QuarterbacksMatthew Stafford (DET)--The Lions had a small scare when Stafford exited last Saturday’s game with an injury to his non-throwing hand. He line up with the first team at practice on Monday with no signs of casting on his injured hand. Expect Stafford to play in Thursday’s game against the Bills and he should not drop down the rankings after this injury.Michael Vick (PHI)--Vick practiced for the second straight day on Monday and continues to make progress in his recovery from a rib injury suffered in last week against the Patriots. Vick is starting to slip down the draft boards with his most recent injury, which means he could be a great value pick this season if he can stay healthy. He is listed as probable for the start of the regular season but will not play in the Eagles preseason finale as a precaution. Running BacksJonathan Stewart (CAR)--Stewart was carted off the field in Sunday’s game against the Jets after suffering an ankle injury in the second quarter. Stewart is considered questionable to start the regular season and has already been ruled out for Thursday’s game against the Steelers. If Stewart is unable to go in Week 1 DeAngelo Williams will get the workload for the Panthers which will give him the upper hand in the committee-backfield.BenJarvus Green-Ellis (CIN)--The Bengals have yet to see much preseason action this year due to a foot injury and is questionable for this week’s game against the Colts as well as the start of the regular season. The injury does not appear to be too serious since he has been on the field in full pads for practice. It appears the Bengals are taking a precautionary approach with Green-Ellis so expect him to be on the field come Week 1.Trent Richardson (CLE)--Reports out of Browns camp reveal that Richardson is recovery well from arthroscopic knee surgery and the team is very optimistic that he will be ready for Week 1 against the Eagles. With this latest news Richardson should start to climb back into first-round status as he once was before the injury. I would not be surprised either way with his status for Week 1, but at least the news is encouraging for those who already drafted.Ronnie Hillman (DEN)--Hillman was limited through the first few weeks due to a hamstring injury, but was able to make his preseason debut on Sunday rushing the ball 10 times for 29 yards against the 49ers. Hillman suffered the injury in the beginning of training camp and the injury was too much for him to get on the field, which led to Willis McGahee taking total control of the Broncos backfield. Hillman is expected to be active for Week 1, but will get limited carries with McGahee getting the bulk of the workload.Kevin Smith (DET)--Smith left Saturday’s preseason game with an ankle injury but it does not appear to be serious. The Lions are already down Jahvid Best, who won’t be available until after Week 8 when he is able to come off of the PUP list, so they really need Smith to be ready for the season opener. He is listed as questionable for Thursday’s game against the Bills, but will likely be rested to prevent an injury before the start of the regular season.Adrian Peterson (MIN)--On Monday, Peterson was able to participate in contact during practice for the first time this preseason. This is a move in the right direction, but Peterson should not be expected to get eh full workload once the regular season begins. He is already ruled out for the Vikings preseason finale and should be handcuffed by Toby Gerhart if you are willing to take the gamble on Peterson moving forward.Ahmad Bradshaw (NYG)--Bradshaw once gain finds himself in the training room, this time with a bruised right hand. The injury does not appear to be serious, but with the emergence of David Wilson this preseason he will have to push through the pain or else he is going to fall behind. Bradshaw is questionable for Wednesday’s game against the Patriots and if he doesn’t play he will continue to fall down draft boards.Ryan Mathews (SD)--Mathews is currently recovery from right shoulder surgery and received good news from a recent checkup. He was cleared to start doing upper-body workouts, and has already been performing leg workouts so this is a good sign. He is questionable for the start of the regular season, but he feels he will be ready. You can never take a player’s were when dealing with injuries, but the fact he is so confident is a step in the right direction. Wide ReceiversSteve Smith (CAR)--Smith is currently suffering from infection in his foot and it looks likes he will be able to play in the regular season opener. On Tuesday Smith was walking around the training facility and acknowledged that he feels he is going to be ready. He will miss the last preseason game, but it won’t matter too much since he already has great chemistry with second-year quarterback Cam Newton.Miles Austin (DAL)--The Cowboys hope to have Austin back for the start of the regular season and it appears they will get their wish. Austin will not play in the Cowboys final preseason game against the Dolphins on Wednesday but he said he will be ready for the season opener. Austin is currently suffering from a hamstring injury and will need to prove himself after playing only 10 games last season. He has fallen down draft boards this season and has turned into a solid value pick if he can stay off of the injury report. Austin Collie (IND)--Collie suffered his third concussion in two years last season and is expected to be cleared to resume football activities next week. He is listed as questionable for the start of the regular season but if he isn’t cleared next week he will likely miss Week 1. Collie is a low-end No. 3 wide receiver this season in standard leagues and if he returns to action he could be a great target for rookie quarterback Andrew Luck.Hakeem Nicks (NYG)--Nicks was not expected to play until the regular season after suffering from a broken foot, but claims he is going to play against the patriots on Wednesday. The Giants have yet to make a decision on his availability for the game, but it is a good sign he feels he is healthy enough to play in the preseason finale. He will be needed this season as the Giants will be without Mario Mannigham and Jake Ballard, so Nicks could see an increased role in the offense.Santonio Holmes (NYJ)--The Jets offense has looked terrible this preseason and Holmes hasn’t been much better. He played in his first preseason game on Sunday night against the Panthers finishing with just one catch for eight yards. Holmes is still suffering from back, rib and hamstring injuries but will likely be ready for Week 1. Tight EndsJermaine Gresham (CIN)--Gresham is listed as questionable for this week’s preseason finale against the Colts after suffering a knee injury in the Bengals game against the Packers. He was forced the leave the game, but the injury is not considered to be serious. Gresham finished with six touchdowns in 2011 and if healthy he could be a sleeper pick at the tight end position in the later rounds if he can stay healthy. Jermichael Finley (GB)--The Packers have many weapons in their offensive attack, but they will likely be without Finley for their final preseason game on Thursday. He is currently suffering from a quad injury, but he will be missing the game because of the birth on his newborn child. The injury does not appear to be serious, but Finley has fallen down draft boards after failing to live up to expectations the last few seasons.
