FOXBORO — Shane Vereen is the most versatile player the Patriots offense has.
While they have highly-touted players in Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman and Danny Amendola, no one player can more things than Vereen.
If Vereen stays healthy, he could put up some giant numbers this season — similar to dynamic running back Darren Sproles, now of the Eagles.
The 2011 second-round pick out of Cal has certainly showed some flashes of stardom, but he's yet to play a full season — playing in five, 13 and eight games respectively in his first three seasons in the league.
A 5-foot-10, 205 pounds, the running back's strength is catching passes out of the backfield – something he displayed Friday night, catching two touchdown passes in the Patriots' 30-7 win over the Panthers.
"I was just glad the offensive was able to string together a couple drives — string together some plays," said Vereen. "We kind of hurt ourselves a little bit, we still have a lot to work on, but it was good to get out there and develop some kind of rhythm."
On the first touchdown Vereen was able to showcase his speed, as after catching a short pass from Tom Brady out of the backfield, the running back took off up the right side bursting past members of the Panthers secondary for 40 yards and the first touchdown of the game.
"I was hoping — running that fast I definitely didn't want to get caught — I would hear it from everyone here in the locker room [if I did]," Vereen said.
His second touchdown came in the third quarter — also from Brady — a 6-yard quick out route from the backfield as he outstretched the ball just inside the pylon. At first it was ruled he was out of bounds inside the 1-yard line, but Bill Belichick challenged the play and it was overturned for his second touchdown of the game.
"I couldn't tell if I stepped out of bounce or not, but I tried like hell to get in there," Vereen said.
Vereen finished the game with 75 all-purpose yards — five catches for 57 yards and six rushes for 18 yards.
Plagued by injuries, last season was cut short when he broke his wrist in the first game of the season in Buffalo. He did return later in the season, but only played in eight total games — rushing for 208 yards and a touchdown, while catching 47 passes for 427 yards and three touchdowns. His rookie campaign was also shortened to five games due to a nagging hamstring injury.
Going off his numbers last season — if converted to a full 16-game season — Vereen would have finished with 416 yards on the ground and two touchdowns, while catching 94 balls for 854 yards and six touchdowns. Added up he would've had a 1,248 all-purpose yard season with eight total touchdowns.
In comparison, Sproles averaged 385.75 yards rushing in the four seasons he was able to play all 16 games and 517.25 yards receiving, while reaching the end zone six times a year in those year's spanning from 2008-2011. Vereens's 16-game numbers would have in fact turned out better than Sproles'.
"Honestly, I just go out and work on a lot of things in practice and whatever they ask me to do, I just go ahead and do a good job of that the game," Vereen said.
On the first touchdown Vereen scored Friday night, the Patriots featured a two-back set in the backfield with he and James White split behind Brady. With backs having tremendous speed it creates a nightmare for opposing linebackers and Brady was able to exploit it. It could be a formation featured a lot in the upcoming season, especially given the results Friday night.
"I think it's something that now defenses will need to prepare. It's something that we work on and I think it's something we'll be able to use to our advantage," said Vereen.
The fourth-year running back played the most snaps among the running back group, finishing with 28 snaps (including penalties). As demonstrated with past performance, if Vereen can stay on the field for a full season, he could be one of the best running back pass catchers in the game.
Like most members of the team, he isn't thinking of anything like that as he is focused on the team preparing itself for the games that matter.
"We have done some good things, but there is also a lot that we need to work on," he said. "You have to still take into account this is still the preseason and we still have some weeks to go until we get to the real thing. It's good to see some success, but we still have a long way to go."
FOXBORO — The Patriots topped the Panthers in the third preseason game for both teams Friday night at Gillette Stadium, 30-7.
FOXBORO — The Patriots topped the Panthers in the third preseason game for both teams Friday night at Gillette Stadium, 30-7.
Tom Brady ended up playing 41 snaps, and went 17-for-21 for 204 yards with a pair of touchdown passes as New England took a 13-0 lead at the half and never looked back.
New England also got eight catches for 99 yards from Julian Edelman, and eight carries for 28 yards from Stevan Ridley (who didn't put the ball on the ground). In addition, Shane Vereen had six carries for 18 yards, as well as five catches for 57 yards and a pair of receiving touchdowns, while linebacker Steve Beauharnais added an interception for the Patriots.
On the other side of the ball, Carolina quarterback Cam Newton went 8-for-12 for 88 yards in the loss.
Here are 10 things we learned about the Patriots Friday night:
Tom Brady had one of the best third preseason games of his career.
When you're measuring Brady's preseason stats, his work in the third preseason game of the 2010 season against the Rams remains the gold standard — that night at Gillette Stadium, he was 18-for-22 for 273 yards with three touchdowns in 30 snaps — but this one wasn't too far off. After a relatively slow start (and a brief sitdown in favor of Ryan Mallett — more on that shortly), Brady looked very sharp for the bulk of the evening. He wasn't sacked, and went on an impressive streak in the second quarter, where he was 9-for-11 for 116 yards and a touchdown. He got a bunch of pass-catchers involved in the action, but the bulk of his targets were directed toward Edelman and Vereen. So much of a receivers' success in the passing game can be traced back to winning the trust of Brady, and it's clear (at least on a night where the Patriots didn't have Rob Gronkowski) that the quarterback has the utmost faith in both Edelman and Vereen.
Bill Belichick always keeps his players on their toes.
The Patriots coach took everyone by surprise midway through the first half when he yanked Brady from the game and went with Mallett. Mallett helped put together a drive that ended with a 47-yard field goal from Stephen Gostkowski — which gave the Patriots a 3-0 lead — but Belichick went back to Brady on the following drive. Belichick has long used the preseason to sprung those type of surprises on his players, with the idea that you need to be mentally prepared to go into the game at a moments' notice. (In the 2006 preseason finale, he yanked Matt Cassel midway through the preseason finale and went to emergency quarterback Troy Brown for a series.) While every detail regarding the Patriots quarterback situation is under the microscope (Is Mallett the No. 2 quarterback? Where does this leave Jimmy Garoppolo?), this would appear to be a simple case of Belichick keeping Mallett on his toes.
Darrelle Revis is likely done for the summer.
The cornerback saw his first extended action with the Patriots, playing just about the entire first half and the first defensive series of the second half. By our unofficial count, he finished with 28 snaps, with 26 of them coming on the left side. He was thrown at three times by Carolina, and the Panthers completed one ball in his direction (a really impressive slant from Newton to rookie receiver Kelvin Benjamin) while another completion was nullified because of a penalty. On the preseason, we have him for 36 total snaps (33 on the left side and three on the right, with three balls in his direction and one completion. With the preseason finale set for next week against the Giants, it's likely the last time we'll see Revis before the regular season opener against the Dolphins in Miami.
We've said it before, and we'll say it again — Julian Edelman is poised to have a very good year.
Edelman has been in sync with Brady all summer long, and their connection was on display again Friday against the Panthers, as he made a series of impressive catches on a variety of routes, including on short, intermediate and deep balls. His highlight came when he and Brady hooked up on an impressive 35-yarder on the first drive of the second half down the seam for the Patriots. He played the bulk of the first three quarters, and caught all eight of his targets for eight receptions and 99 yards.
If he can stay healthy, Shane Vereen should also have a terrific year.
The four-year running back out of Cal, who has battled injuries over the course of his career, flashed some of his trademark speed out of the backfield on a second-quarter scoring play for the Patriots. Brady hit him on a short wheel route out of the backfield, and he was off to the races for a 40-yard touchdown. Almost impossible to catch when he gets into open space, the play was reminiscent of his catch-and-throw with Brady a couple of years ago against the Jets where he was matched up against a linebacker and he made New York pay. It's important to note that on that series, the Panthers were without their best coverage linebacker in Luke Kuechly, but still, it was an impressive sequence for Vereen. He was limited to eight games last year because of injury, but still managed to put up 44 rushes and 47 catches. If he can stay away from the injury bug, he certainly sets up to have a terrific 2014.
The punt team has shown some improvement over the last week.
With the offense stalled out early, the punt team got some work in in the early going, and looked much smoother than it did last week against the Eagles when they had a pair of botched sequences. Ryan Allen, who has been money all spring and summer, was able to connect on a series of nice drives Friday against the Panthers.
It was a big night for Chandler Jones and Rob Ninkovich.
The two end of the line defenders in Jones and Ninkovich had very good starts to their evening, as Ninkovich had a coverage sack on the first play from scrimmage and Jones added a pair of first-half sacks at the expense of Carolina left tackle Byron Bell. While some of it had to do with the work of the New England secondary providing good coverage on the Panthers' pass catchers — and leaving Newton with nowhere to go — the overpowering work of Jones off the edge has to be an encouraging sight when it comes to the Patriots, who would love to see Jones develop more consistency in his third year in the league.
There are still questions about who is going to start at center and right guard.
As expected, the Patriots utilized several different combinations along the offensive line. Some of it should be taken with a grain of salt because starting right tackle Sebastian Vollmer didn't play (Marcus Cannon got the start in his place), but the group looked mostly good against the Carolina defensive front. The starting offensive line, from right to left: Cannon, Jordan Devey, Ryan Wendell, Logan Mankins and Nate Solder. The Patriots shuffled Dan Connolly in at center for a sizable portion of the night, while Wendell was working with Garoppolo and the rest of the third-teamers late in the fourth quarter. The two positions that appear to be still up in the air at this point are center and right guard, with a combination of candidates for both jobs. A position that will certainly bear watching as the preseason comes to a close next week against the Giants.
Stephen Gostkowski is having a really good summer.
The kicker had an excellent training camp, and has had a very good preseason. He missed a 43-yarder and a 54-yarder in his first two games, but Friday against the Panthers, he connected on a 60-yarder at the end of the first half.
The kick return job is still up in the air.
Rookies James White and Roy Finch started as the kick returners, but New England didn't get much of a chance to work in the kick return game for the rest of the night, as the Panthers struggled to move the ball on offense, much less get it into the end zone. Belichick could still have a mystery candidate in mind for the job — after all, LeGarrette Blount had just one return in the preseason last year and ended up coming away with the regular-season gig — but it appears that the competition will come down to next week's preseason finale against the Giants in North Jersey.
FOXBORO — The night didn't start out smoothly for Tom Brady but by the end, his numbers spoke volumes as the Patriots starting quarterback had a productive night in the dress rehearsal for the regular season.
FOXBORO — The night didn't start out smoothly for Tom Brady but by the end, his numbers spoke volumes as the Patriots starting quarterback had a productive night in the dress rehearsal for the regular season.
Brady played five series, finishing 17-of-21 for 204 yards, with a pair of touchdown passes to Shane Vereen as the Patriots built a big lead on their way to a preseason win over the Carolina Panthers. Brady's quarterback rating was 138.9.
Brady looked a little shaky on his first two series, misfiring with Brandon LaFell on a third down pass and tripping and nearly fumbling a handoff to Shane Vereen on the next series. On the fumble, he appeared to be kneed in the back.
He came out of the game as Ryan Mallett got his only look of the night with the starting unit. Mallett led the Patriots down the field to a field goal.
Brady then played the next three series, including opening up the third quarter. Brady connected with Vereen on a perfectly executed wheel route down the right sideline for a 40-yard touchdown in the second quarter. On his final drive of the night, Brady connected with Julian Edelman on consecutive passes for gains of 18 and 35 yards, with the latter coming on a perfectly thrown ball over Edelman's right shoulder on a go route.
Brady capped off his drive by finding Vereen in the flat on a red zone route at the Panthers 4. Vereen turned his body and stretched for the pylon for the touchdown.
Brady is likely to sit out next Thursday night's preseason finale against the Giants at MetLife Stadium.
FOXBORO — The following Patriots players were not spotted on the field in full uniform prior to the Patriots-Panthers third preseason game Friday night: wide receiver Aaron Dobson, running backs Tyler Gaffney and Brandon Bolden, linebacker Cameron Gordon, tight ends Rob Gronkowski and Michael Hoomanawanui, offensive linemen Chris Jones, Bryan Stork and Sebastian Vollmer and defensive linemen Dominique Easley, Sealver Siliga and Chris Jones.

FOXBORO — As was the case last week, the Patriots will be playing a summer preseason game in very fall-like conditions as temperatures are expected to be in the low 70s with partly cloudy skies for the 7:30 p.m.
FOXBORO — As was the case last week, the Patriots will be playing a summer preseason game in very fall-like conditions as temperatures are expected to be in the low 70s with partly cloudy skies for the 7:30 p.m. kickoff against Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers.
There is no precipitation in the forecast, with a breeze expected out of the east at 10 MPH.
This is the game where Tom Brady, along with the rest of the Patriots starters, are expected to play at least the first half, barring any injury. Brady said this week he is looking forward to the picking up the tempo under all game conditions that are presented.
Linebacker Jerod Mayo, after missing last week for an unspecified reason, practiced this week and could get his first taste of preseason action.
Rob Gronkowski also took a step forward this week, joining in on 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 contact drills but is not expected to play. It would not be surprising to see the tight end skip the entire preseason and attempt to make his debut on opening day in Miami on Sept. 7, as he said this week was his intention.
Gronkowski and Mayo were among several Patriots taking part in pregame sideline-to-sideline sprints at 5 p.m. with trainer Jim Whelan and strength and conditioning coach Moses Cabrera, two and a half hours before kickoff. Also in the group of wind sprinters were Sebastian Vollmer and Dont'a Hightower.
The Vollmer sighting is significant, as he missed all three full practices this week and is likely to sit out the third game.
A few weeks back, before training camps opened, we took a look at fantasy value based on a player's average draft position. It's the best way to estimate what a player's price tag will be on draft day. Today I will update the prices of those players and I'll add a few new options as well. It seemed like a good idea with so many fantasy drafts taking place this weekend. The players from the original article have their prior ADP in parentheses, and the original analysis in italics, followed by the updated outlook.
As we like to do at Rotobahn, we'll be counting the values down from late selections to the early ones. A good journalist might call that burying the lead, but most fantasy footballers know the great players as well as the experts do. It's the deep part of the talent pool where you can gain a big competitive advantage.
Jim Hackett and I will get into some of these players in Friday's podcast and on the WEEI Fantasy Football Hour, so be sure to tune in. Our third show airs this Sunday at 7:30 a.m on 93.7.
For a look at our take on the top 500 fantasy options for 2014, head on over to Rotobahn, where you will also find scouting reports on over 60 rookies and projections for the upcoming season. Our cheat sheets are free, customizable and updated frequently.

ADP data was obtained at Fantasy Football Calculator.
Andrew Hawkins, WR, Browns — ADP 187 (224)
He's not being drafted at all in smaller leagues, and you can get him very late in large formats, as his ADP indicates. That's not bad for a player who could be the Browns' top receiver in 2014. Frankly, if he stays healthy, I can't see anybody else on the roster outplaying him. In fairness, that speaks to how underrated Hawkins currently is, but it also speaks to how woefully thin Cleveland is at receiver.
Update: The word is getting out. Hawkins has jumped up significantly, but he's still a solid value. He's the one receiver in Cleveland who can get open consistently.
Odell Beckham, Jr., Giants — ADP 184 (163)
Do not wait until 163 to draft this guy. Beckham, for whatever reason, is being ignored in fantasy circles and we think he's a potential WR3 in 12-team leagues. As we said in his Rotobahn scouting report, Beckham has perhaps the best hands we've seen since we scouted Michael Crabtree. He's also got all the skills you want a receiver to have, including outstanding agility and speed. He should fit right into the Giants offense and could be a fantasy force from Day 1. He's a steal at his current ADP.
Update: The rookie has been struggling since he injured his hamstring early on in camp. I have no choice but to downgrade Beckham, and I have. Guess what? He's still a nice upside pick at his old ADP and a potential steal at his new one. Do not let this guy go undrafted in large leagues. He could really pay off once he gets healthy.
Justin Hunter, WR, Titans — ADP 118 (159)
Hunter's ADP has risen about 10 spots over the last month … and he'll jump a bit more before most of us draft, but he still projects as a value this season. He should be ready to take a step forward in 2014, and with Kenny Britt now gone, Hunter's snap totals should more than double. We expect him to be a starter or an in-effect starter. He has a chance to post double-digit scores if things go well in Tennessee. Hunter is by far the most explosive athlete the Titans have on offense. He has WR1 upside in long-term leagues and has the upside to be a WR2 this year. He should be off the board somewhere around the 100 mark, in our opinion. He's a potential steal right now.
Update: This guy is ruining our little secret. He caught a pair of touchdown passes last week and has been making highlight-reel catches with regularity in camp. He's still a value, but be careful not to reach. I've seen Hunter going in the sixth round a few times and you are getting risk and value in equal measure if you invest at that level. Check out some of my other 2014 Breakout Players if you haven't already done so.
Aaron Dobson, WR, Patriots — ADP 171 (138)
This could change, and you may pay a bit more for him in this part of the country, but Dobson is a pretty solid WR3 option in 12-team leagues if he's healthy — and the news on his foot has been positive lately. If he's starting at split end, he's worth a pick closer to 100 overall, and he'd still have some upside there due to his touchdown potential.
Update: Dobson is the opposite of Hunter. The Patriots have been careful with him and that's led to no buzz and a declining ADP. I say take advantage of that. Dobson still has an excellent chance to be the main man at split end and he could make a run at double-digit touchdowns with that gig. He's a potential steal right now.
Marvin Jones, WR, Bengals — ADP 163 (129)
As with Hunter, Jones' ADP has risen a bit this summer and he'll move up another round, and perhaps more in the coming weeks, but we still like him at that price tag. He's a much more complete player than he gets credit for, and he should have no problem holding on to the starter's spot opposite A.J. Green. He looks like a borderline WR3 to us in 12-team leagues with upside to be more.
Update: Jones broke his foot and is out until roughly Week 5. He's still a player to target deep in large formats, but he is off the small league radar for now. Mohamed Sanu will hold down the fort opposite Green until Jones returns.
Martellus Bennett, TE, Bears — ADP 131 (141)
This guy's ADP is a bit mind-boggling to us. He's a stud talent in a great offense, and he's going to see single coverage all year long. Bennett is a big part of the passing game whether the Bears are between the 20s or in the red zone. We expect TE1 numbers if he stays healthy. At 141 overall, that's a great value. Heck, he's a value at 100.
Update: His ADP has dropped but his value has not. This is the guy to target if you plan on waiting out the run at tight end. He could easily score 10 times.
Kenny Stills, WR, Saints — ADP 130 (122)
Stills played an amazing 61 percent of the Saints' offensive snaps as a rookie in 2013, and that number is expected to rise in 2014. We'd be shocked if Stills wasn't a WR3-caliber performer in 12-team leagues, and he has some upside if you draft him at that level. People still are underestimating how good the former Oklahoma Sooner is. If you can draft Stills any time after 100 players have been taken, you are getting a very nice value. We expect his ADP to rise a bit more, and we'll be keeping tabs on him in camp. Our original scouting report on Stills is worth a look if you are not all that familiar with him.
Update: Stills has missed some time with a quad injury but he projects to be full-go for Week 1. He's one of the better values out there as far as I am concerned. No way can teams deal with Stills once they deploy the resources required to slow down Jimmy Graham and rookie Brandin Cooks. He's a WR3 at WR5 prices.
Russell Wilson, QB, Seahawks — ADP 121 (118)
Are you kidding me? I'm blown away by this one. People obviously are concerned about Seattle's receivers, but Wilson is getting a healthy Percy Harvin back, which more than makes up for the loss of Golden Tate. We also love the Seahawks' draft. We are very high on both Paul Richardson and Kevin Norwood. Both could pay immediate dividends. There are currently 14 quarterbacks getting taken ahead of Wilson, and while we can make an argument for all of them, we would rather point out that taking Russell Wilson as your QB1 at 118 or thereabouts is highway robbery and a great way to play the QB position this season. We think he's an utter steal anywhere after Round 8 in 12-team leagues. This is why you wait on QBs, folks.
Update: I have stolen Wilson more times than I can count. Waiting for the likes of Wilson, Colin Kaepernick and Jay Cutler is good business in 2014.
Tavon Austin, WR, Rams — 113 (111)
There's some risk here, which is why a player with Austin's absurd talent is available this late. This is an example of fantasy GMs overadjusting to a rookie who performed like a rookie. If you can draft Austin anywhere near his ADP as your fourth or fifth receiver, I think it's well worth the risk. I'd be shocked if he didn't improve on last year's numbers.
Update: He's still there for the taking. While he's not a high-priority pick at his ADP, he's got plenty of upside, especially in PPR formats. If he slips a round or two, he's a potential steal.
Khiry Robinson, RB, Saints — ADP 124 (100)
Robinson could be a huge value when you look at the composition of the Saints backfield going into 2014. With Darren Sproles gone to Philadelphia, we see a shift coming. We think you'll see more power running and play-action with the usual affinity for the screen game. While we still expect Pierre Thomas to have some PPR value, we see a regression from his 2013 numbers. With both Kenny Stills and rookie Brandin Cooks, the Saints will be able to get back to taking big shots downfield off of the power run game and out of their spread formations. On the ground, we expect the Saints to rely heavily on both Robinson and Mark Ingram, but Ingram's injury history makes Robinson the more appealing fantasy option. He's a potential steal at 100 overall. Robinson could evolve into a RB2 option in 12-team leagues as the season progresses, but I anticipate flex value in 12-team leagues early on.
Update: His ADP has dropped due to the impressive preseason performance of Ingram. This is not shocking, as Ingram is a good back in his own right. That said, he's still got a shaky injury history and you now can steal Robinson in Round 11. If I am looking for a running back at that stage of a draft, I will be very happy to roster Robinson.
Kyle Rudolph, TE, Vikings — ADP 90 (99)
He can be your starter in any format and most any league size, and you can usually get him in the ninth round. That's good value for a Norv Turner tight end with talent in abundance. I think we know all the names at this point. The point is that Turner's tight ends tend to have big years, and we expect a TE1-level campaign from Rudolph unless he gets hurt.
Update: His price tag now is the eighth round, and I am more than willing to pay that price if I need a tight end at that juncture. Rudolph is screaming "breakout" right now.
Eric Decker, WR, Jets — ADP 96 (93)
The disrespect visited on this player is reaching epic proportions. How many touchdowns does a guy need to score to earn some fantasy love? Do people forget that Decker scored eight times while catching passes from Tim Tebow? Decker is not just a product of Peyton Manning. Getting Decker anywhere near his current ADP is theft — pure and simple. He's going to be the Jets' most targeted receiver and he'll have fantasy value by sheer attrition. Take the former Bronco as your WR3 and enjoy the rewards.
Update: The dissing continues. Decker's been somewhat quiet during preseason as the Jets keep him healthy and desperately search for a player who can play on the other side of the formation. This guy is a lock No. 1 on his own team. It might not be all peaches and cream because the Jets are a work in progress, to be kind, but he is going to see the ball. He's a very solid WR3 with WR2 potential if the Jets play decent ball. I've been snatching him up in the seventh round with regularity.
Colin Kaepernick, QB, 49ers — ADP 99 (89)
Read the tea leaves, folks. The 49ers muddied the waters at most of their skill positions with the additions of Stevie Johnson, Bruce Ellington and Carlos Hyde. While that throws a stick in the spokes of us fantasy GMs, it's all good for Kaepernick's value. This year's model can easily play without Michael Crabtree, Frank Gore or Vernon Davis if need be. They have the depth. CK currently is the 11th QB being taken, and that makes him a stellar value in any league. Right now he is the other QB to wait on in addition to Russell Wilson. We like Jay Cutler, too, and a few others, but with Wilson and Kaepernick, you get youth and healthy track records in addition to great scoring potential.
Update: He's an even bigger steal than he was before camp. I'm not sure what games people are watching, but I am even higher on Kaepernick now after seeing how deep Frisco is at the skill positions. In the words of Vinz Clortho, "Yes, have some."
Terrance West, RB, Browns — ADP 94 (86)
This one requires a small leap of faith, but I plan on taking that leap in a few drafts this year if West's ADP stays roughly where it is. I spent a few minutes with the Towson star at this year's combine and I was impressed with his businesslike attitude. He was a player with a clear idea of what he needs to do to get where he wants to be. Since I spoke with West, he was drafted by Cleveland, and that means he'll be running in Kyle Shanahan's zone scheme. I like the fit, and with starter Ben Tate's injury history, I am looking at West very seriously as a Round 8 investment. You can get a good look at West in his Rotobahn scouting report.
Update: Ben Tate is looking like the starter, but Tate's injury history and the Browns' intent to be run-heavy lead me to believe in West's value as a flex option in 12-team leagues. I'm scooping him up at his current ADP. And, if Tate misses time, West has big upside.
Tom Brady, QB, Patriots — ADP 64 (74)
Brady was not far off the QB1 pace in 2013, and that was with just about everything going wrong. If you get 16 games out of Rob Gronkowski, I think Brady can be a top-six quarterback. The Patriots retained his most trusted option from 2013 in Julian Edelman, and I like Aaron Dobson's potential on the outside if his foot proves to be 100 percent by the start of training camp. With the departure of LeGarrette Blount, we see fewer games being dominated by the run and more games with Brady being Brady. I see a bounceback year for fantasy purposes and a nice value if you can get him around his ADP.
Update: He's moved up as new information on Gronkowski's status has been largely positive. I'm not targeting Brady at this level with all the depth at the position. Your best move is to let one of your local buddies overdraft Tommy Hall of Fame while you wait for value.
Michael Floyd, WR, Cardinals — ADP 53 (57)
This one is a head-scratcher for sure. Floyd has already arrived, folks. He was one of our 2013 breakout candidates. He also plays in an improving offense that should provide him more scoring chances than he saw in 2013. I'm getting Floyd consistently in the fifth round in 12-team drafts, and that's insane value by our math. We think he has WR1 upside this season and a WR3 floor barring injury. Take him anywhere after Round 3 in 12-team leagues as your WR2 and you will have done well.
Update: Floyd is still a great value and still one of my primary targets in Round 4 of drafts or even Round 5 if I get lucky. Draft this man.
Chris Johnson, RB, Jets — ADP 60 (52)
If you draft Johnson at his ADP, you are getting a running back who finished in the top 12 in most scoring systems in 2013 despite playing all four NFC West teams. In 2014 the Jets get the NFC North, which is more favorable, to put things mildly. When I reviewed Johnson's 2013 film, he was still a very fast back. As a Jet, Johnson will yield some snaps and a good portion of goal-line duties to Chris Ivory, but that's nothing new to Johnson, who has never made his bones by racking up a lot of short touchdowns. The now-tight-fisted Jets paid him a lot of money, especially when you look at what free agent backs were paid in 2013. They didn't shell out big bucks for Chris Ivory insurance, folks. Johnson is going to get the ball. He has RB1 potential in 12-team leagues.
Update: The pundits already have held Chris Johnson's funeral, but the guy is very much alive. In fact, the Jets are paying him a lot more than any other back on their roster, and new GM John Idzik is tight-fisted with cap space, to put it mildly. Johnson's in a committee, but he should be the main man and the Jets are looking a lot more creative with Johnson than the Titans were over the last several seasons. Johnson's a value at his current ADP in all formats. There's no need to reach for him. He'll usually fall to you in the late fifth or early sixth.
C.J. Spiller, RB, Bills — ADP 35 (31)
People are understandably concerned after Spiller's rough 2013, which was marred by a high-ankle sprain. Making matters worse was the Bills' total mismanagement of that injury. No way would we risk a first-rounder on Spiller after watching the Bills last season, but we are very happy to take him in Round 3 as an RB2 with high-end RB1 upside. It's a no-brainer from a risk standpoint — the kind of pick that can win you a league. We're loving Spiller at his current ADP in all formats.
Update: While I love Spiller's talents, I am beginning to have doubts about Doug Marrone's coaching staff and play-calling. They lack imagination, and you need it in Spiller's case. I am willing to take Spiller at his ADP, but he's no longer a big value unless the Bills are playing possum. From what I see, Buffalo's backfield is going be a committee again, and that would take Spiller's RB1 upside away. Temper expectations a bit.
Andre Ellington, RB, Arizona — ADP 29 (30)
We have Ellington rated nine spots higher and we actually project him to produce RB1 numbers in PPR leagues if he can stay healthy. Ellington has a hammer lock on a big role in an improving offense. His offensive line will be significantly better in 2014 and his snap total conceivably could double in comparison to his rookie campaign. If he's available at 30 overall, I am definitely looking to draft Ellington. He was one of our underrated rookies in 2013. Check out his original Rotobahn scouting report.
Update: Ellington is holding steady and so is his value. HC Bruce Arians seems very committed to him as the primary running back. He should have increased value in PPR formats.
Doug Martin, RB, Buccaneers — ADP 26 (24)
He was a first-round pick in a lot of leagues last year and his season ended early due to a shoulder injury. Martin should be 100 percent for 2014, and we are not as concerned about the competition in his backfield as the general public seems to be. Martin still should be the primary goal-line option and should get the majority of the carries. He could see a diminished role on third downs, but he was never an every-down back in the first place. According to Football Outsiders, Martin played 78 percent of the snaps in his rookie season. I suspect that he'll play nearly that much in 2014 if he stays healthy. Right now in most drafts you can get him as your RB2 with the last pick of the second round. Not bad at all.
Update: Martin's ADP has dropped while his value has gone up. Rookie Charles Sims is out for a few months and that should lock Martin in for a large portion of the offensive snaps. He's a very nice target late in Round 2.
DeMarco Murray, RB, Cowboys — ADP 13 (15)
We have Murray ranked well inside the first round, so we think you are getting a steal if you can draft him at his current ADP. Murray will get the ball a ton in all phases of the game and he's now running behind a very solid offensive line. If your league uses PPR scoring, that only increases Murray's value. He caught a healthy 53 balls in 2013 and that number could actually increase in 2014 with new passing game coordinator Scott Linehan running the show.
Update: Word is getting out, but Murray still is a back to target if you are drafting near the end of Round 1.
Now that I've updated the early list, I thought it would only be fair to offer up a few more values. After all, we've lost a few in the last month to changing ADP, injury and other factors. Here are seven new names to consider at various points on the draft board.
Latavius Murray, RB, Raiders — ADP 258
The second year back out of UCF is going undrafted in a lot of leagues, but he should definitely be rostered in 12-team formats with typical bench size. Rotobahn was high on Murray when he was drafted by Oakland in 2013. Check out his original scouting report.
Mohamed Sanu, WR, Bengals — ADP 215
His ADP is rising and it will continue to do so. I've seen Sanu going in the 170s in a some drafts I've been in. He'll start for the injured Marvin Jones for at least the first three games. So, he's only a short-term fix, but if you are loaded with young receivers, he can be an outstanding way to bridge the gap for a few weeks. Horses for courses.
Travis Kelce, TE, Chiefs — ADP 160
Kelce is one of the best sources of upside at the tight end position if you are looking late in a draft. He should be aired with a more stable option if possible, but Kelce has the potential to a season-long solution if he can block well enough to stay on the field. His big play ability is already there. Let's face it, the Chiefs are desperate for weapons in the passing game. They can't afford to waste this kid.
Marqise Lee, WR, Jaguars — ADP 155
He could end up being Jacksonville's No. 1 option in the passing game, and that would give him solid WR3 status. I am all over Lee at his current ADP. If you've never seen him play, check out his Rotobahn scouting report.
Jordan Matthews, WR, Eagles — ADP 136
If you play in a savvy league, he won't last this long. While I am not a big fan of drafting rookie receivers in redraft formats, Matthews is a player who can give you WR3 production at WR5 prices. It may not happen right out of the gate, but he has the potential to be the Eagles' top target by year's end. Check out Matthews' scouting report if you don't know his game well.
Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Panthers — ADP 97
The first-rounder out of Florida State is going to be the No. 1 receiver in Carolina this season. At least the Panthers will make every effort to establish him as such. When you look at Benjamin's physicality and Cam Newton's ability to keep plays alive and make any throw known to man, you have to like the rookie's upside at 97 overall. He's worth the risk. Take a look at Benjamin's scouting report if you are unfamiliar with his game.
Trent Richardson, RB, Colts — ADP 61
I can understand the trepidation to go all-in on a player who struggled so much in 2013, but taking a back with a starting job in the fifth round is not going all-in. He's the goal-line back and lead back on a team that will move the ball and score points. He may not have RB1 upside running behind the Colts' offensive line, but if he can just finish in the top 20, he's a good value at his ADP.

Second nature is seeing the world through a client's eyes
Secondments are not immediately profitable, but they benefit customer and law firm, says Sharon Wallach Customers often need someone to handle legal matters full-time. secondments allow both sides to benefit, says Sharon Wallach
Wednesday 15 February 1995
Typically, "secondees" are assistant solicitors with two to eight years' post-qualification experience. But in one case at least, a managing partner is undergoing the experience. John Rink, of Allen & Overy, is spending part of his working time as acting head of the legal department at British Aerospace. He is backed up by another Allen & Overy partner, seconded full-time.
According to Martin Pexton, the firm's personnel director, around 20 of Allen & Overy's 280 assistant solicitors in the London office are currently on secondment.
The process carries several benefits, he says. "From the individuals' perspective, it provides a completely different outlook on work. It also helps them, and the firm, understand what the client wants, and it strengthens links with that client."
It could be argued that there is an element of exploitation in the arrangement; that the client is getting the same service at bargain prices.
"It doesn't usually work that way," Mr Pexton says, "The pattern is of a specific slot that needs filling for a time, for example at British Aerospace. If we did feel that the client was looking for cheap legal advice, we would resist and look at our level of charging."
But Charles Dodson, joint managing partner at Lovell White Durrant, is in no doubt that secondment is exploitative. He says that the past two or three years have seen a greater demand by companies for secondees, driven in part by the same cost considerations as their lawyers.
"Clients see it as a neat way of solving the problem," he says. "It is obviously cheaper than if they were billing the firm. But we place a huge emphasis on what the client wants. The advantage from our point of view is that it helps in cementing relationships. And it is giving our lawyers a chance to see the whole business from the other side of the fence, and increases their commercial awareness."
Clifford Chance has operated a formal programme of secondment for about 10 years. Greater efficiency is the key, according to Stuart Popham, the managing partner of the firm's banking and securities group. "We find it very useful to have lawyers with experience and a greater understanding of the client's business, both generically and of the particular institution," he says. "It helps the client to use our services more efficiently, and we get to know his individual demands. It gives us greater command of forward-planning and an easy access point. All in all it creates a better relationship."
One risk that goes with seconding valuable fee-earners is their defection to the client. Mr Popham admits to losing two or three lawyers in recent years, although in the first half-dozen years of the firm's secondment programme, no one decamped.
"Without exception our lawyers enjoy secondment," he says. "Some are confirmed in their desire to stay at Clifford Chance, others use the time to discover whether they do want to work in banking, for instance." Secondment is also used for pro bono assignments - work at a law centre, for example - for training, or for the advancement of international practice.
"One of our major objectives is the entire management of major transactions in foreign jurisdictions," says Charles Dodson of Lovells. "In some jurisdictions we can meet that demand by clients, but in others, where we have no offices, such as Germany or Spain, we need to have very close links with local law firms, so that we can satisfy the client that things will run smoothly. It is absolutely crucial that our firm is one entity - secondments play an important role in ensuring that happens."
Bruce Westbrook, a partner in the oil and gas sector at Cameron Markby Hewitt, describes his firm's use of secondment in terms of providing the client with what he wants.
"At the beginning of the Nineties, work was not raining in to law firms as it did in the Eighties," he says. "We have to work harder to look for clients, get alongside them, and deliver what they want in a way that is convenient to them - that is, to reach out to them."
Cameron Markby opened an office in Aberdeen two years ago, "purely and simply to be available on the spot to oil companies and contractors.
"A good number of large companies there have legal departments that get overstretched from time to time," Mr Westbrook says. "Part of our remit is to provide an overflow service, either on a one-off basis or with specialist skills not available in-house. We found that the client was saying: `We would like to have someone dedicated to us for three months.'
"Seconding people provides us with a very valuable way of discovering how the client works, how he uses lawyers, what areas we need to gear up for the future. Secondment is useful. It is not instantly profitable, although it provides a contracted income, but it fosters relationships with clients and helps us build our business."

A new national campaign called "It Can Wait" was recently launched to prevent young people from texting while driving. But it turns out that it's not just teenagers who are texting while driving.

Flemings to launch money purchase pensions
Saturday 26 August 1995
Flemings, the investment bank, is planning to set up a new subsidiary, Flemings Life, and launch a new range of money purchase pensions schemes, with the investments managed by Flemings. They will be targeted at large and medium-sized companies that offer employees pensions based on final salaries.
A series of roadshows to promote the concept of money purchase pension plans to pension consultants has been arranged for next month.
The new schemes are not intended to replace final salary schemes, and employers will be expected to contribute alongside their employees to company money purchase schemes, unlike most personal portable pension schemes where employers rarely contribute.
Money purchase schemes account for well under 10 per cent of all company pension plans, in contrast to the US where they are the norm. But the trend in the UK is expected to grow rapidly. Many companies are nervous about the prospective cost of financing final salary-related schemes, and complying with the requirements of the new pensions legislation.
Prudent employers are expected to introduce money purchase schemes for younger employees who can then take the accumulated funds away with them whenever they change jobs, and maintain final salary schemes for longer- serving employees.
Some are already said to be considering closing their final salary schemes to new entrants or running final salary and money purchase schemes in parallel, and restricting membership of the final salary scheme to long- serving employees with 10-15 years' service or aged at least 35.
Others are considering a mixture of final salary pensions paying perhaps 1/120 of final salary for each year of service, or half the current average benefit, to underpin a supplementary money purchase scheme.
