New Faces In the Land of the NFL

There are a few new faces you should be looking at in the NFL, because they are making statements. You fantasy players may want to pay attention here: Mike Furrey (WR) Detroit Lions and Maurice Jones-Drew (RB) Jacksonville Jaguars.
Now I'm not much for the double last name, but Jones-Drew is built like Barry Sanders, runs like Marshall Faulk, and moves like Walter Payton. Yes, I said it, and I've seen this kid's moves. Take last week for example; that 51-yard catch for a TD was smooth.
Furrey, on the other hand, is starting to be Kitna's new favorite target, and is making a name for himself in Detroit Lions fans' notebooks. He has already been heavily talked about over the past 2 weeks on the sports stations and ESPN. Heck, Jim Rome has even taken notice of him. He reminds me a lot of an old Bronco receiver -- Mr. Ed McCaffrey.
So for those of you who havent seen or heard of them, now you have -- and I'm sure you'll be watching for them. And if you have them in your fantasy leagues, I'm sure you'll be starting them real soon.
