Elam follows DC Ryan to Dallas: ESPNDallas reported Wednesday that the Cowboys have come to an agreement with free agent safety Abram Elam. Terms of the one-year deal were not disclosed. Elam had a career-high two interceptions last season with the Browns to go along with 7 tackles. Dallas' new defensive coordinator Rob Ryan coached him for the last two seasons in Cleveland.

Fantasy Analysis
Elam played his first NFL season with Dallas in 2006, but he was mainly a reserve defensive back and special teams player. He departed for the Jets before a two-year stint in Cleveland -- his best seasons as a pro. Elam should be in line to start in Dallas opposite Gerald Sensabaugh, as 2010 starter Alan Ball is likely to move from free safety to cornerback. Elam should be able to put up solid numbers once again in 2011, so he's worth a late-round pick in IDP Fantasy formats. (Updated 08/04/2011).
