For Bogut fantasy owners, this is bad news for a player who is having arguably the best season of his career. The 24-year-old former number one overall pick is averaging 16.1 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.44 blocks while shooting 56.5% from the field. Bogut has had a history of injuries so while this news isn’t horribly surprising, it is unfortunate for fantasy owners.

With Bogut sidelined, that will put even more pressure on rookie point guard Brandon Jennings. The good news for the Bucks is that Jennings has been absolutely amazing this season. He’s far and away the best rookie in the NBA and his potential seems to be limitless.

As far as who will gobble up the minutes at center in Milwaukee, it’ll probably be Dan Gadzuric. But the Bucks have a number of other veteran centers including Kurt Thomas and Francisco Elson.

For fantasy owners, this is devastating news. Brown was undervalued heading into fantasy drafts and has been a very consistent players so far this season.

Now the main running back on the Miami Dolphins will be Ricky Williams. The good news for the Dolphins is that Williams has arguably been the best backup running back in the NFL this season. He’s averaging a career-high 5.3 yards per carry and has 558 yards and six touchdowns.

If you had Brown, hopefully you handcuffed him with Williams. In that scenario, you’ll be able to start Williams from here on out. Williams has a very good chance to be a top 15 fantasy football running back the rest of the way.

A potential sleeper who may emerge is Lex Hilliard, a second year player who now becomes the backup running back. If you want to handcuff Williams, Hilliard would be your man.

Bowe will miss Week 11 against the Steelers, Week 12 against the Chargers, Week 13 against the Broncos and Week 14 against the Bills. Considering that many fantasy football leagues have their playoffs scheduled to begin in Week 14, this is devastating news in the fantasy world.

On the season, Bowe has 33 catches for 466 yards and 4 touchdowns. While he hasn’t quite lived up to expectations, he’s definitely a player who is capable of starting on a weekly basis.

Now the question is whether or not it makes sense to keep Bowe or to release him. The answer to that question depends on your specific fantasy football team. If you don’t have depth at wide receiver and you are likely to make the playoffs, keeping Bowe around makes sense. However, if you have wide receiver depth or you need a late season push to make the playoffs, it’d be best to cut ties with Bowe.

Who sees their stock improve due to this news? Chris Chambers. He’s a similar player and could become Matt Cassel’s main target when looking downfield.

For fantasy football owners, it would be tempting to believe the hype and go hard after Larry Johnson. But once you look at the situation closely, you’ll realize that Johnson shouldn’t hold much value right now.

First of all, Cedric Benson has been great for Cincinnati this season. As long as he’s healthy, he’ll get the vast majority of the carries. The Bengals also have Bernard Scott, a rookie running back who the team will want to keep in the mix.

Then, just look at what LJ did while on the Chiefs. When he was causing drama off the field, he was playing poorly on the field. He couldn’t fine the end zone and was averaging less than three yards per rush.

All in all, unless you want to handcuff Benson, Larry Johnson shouldn’t be on your fantasy football team. There are players out there with higher upsides who you can roster instead.

QB Chris Simms, Denver Broncos
Kyle Orton hurt his ankle and Chris Simms played the second half. Although he was bad, Simms has a decently high ceiling going forward. He has good receivers and a coach that seems to know what he’s doing.

RB Justin Forsett, Seattle Seahawks
Julius Jones has a broken rib that is causing bleeding in his lung. Justin Forsett, a fan favorite among Seahawks fans, will step in while Jones is out. This week he showed what he could do by totaling 123 rushing yards on only 17 attempts.

RB Jason Snelling, Atlanta Falcons
Michael Turner was injured in Week 10 and now the door looks to be open for Jason Snelling. He played well after Turner went out this week and has looked good all season. Pick him up if he’s available. If he isn’t, Jerious Norwood might be a sleeper to emerge here if Turner is out for an extended period of time.

RB Bernard Scott, Cincinnati Bengals
Cedric Benson had been enjoying a fantastic season before getting injured on Sunday. If he is going to miss any action, Bernard Scott will likely fill in. Scott doesn’t have a high ceiling but he’d be a solid plugin.

WR Maurice Stovall, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Bucs are facing a combination of injuries and poor performing players in their wide receiving corps. As it stands, Maurice Stovall may be the best option. He’s been good in the last two games and finished with four catches, 47 yards and a touchdown this week.

Bryant didn’t even make the trip to Miami so he’s definitely out for the game. Stylez G. White also failed to make the trip.

If you are looking for a fantasy football sleeper who may emerge due to the Antonio Bryant injury, consider Sammie Stroughter. Stroughter leads the Bucs wide receivers in catches and is coming off a game in which he had three receptions and a touchdown. In his last four outings, Stroughter has three catches in each game.

Starting his second game at quarterback will be rookie Josh Freeman. In his NFL debut, Freeman dazzled while leading Tampa Bay to their first win of the season. Along the way, he passed for three touchdowns.

As far as Bryant is concerned, it may be time to throw him on the waiver wire. He’s injured and he’s on a bad team — which is a bad combination for fantasy football.

C Andrew Bynum, Los Angeles Lakers
To begin the fantasy basketball season, Andrew Bynum has been amazing. He seems to be living up to his vast potential. That said, expect his numbers to come crashing back down to earth once Pau Gasol returns. Trade him now while he’s putting up superstar numbers.

PF Chris Bosh, Toronto Raptors
Yes, Chris Bosh is a great player. But he’s playing over his head at the moment. He’s averaging career-highs in points and points — and he hasn’t missed a three-pointer this season. Trade him before he cools off.

SF Richard Jefferson, San Antonio Spurs
In the last few games, Richard Jefferson has been very good. He’s putting up fantasy stats by the truck load. But once Tim Duncan and Tony Parker return from injury, expect Jefferson’s role to be diminished.

SG Ben Gordon, Detroit Pistons
Ben Gordon is yet another player that is seeing his stats boosted by missing stars. In Detroit, both Richard Hamilton and Tayshaun Prince have been sidelined — which has allowed Gordon to get off to a very good start.

PG Brandon Jennings, Milwaukee Bucks
In future years, Brandon Jennings will be a fantasy basketball stud. But even though he’s off to a very good start this season, remember that he’s a very young player who doesn’t have many games under his belt. He’ll be hitting the rookie wall and his value in fantasy basketball will plummet. Trade him prior to that point.

QB Chad Henne, Miami Dolphins
In recent weeks, Chad Henne has been quiet. However, he has faced tough opponents during that time frame. In Week 10, he’ll have a much easier go of it versus the Bucs.

RB Kolby Smith, Kansas City Chiefs
With Larry Johnson out of the picture, everyone is looking at Jamaal Charles. But those who watched closely last week saw that Kolby Smith could very well have a 50/50 split with Charles the rest of the way. Smith versus the Raiders this week could very well result in a TD.

WR Pierre Garcon, Indianapolis Colts
Pierre Garcon doesn’t have a touchdown since Week 3 but he could come up big this weekend against the Patriots. Anthony Gonzalez is still out and Austin Collie is banged up. That will lead to opportunities for Garcon.

TE Bo Scaife, Tennessee Titans
With Vince Young back in the helm for the Titans, it’s time to remember about Bo Scaife. Young likes throwing to Scaife and we could see a lot of that in Week 10 against the Bills.

PG Brandon Jennings, Milwaukee Bucks
Wow. Brandon Jennings has gone from a quiet season in Europe to a monster first few weeks in the NBA. He’s currently averaging 20.7 points and 5.2 assists in 32.7 minutes per game.

SG Stephen Curry, Golden State Warriors
Although he hasn’t been the scoring machine that he was billed as coming out of college, Stephen Curry is impressing with his all-around game. He’s hitting three-pointers and he’s averaging 5.4 assists to go with his 8.7 points.

SF Omri Casspi, Sacramento Kings
Omri Casspi has the makings of a fantasy basketball beast. He’s capable of scoring, hitting threes, grabbing rebounds and adding bonus tallies in blocks and steals.

PF DeJuan Blair, San Antonio Spurs
When DeJuan Blair gets minutes, he has produced. He’s scoring, rebounding and shooting for a high percentage so far in his young career.

C Taj Gibson, Chicago Bulls
A hustle player first and foremost, Taj Gibson can also score a little bit in addition to rebounding and blocking a few shots.

QB Alex Smith, San Francisco 49ers
Alex Smith struggled last week but he’s at least putting touchdowns on the board. Playing on Thursday this week, he’s a decent start versus the Bears. His long-term ceiling remains relatively high.

RB Ladell Betts, Washington Redskins
With Clinton Portis likely to miss Week 10, Ladell Betts is a quality start against the Broncos. He should get plenty of touches and he looks like he’s running well.

WR Chris Chambers, Kansas City Chiefs
After getting released from the Chargers, Chris Chambers got picked up by the Chiefs and scored two touchdowns just a few days later. Chambers has always been explosive — so there’s a chance he can really help your fantasy team down the stretch.

TE Anthony Fasano, Miami Dolphins
Following a very difficult start to the season, Anthony Fasano is starting to come around. In Week 10 of the 2009 fantasy football season, Fasano faces the Buccaneers at home — a very good start.
