Jesse James working on red zone drills with Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jesse James spent a considerable amount of time working with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger on connecting in the red zone at spring practices.

What It Means:

Big Ben "consistently targeted James in the end zone" at OTAs and minicamp, and it was "100 percent by design" as a teaching point for the 23-year-old tight end to be more aggressive in the end zone. James saw 62 targets a year ago but could earn more after the release of free-agent whiff Ladarius Green.

Our models project James for 429 receiving yards and 2.66 touchdowns on 43 catches in 2017.

Raiders, Derek Carr finalizing long-term extension

Oakland Raiders and quarterback Derek Carr are nearing a long-term extension that would pay out an estimated $25 million per year, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

What It Means:

Carr is entering the final year of his rookie contract, but the two sides appear all but finished with a deal that could make the Raiders quarterback the highest-paid player at his position.

According to our database, Carr's 116.03 net expected points ranked eighth among all quarterbacks in 2016. We project him for 4,228 yards, 28 touchdowns and 13 interceptions in the upcoming NFL season.

T. Gurley RB

Todd Gurley working well with Rams' offensive line

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley and the offensive line were more on the same page at OTAs and minicamp, left guard Rodger Saffold said.

What It Means:

Right guard Jamon Brown said after the season that Gurley and the line "have to get back on the same page" in 2017 after Gurley struggled badly last season. Saffold suggested Gurley was diagnosing the play at different speeds than the offensive line, sometimes just being too quick into his runs.

Our models project Gurley to bounce back in 2017, with 1,032 rushing yards and 8.52 touchdowns on 271 carries. We believe he'll add 273 receiving yards and 0.40 touchdowns on 39 catches to boot.

Eric Decker's deal with Titans worth up to $5.35 million

New Tennessee Titans wide receiver Eric Decker has signed a one-year deal worth up to $5.35 million in 2017, according USA Today's Tom Pelissero.

What It Means:

Decker's salary is just $1.35 million for the year, but he could earn up to $1.5 million in incentives in addition to his $2.5 million signing bonus. Either way, that's at least a $1.15 million pay cut from the $6.5 million the wideout was set to make with his former team, the New York Jets.

Our models like Decker to finish this year with 74 receptions, 950 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns. As for his 133 projected fantasy points, that would lead the Titans' receiving core in 2017.

Chad Williams will open 2017 season as Cardinals' fifth receiver

Arizona Cardinals third-round rookie wide receiver Chad Williams will open the year as the fifth wideout, 98.7 Arizona's Mike Jurecki expects.

What It Means:

That's behind Larry Fitzgerald, John Brown, J.J. Nelson, and Jaron Brown. Williams is an intriguing prospect at 6'1", 207 pounds with 4.43 speed. Fitzgerald talked Williams up at OTAs, but Williams is going to find it tough to make a 2017 impact if everyone is healthy.

Our models project Nelson for 352 receiving yards and 3.04 touchdowns on 21 catches this year as Arizona's third receiver.

D. Harris LB

Patriots sign David Harris to two-year deal

The New England Patriots and free agent linebacker David Harris have agreed to a two-year, $5 million contract, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

What It Means:

Harris was released by the New York Jets on June 6th. In the company of a solid linebacking core, Harris will have to compete for playing time in New England.

In 10 seasons in the league, Harris has tallied 708 tackles, 35 sacks and 10 forced fumbles across 147 starts and 154 career games.
