| News: The Jets signed RB Musa Smith to a contract on Tuesday, padding their depth at running back. Smith previously spent five seasons with the Ravens.

In his lone start, Smith had 22 carries for 83 yards and a touchdown. | Analysis: Smith is expected to compete for a spot along the depth chart, but that's about it. Ignore him in Fantasy play for now. |

Musa Smith enters free agency
|
Updated 1/18/2008 |
| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: Ravens RB Musa Smith enters the offseason as a free agent, and he will look to get increased carries somewhere. Smith, who started the final game of 2007 with Willis McGahee (ribs) out, finished the season with 75 carries for 264 yards and two touchdowns and 27 catches for 192 yards. In his lone start against Pittsburgh, Smith had 22 carries for 83 yards and a touchdown. | Analysis: Smith was a capable backup to McGahee, but he wants to be a starter in the NFL. Look for Smith to remain a backup somewhere, but his carries will likely increase wherever he lands. Go into the offseason with Smith as a No. 4 Fantasy RB with the chance to see his value increase depending on where he lands. |

M. Smith gains 83 in first start

| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: Ravens RB Musa Smith, making his first NFL start, carried 22 times for 83 yards Week 17 against the Steelers, scoring a touchdown on a two-yard run in the first quarter. He also caught three passes for eight yards. | Analysis: Smith averaged under four yards per carry this season, so it's not like he convinced some NFL team to steal him away and him its starter. He'll enter 2008 as a low-end reserve again and will likely go undrafted in Fantasy. |
 Musa Smith will start Week 17
|
Updated 12/27/2007 |
| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: With Ravens starting RB Willis McGahee out with cracked ribs and backup Mike Anderson nursing a hamstring injury, Musa Smith will make his first NFL start Week 17 against the Steelers, according to The Sports Xchange. | Analysis: Smith has handled 53 carries this season, averaging 3.4 yards per carry. That rate won't set the world on fire, but with so many iffy backfield situations across the NFL over the season's final week, it has the potential to make an impact if attached to an assured number of touches. Snatch Smith up off waivers if you have a hole in your backfield for Week 17. |

RB Smith runs seven times

| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: Ravens RB Musa Smith split carries with RB Mike Anderson during a Week 16 loss to the Seahawks after Willis McGahee went down with a rib injury in the first quarter. Smith finished with seven carries for 25 yards, including a long gain of eight yards. He also had two catches for 12 yards. | Analysis: Smith was getting about 4-6 carries per game even when McGahee was in the lineup. He now has 22 carries for 95 yards in four December games. There is a chance he starts Week 17 against the Steelers because of McGahee's injury, but even if that happens, he is nothing more than a desperation Fantasy option. |

| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: Ravens backup RB Musa Smith ran for 39 yards on five carries and caught one pass for 29 yards in Baltimore's 22-16 loss to the Dolphins in Week 15. | Analysis: Smith is one of the better backup RBs in the NFL, but he's only worth using as insurance for Willis McGahee owners. Do not start him in Week 16 against the Seahawks. |

|
Updated 12/10/2007 |
| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: Ravens RB Musa Smith had four carries for seven yards and one catch for one Week 14 against the Colts. | Analysis: Smith doesn't see enough touches on a week-to-week basis to serve as anything more than injury insurance in Fantasy. Willis McGahee owners might grab him, but everyone else can leave him on waivers for Week 15 at Miami. |

| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: Ravens RB Musa Smith went nowhere on the ground Week 12 against the Chargers. He had three rushes for minus-3 yards. However, he did experience more success through the air, catching four passes for 28 yards. | Analysis: Willis McGahee has been relatively injury-free this season and Smith continues to wait in the wings for his chance to carry the load. Smith is nothing more than a Fantasy reserve heading into Week 13 against the Patriots. |

M. Smith has two catches
|
Updated 11/18/2007 |
| Musa Smith, RB BAL | |
| News: Ravens RB Musa Smith had one carry for 7 yards and two catches for 3 yards Sunday against Cleveland. | Analysis: Smith is the No. 2 RB for the Ravens and should only be used if something happens to Willis McGahee. For now, consider Smith a low-end Fantasy option since McGahee is healthy. |
