Redskins cut Sellers

News: The Redskins announced Monday that they have released fullback Mike Sellers. In his 11 seasons with the Redskins, Sellers played in 164 games with 56 starts, compiling 158 rushing yards on 50 attempts and 1,022 receiving yards on 116 receptions and 19 total touchdowns. Sellers played in 12 games in 2011. He finished the season with one reception for 15 yards.
Analysis: See if Sellers can catch on with another NFL team in 2012, but he has minimal Fantasy value as a blocking fullback. Ignore him in all leagues on Draft Day.

Sellers injures elbow Week 14

News: Redskins RB Mike Sellers injured his elbow on a punt return in the second quarter of Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Patriots. Sellers could not return to the game. Sellers is mostly a blocking back for the Redskins and is a key member of the special teams.
Analysis: Sellers doesn't run the ball for Washington and is used mostly as a blocker for the running game. Sellers can be ignored in most Fantasy league's heading into Week 15, healthy or not.

Mike Sellers

Sellers limited on Friday

News: Redskins RB Mike Sellers (calf) was limited in practice on Friday and is listed as questionable for Week 16 against the Jaguars. Sellers has 19 receptions for 215 yards on the season.
Analysis: Sellers doesn't run the ball for Washington but can make a couple catches per game. However, he has only caught more than two passes in a game once this season and has yet to find the end zone. Sellers can be ignored in most Fantasy league's heading into Week 16.

Mike Sellers

Sellers makes 27-yard reception

News: Washington RB Mike Sellers caught a 27-yard pass from Rex Grossman in the Week 15 loss at Dallas. Sellers went wide on wheel route and caught a pass in stride down the sideline after Grossman had been rushed by the defense.
Analysis: Sellers catches the occasional pass but does nothing in the running game for Washington. He has no Fantasy value heading into Week 16 at Jacksonville.

12/12/2010

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers goes for 28 yards receiving

News: Washington RB Mike Sellers got involved in the passing game late in the Week 14 loss to Tampa Bay. Sellers ended up with two catches for 28 yards and a long catch of 25 yards. He was targeted three times by QB Donovan McNabb.
Analysis: Sellers doesn't run the ball for Washington but can make a couple catches per game. Still, his value doesn't extend to use in Fantasy formats because he doesn't do anything consistently enough. Ignore him heading into Week 15 in Dallas.

11/16/2010

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

One catch for Sellers in Week 10

News: Redskins RB Mike Sellers did not carry the ball at all in Week 10 against the Eagles but was able to get involved in the passing game. He had one catch for 28 yards in the 59-28 loss.
Analysis: As a fullback, Sellers rarely touches the ball and does not pose much Fantasy value at this point. Continue to ignore the 35-year-old in all formats heading into Week 11 against the Titans.

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers in a walking boot

News: FB Mike Sellers left Chicago wearing a walking boot, despite playing the entire game. Coach Mike Shanahan said he's not sure how badly Sellars is hurt and won't have an update until practice resumes Wednesday.
Analysis: Sellers doesn't put up enough stats to warrant Fantasy use. Keep him off of rosters, especially while he's hurt.

10/24/2010

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers makes 15-yard catch

News: Washington FB Mike Sellers caught one pass in the Week 7 win at Chicago. Sellers' reception went for 15 yards. He was targeted three times by QB Donovan McNabb.
Analysis: Sellers is the blocking back for the Redskins and has minimal Fantasy value. He can come down with a catch or two per game, but does not see carries and poses no threat to realistically score. Ignore him for Week 8 at Detroit.

10/10/2010

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers has one catch

News: Redskins FB Mike Sellers had one catch for 22 yards Sunday against the Packers in Week 5. He had three targets in the game.
Analysis: Sellers is the blocking back for the Redskins and has minimal Fantasy value. Don't expect him to do much on a weekly basis, and ignore him in all leagues in Week 6 against the Colts.

Mike Sellers

Sellers makes box score

News: Washington RB Mike Sellers barely made an impact in Week 3 against St. Louis. He had one carry for 1 yard and caught both passes thrown his way for 10 yards -- despite his longest reception going for 11 yards.
Analysis: Sellers is primarily a blocking fullback and won't get many looks for the Redskins. At this time he isn't worth owning in Fantasy leagues heading into Week 4 when the team travels to Philly.

9/20/2010

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers makes minimal contribution

News: Redskins FB Mike Sellers had four receptions for 38 yards in Week 2 against the Texans. Sellers longest catch went for 22 yards and he was targeted six times in the 30-27 loss to Houston. He also ran the ball once for no gain.
Analysis: Sellers is the blocking fullback for the Redskins. While he might catch a few passes a game out of the back field, Sellers will likely not get enough consistent touches to make a Fantasy impact. We don't recommend using him in Week 3 against the Rams.

Mike Sellers

Sellers performs agility drills

News: Washington FB Mike Sellers (knee) performed agility drills while teammates practiced Sunday morning. Sellers has said he won't miss any games; if he has to, the Redskins would lose a powerful lead blocker. He left the team's preseason game vs. the Ravens last Saturday with a left knee injury when was rolled up from behind on a running play.
Analysis: Sellers is not a major Fantasy weapon because most of his value to the team comes as a blocker. Fantasy owners won't get much use out of him. Still, Sellers is an important part of the Redskins' offense and should not miss any regular-season time.

8/28/2010

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers unable to play

News: Redskins RB Mike Sellers (knee) was inactive for Friday's preseason game at the Jets, as expected. He left the team's preseason game vs. the Ravens last Saturday with a left knee injury when was rolled up from behind on a running play.
Analysis: Sellers said after getting hurt that he would be alright, but no official timetable has been given. He should be fine for the start of the season, but Fantasy owners won't get much use out of him. He sees most of his action as a blocker.

Mike Sellers

Knee sidelines FB Sellers

News: Redskins fullback Mike Sellers left the team's preseason game vs. the Ravens Saturday with a left knee injury when was rolled up from behind on a running play. Sellers said his knee was sore, but that he would be "all right."
Analysis: Sellers' status is up in the air, but Fantasy owners shouldn't be too concerned since Sellers has never had more than 43 touches in any of his 11 seasons. He does much more as a blocker than anything else. Keep him off of rosters.

Mike Sellers

Sellers scores touchdown Week 17

News: Washington RB Mike Sellers sniffed the end zone in the Week 17 season-finale loss at San Diego. Sellers made three receptions for 12 yards and hooked up with Jason Campbell in the 2nd quarter for a 3-yard TD.
Analysis: Sellers set a new career high for receiving yards in 2009 and finished with two touchdowns after the one Week 17. The Redskins don’t want to use him this much offensively; it just so happened they didn’t have a very good season. Sellers shouldn’t produce as much next year if Washington can right the ship and we don’t believe he should be targeted on Draft Day 2010.

Mike Sellers

Three don't stat for Redskins

News: Redskins FB Mike Sellers, WR Marko Mitchell and QB Todd Collins didn't record offensive statistics Week 16 vs. Dallas even though they played in the game and were active.
Analysis: None of these players ever makes a worthwhile contribution in Fantasy. Leave them on waivers for Week 17 at San Diego.

12/22/2009

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers goes without stats on MNF

News: Washington FB Mike Sellers did not touch the ball on Monday night in Week 15 during an embarrassing loss to the Giants.
Analysis: Sellers was inactive in Week 14 and spent time on the injury list this week before being active for the Giants. He did nothing and rarely factors into the offense enough for Fantasy owners to care about him. Leave him on waivers for Week 16 at home against Dallas on Sunday night.

Mike Sellers

Redskins list Week 14 inactives

News: The Redskins' list of inactives for Week 14 at Oakland includes DL Albert Haynesworth, DB DeAngelo Hall, RB Mike Sellers, LB Alvin Bowen, DL Renaldo Wynn and QB Richard Bartel.
Analysis: None of the players listed here has significant Fantasy appeal. Leave them all on waivers.

12/10/2009

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers ruled out Sunday

News: Redskins FB Mike Sellers (severe thigh bruise) has been ruled out for the game Sunday at Oakland.
Analysis: Sellers has minimal Fantasy value when healthy. Ignore him in most leagues even when active.

12/7/2009

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS

Mike Sellers

Sellers spends night in hospital

News: The Washington Times reports that Redskins FB Mike Sellers was taken to the hospital Sunday night because of a thigh bruise that had compartmental syndrome -- where blood builds up and it has to be drained. Sellers spent Sunday night at the hospital, and coach Jim Zorn isn't sure he'll be ready to go for the Raiders game in Week 14. "If I know Mike he'll try to make it back," Zorn said. "We'll just have to watch it."
Analysis: Sellers has minimal Fantasy value when healthy. Keep an eye on his progress, but don't plan on using him in Week 14 against the Raiders.

Mike Sellers, RB, WAS Sellers fumble costs Redskins game

Sellers fumble costs Redskins game

News: Washington RB Mike Sellers caught two passes for 17 yards in the Week 13 loss to the Saints. He directly contributed to the loss as he fumbled after making a catch in the overtime period. The fumble led to Garrett Hartley's game-winning 18-yard field goal.
Analysis: Sellers had that ridiculous touchdown catch from punter Hunter Smith in Week 10 against Denver but has otherwise done nothing this season. He has no Fantasy value for Week 14 at Oakland.

Mike Sellers

Sellers makes 1 grab Week 12

News: Redskins RB Mike Sellers caught one pass for 12 yards in Week 12 as the Redskins lost at Philly.
Analysis: Sellers had that ridiculous touchdown catch from punter Hunter Smith in Week 10 against Denver but has otherwise done nothing this season. He has no Fantasy value for Week 13 against the Saints.

Mike Sellers

Sellers makes one reception

News: Washington RB Mike Sellers made one reception for 7 yards in the Week 11 loss at Dallas.
Analysis: Sellers had that ridiculous touchdown catch from punter Hunter Smith in Week 10 against Denver but has otherwise done nothing this season. He has no Fantasy value for Week 12 at Philadelphia.

Mike Sellers

Sellers has crazy 35-yard TD grab

News: Washington RB Mike Sellers made one catch for 35 yards and a touchdown in the Week 10 win over Denver. And what a play it was. The Redskins were lining up to kick a field goal when they called an audible to punt. Instead of punting, the team faked and punter Hunter Smith lofted a pass across the field to an open Sellers, who ran the rest of the way for the score.
Analysis: This was the play of the game for the Redskins on Sunday in the win but it doesn't improve Sellers' Fantasy value any. He should still be left on waivers in all leagues for Week 11 at Dallas.

Mike Sellers

Sellers leads 'Skins in receiving

News: Washington saw fullback Mike Sellers lead them in receiving in Week 9 in a loss at Atlanta. Sellers used a 47-yard reception as most of his yardage as he finished with three grabs for 56 yards.
Analysis: Sellers has 93 yards receiving on the season on nine receptions and doesn't figure much in the running game. He can still be ignored Week 10 against Denver.
