Just when I start touting him as a nice sleeper pick at wide receiver in PPR leagues, Bobby Engram goes and injures his shoulder.
The Seahawks’ injury situation has gone from aggravating to roster altering, because leading receiver Bobby Engram will miss six to eight weeks with a cracked bone in his shoulder…
Engram, who caught a franchise-record 94 passes last season, was injured after making the first catch of the game in the team’s 34-17 victory against the Minnesota Vikings on Friday night. The injury will force the club to carry Engram on its 53-man roster even though he isn’t expected to play until the after the bye week Sept. 28.
I still like Engram, but instead of looking for him in the 8th or 9th round, start looking to draft him in the 10th-12th. He’s a pro, so he should settle back in as Matt Hasselbeck’s favorite target once he returns to action.
