to see him make a big play while in coverage. We do take him out a lot on third downs which I never really understood. Brandon Johnson has been great though.

They might not have as many rookies starting for them as KC or Miami, but considering how good the Broncos offense has been it's nice to see three rookies (Ryan Clady, Peyton Hillis and Eddie Royal) getting significant playing time for them.

Jarod Mayo has been a beast for the Pats, talk about a steal they get landing a top 10 pick, and he looks incredible so far, making an impact alot sooner then I thought he would.

Matt Ryan: Not playing like a rookie. Will be a top QB in the future.
Sam Baker: Was playing very very well until he got hurt. Has had to sit out 2 halves and a full game. Hope he gets better.
Curtis Lofton: Great run stopper. Needs to get better in passing situations so he can be a 3 down LB.
Harry Douglas: Plays very quick and makes some nice grabs, but is very prone to rookie mistakes such as crucial drops.

I give massive props to these players also.
Antoine Cason has been playing like a veteran as the NB, although he hasn't had a 4th quarter turnover in two whole games now. Very disappointing.

Cason blows. I cant believe he dropped so much. Its pathetic how much teams value talent over just being able to flat out play football.
