Antonio Bryant entered the 2009 season as a potential go-to receiver for fantasy owners.á He set career highs in receptions (83), yards (1,248) and touchdowns (7) in 2008, but injuries have certainly put a damper on any potential upside.
After missing Weeks 9 and 10, Bryant returned last week to little fanfare.á He had three catches for 40 yards, but was also the second-most targeted receiver on the team with six ...

Yesterday, Topps released its All-Star Rookie team for 2009 and while there were some justified selections and some questionable ones, the player that has the most intrigue for me is Mets C Omir Santos. He beat out phenom Matt Wieters, who most thought would be in contention to take home the Rookie of the Year award in the American League.
