The Houston Texans signed RB Deji Karim (Colts) Tuesday, May 14. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Our View: Karim runs with a low center of gravity and can change direction without losing much speed. He gives the Texans veteran depth behind Arian Foster and
Ben Tate, plus he can help out on special teams.

Ben Tate - Texans expecting more from RB Tate
Source: The Huddle
Houston Texans head coach Gary Kubiak said the team expects a lot more from RB
Ben Tate next season.
Tate struggled with injuries and finished with 279 yards this past season.
Huddle Up: The numbers for the Houston running game were down as a whole, and Tate played a major role in that as his yards fell from 942 to 279. He needs to be more of a factor to keep starter Arian Foster fresher.

Texans HC Gary Kubiak says he expects 'a lot more' out of RB Ben Tate
Source: Fantasy Football Toolbox
Ben Tate's successful 2011 campaign was all but forgotten by the time his injury-marred 2012 season was complete. He was limited to just 11 games and 279 rushing yards because of toe and hamstring injuries. That's why Texans head coach Gary Kubiak said Tuesday that he is expecting quot;a lot more" out of
Tate in his fourth season. FANTASY ANALYSIS: The hamstring pull cropped up just as
Tate was getting over his toe injury, and you could sense through the media that Kubiak was getting a little frustrated with Tate's inability to stay on the field. Don't forget that he also broke his ankle as a rookie during the 2010 preseason. If
Tate can remain healthy, he has proven that he can be a very useful bye-week fill-in, or a flex starter in more

The NFL Playoffs are now set after 17 grueling weeks of play! There are a ton of story lines to follow. Among the more intriguing are three rookie quarterbacks, one of whom is guaranteed to win a playoff game in their first year; a second year quarterback who took over in week ten; a Colt’s team who went from worst last year to a playoff team this year, riding an emotional high after the return of their head coach from a successful bout against leukemia; and a team that went from the favorite for a first round bye to the number three seed in a few short weeks.
These are the overall rankings for the playoffs. Some formats require you to choose from all the teams in the playoffs, others allow you to go week to week. These

Perhaps the dumbest thing a fantasy manager can possibly do is publish player ranks on a mainstream sports site on the morning of a draft. Definitely not recommended. Poor strategy, requiring a special combination of stupidity and hubris. Far from ideal.
Nonetheless, I'm doing it today. My first fantasy playoff draft is coming up in just a few short hours, and I'm publishing ranks in advance. (Again: Unwise). Obviously I'd prefer to post this thing much later in the afternoon, after the draft, but my schedule is pretty jammed.

In a year where quarterbacks were consistently front page news, most rushing attacks took a back seat, further damaging the position's once sterling reputation. Though new points sources emerged (e.g. Alfred Morris, Doug Martin and Trent Richardson) and Adrian Peterson, less than a year from major reconstructive knee surgery, posted the greatest single season, regardless of position, in NFL history, RBs collectively suffered yet again. Just 12 rushers averaged 12.0 fantasy points or better, down from 16 in 2012 and 17 in 2011. Suffice it to say, with certified workhorses the lone exception, RB remains a position in transition. Below is our recap of this season's RB

Texans HC Gary Kubiak revealed that RB Arian Foster was pulled from Sunday's game with an irregular heartbeat. Kubiak added that Foster was "doing fine," and that he was taken out as a precaution. It'll still be a situation to monitor though. Owners playing in Week 17 should add RB Ben Tate. With their loss to Minnesota on Sunday, the Texans still need to win next weekend's game against the Colts to clinch the #1 seed in the AFC.

Texans HC Gary Kubiak says RB Ben Tate is "close" to regaining the #2 spot on the depth chart. He looked 100% healthy against the Patriots on Monday night, rushing 8 times for 46 yards. If RB Arian Foster went down -- or if Houston decides to rest him in Week 17 -- Tate would be a better fantasy play than RB Justin Forsett.

Ben Tate (hamstring) is close to returning from his hamstring injury.
Our View: The team is unlikely to cut the touches for Foster until they play in week 17 (if at all).
Tate is a handcuff option for Foster owners, but Justin Forsett will also get worked into the rotation as well. In case of a Foster injury we think
Tate could carry most of the load with Forsett serving as a change of pace.

Again, these are not Week 14 ranks . . . they're Week 14-16 ranks. You probably know the drill by now, gamer.
One assumption I'm making with this exercise: I don't think Shady McCoy plays again in 2012. I also don't think there's anything fluky about Bryce Brown: he's quick, he's powerful, and he's making things work despite a patchwork Philadelphia offensive line. He needs to get a hold on the fumbling problem, but otherwise, he's

Houston Texans RB
Ben Tate (hamstring) went through a hard workout Tuesday, Nov. 20, to help establish his availability for Week 12.
Huddle Up: This is more important to Arian Foster's workload than anything. The workhorse is on pace for 398 carries right now while averaging just 3.8 YPC, foreboding for his future production. Tate's return would mean a lighter workload for Foster; the sooner, the better for Houston's lead back.
