Ravens RB Willis McGahee has been one of the most frustrating fantasy options in recent memory, so forgive my trepidation when he told the Baltimore Sun that he’s completely healthy and ready to challenge Ray Rice for the No. 1 spot in Baltimore.

Looking for the most in-depth and up-to-date information for your fantasy football draft? NFL.com has everything you need to dominate your league, including Michael Fabiano’s updated running back rankings.

Ravens offensive coordinator Cam Cameron cleared the air on his team’s backfield situation. As Michael Fabiano writes, his explanation is certain to give fantasy owners headaches.

Fantasy footballers need to remember the name of RB Ray Rice when it comes time to draft. Rice has been running with the first-team offense and is currently ahead of Willis McGahee on the Ravens’ depth chart. McGahee had been limited in workouts because of an arthroscopic procedure on his knee, but he’s getting closer to 100 percent. “I don’t feel anything in my knee,” McGahee told the Baltimore Sun. “It was just getting it stronger and ready to break long runs and make great blocks.” McGahee also said he doesn’t expect to pass Rice anytime soon. “It wouldn’t be right,” McGahee said. “I don’t mind. Work is work. That’s either with the first, second or third.” While this backfield […]

Ravens RB Willis McGahee, who was released from a hospital in Pittsburgh early this morning and returned to Baltimore, is expected to make a complete recovery from head and neck injuries.

Ravens RB Willis McGahee was carted off the field late in Sunday’s AFC Championship Game after Pittsburgh Steelers S Ryan Clark hit him hard in the helmet. The Ravens said McGahee had “significant neck pain” but movement in his arms and legs. Clark also needed help from Steelers staffers to make it to the sideline.

Ray Rice is out again, meaning that Le’Ron McClain and Willis McGahee will share carries. Hey, it worked out last week against Dallas. Receiver Derrick Mason did not practice this week, but is active and will start. Safety Ed Reed, as expected, will start.

The Ravens put away the Cowboys on Thursday night with two memorable fourth quarter touchdown runs — of 77 and 82 yards — that were the longest allowed in the history of Texas Stadium.

DeAngelo Williams just scored his third 1-yard touchdown of the afternoon in what’s become a great game in Green Bay. While his yardage total (75 scrimmage) isn’t great, his three scores will make Williams a top fantasy scorer once again.

Todd Heap just scored his second touchdown of the afternoon (and the season), this one on a 14-yard pass from Troy Smith. Heap now has five catches for 58 yards and the two scores.

Mike Shanahan is one of the most feared coaches in fantasy football because of the running back by committee. He might have competition with Ravens coach John Harbaugh.

Ray Rice, not Willis McGahee, started for the Ravens in their game against Houston. Also, Daunte Culpepper got the start for the Lions. He threw an interception in his first offensive series.

Tyler Thigpen just scored on a 37-yard pass from Mark Bradley. Thigpen lined up as a wide receiver and hauled in the pass from Bradley on a trick play. The Coastal Carolina product now has two scores in the first half in what is becoming a blowout over the Buccaneers. Unreal.

In a move that was rumored this week, Tim Hightower got the start ahead of Edgerrin James. The rookie is a great fantasy sleeper against the Rams. Ray Rice started ahead of Willis McGahee, but these two backs are expected to share carries against the Browns. Le’Ron McClain will also see some work out of the backfield.

Browns: WR Donte’ Stallworth, FB Lawrence Vickers, LB Beau Bell, TE Martin Rucker, G Scott Young, S Hamza Abdullah and QB Ken Dorsey (3rd).
