Torry Holt or Marvin Harrison in a place like San Francisco, where the QB situation is majorly in-flux (as is the rest of the team)? I wouldn't touch them fantasy-wise. However, put either Holt or Harrison on a team like the Eagles, who already have an up-and-coming talent at WR (DeSean Jackson) a quality QB (Donovan McNabb) and a need for a veteran WR2 ... and I think there are big things in store. If the Eagles miss out on Boldin and other higher-end young WR opportunities (Braylon Edwards?), than I think that either Holt or Harrison could provide some really nice stats in Philly. They also could be sneaky-good on a team like the Giants depending on the Plaxico situation. Many people didn't give Corey Dillon much of a chance after he and his aging skill set left the Bengals several years ago, but he surprised many with some solid stats in New England. If, however, Dillon went to a team with a less-prominent situation, we probably never would have heard from him again. This is why I think that a player like Fred Taylor could be an interesting late-round pickup in larger fantasy leagues this summer.

Yes, they both relied on speed to break games open, but with a fresh start and in a new role, it's hard not to expect productive fantasy numbers from either of them. Jay-Mo,
