St. Louis Rams WR Donnie Avery suffered a serious knee injury this evening in his preseason game with the Patriots. Given the nature of the injury, I'm pretty sure he tore his ACL.
Fantasy Impact: Immediately remove Avery as a WR5 candidate, and re-focus a potential WR5 candidate to Laurent Robinson instead. Robinson has the talent to be a true #1 WR at the NFL level, but much like Avery, he's suffered a number of injuries in his short career. Like I mentioned in my draft guide, a rookie QB isn't the best news for WR fantasy value, but someone has to step up, and Robinson has the most talent on the team. He's a good end-game flier.
