Rams | RB Mason has slimmed down Mon Jun 22, 09:10 PM
Joe Lyons, from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, reports that St. Louis Rams second-year running back Tre Mason has lost weight this offseason. He's down to between 195 and 200 pounds in an effort to help improve his speed. Mason will spend the next month or so working alongside cornerback and teammate Janoris Jenkins with trainer Tony Villiani at XPE Sports in Florida.
Footballguys view: The Rams selected potential superstar running back Todd Gurley in the first round of the 2015 NFL draft--even after Mason turned in a solid rookie season in 2014. Mason should begin the season as the starter as Gurley has yet to practice this offseason as he continues to rehab the knee injury he suffered last year in college at Georgia. Once Gurley is healthy, expect the Rams to ease himi into the lineup and start chipping away at Mason's touches. |

Rams | Only first 2 years of Gurley's contract guaranteed Sun Jun 21, 08:46 PM
Ben Volin, from the Boston Globe, reports that only the first two years of St. Louis Rams rookie RB Todd Gurley's contract are guaranteed. If the Rams cut him because of his preexisting knee injury, then the final two years of his contract are void. That's an unusually structured deal given that Gurley was a premium pick in the 2015 NFL draft.
Footballguys view: The Rams had to protect themselves due to Gurley's knee injury, and that's what they did with this contract. Gurley has superstar potential if healthy, and he's betting on himself by signing this deal. He could start the season on the PUP list, and the Rams may have to start Tre Mason at the beginning of the year. When healthy, Gurley could be eased into the starting role. His ADP of RB24 (5.05) in 12-team PPR leagues seems a bit optimistic for a player who has yet to practice this offseason. We LOVE Gurley, but proceed with caution until we know more about his injury status. |

Buffalo Bills QB Thaddeus Lewis and WR Tori Gurley had miscommunications on three occasions Tuesday, July 22, resulting in two incomplete passes and an interception. Joe Buscaglia of WGR 550 Sports Radio believes that if Lewis doesn't show better command of the offense that QB Jeff Tuel will land the backup QB job.

Bills | Sign Tori Gurley Sat Jul 19, 10:35 AM
The Buffalo Bills signed WR Tori Gurley (Browns) Saturday, July 19. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
Footballguys view: The Bills get a camp body here. Gurley has bounced around to several different teams after entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2011 with the Green Bay Packers. He's big and has good ball-tracking ability, but he's a longshot to make the final roster with the Bills. |

The Cleveland Browns signed WR Tori Gurley, DB T.J. Heath, DE Cam Henderson, DB Jamoris Slaughter, LB Justin Staples, WR Conner Vernon and OL Jeremiah Warren to futures contracts Monday, Dec. 30.
Footballguys view: Fantasy owners in super deep dynasty leagues should keep an eye on Vernon here. The rookie from Duke knows how to get open on the outside or as a slot receiver. He's developed as a route runner, and he does a good job fighting for extra yards after the catch. |

Browns | One signed, one cut Thu May 23, 09:18 AM
The Cleveland Browns signed free-agent WR Tori Gurley (Ravens) and waived QB Thaddeus Lewis.
Footballguys view: Lewis was merely a camp arm and became expendable when the team added Brian Hoyer in free agency. Gurley has a good size/speed combination but will find it tough to crack the final roster in Cleveland. |

Ravens | Tori Gurley waived Mon May 13, 03:51 PM
The Baltimore Ravens have waived WR Tori Gurley.
Footballguys view: Gurley was a player some were holding onto in super deep dynasty leagues. He was always an interesting player when he was with the Packers on their practice squad because of his size/speed combination. Green Bay released him in August of 2012 and he bounced around to four different teams (Vikings, Raiders, Buccaneers, Chargers) last season. The Ravens signed Gurley to a one-year $405,000 contract January 3, 2013. He may latch on with some other team as a camp body. |

Packers | Tori Gurley showing well in camp Tue Jul 31, 10:59 PM
Green Bay Packers WR Tori Gurley is making plays in the red zone during training camp. He is part of a deep receiver corps for the Packers, but he is trying to force his way into the mix for a job. He is still raw, and getting separation might be a problem for Gurley. However, no other receiver in camp boasts his combination of height (6-foot-4), weight and long arms. Gurley added 14 pounds to his frame during the offseason, and he used a regimen of boxing, basketball and weightlifting to improve.
Footballguys view: Gurley isn't like any other receiver on the roster with his big frame and blockout ability in the red zone. He could force the Packers to carry six wide receivers. If they try to stash him on the practice squad, he'll surely be signed by another team, although Gurley chose to stay on the Packers farm team when that happened last year. |

Packers | Several likely battling for one spot Wed Jul 11, 01:06 AM
Green Bay Packers WRs Diondre Borel and Tori Gurley are considered the favorites to make the 53-man roster for the potential sixth wide receiver spot, but they'll need to hold off youngsters like WRs Dale Moss and Shaky Smithson. 'It's got to be the deepest we've been since I've been here,' WR Jordy Nelson said. 'It's going to be difficult. It always will be. If you have a good team, which we have a good team, and are hopeful about making a run, it's going to be hard to make any position.'
Footballguys view: Wide receiver poor teams will be trawling the Packers camp cuts to get their practice squad or fifth receivers. Don't assume that Borel, Gurley, Moss, and Smithson are busts if they get cut this summer - the Packers are just very good at scouting wide receivers. |

Green Bay Packers WRs Diondre Borel and Tori Gurley will have to earn roster spots during training camp if they do make the team. Both may have to have an impact on special teams in order to secure a spot.
Footballguys view: We like Gurley in this battle. He's got a good size/speed combination and is dangerous after the catch because of his open field moves. |

Packers | Tori Gurley added weight Sun Jun 17, 04:41 PM
Green Bay Packers WR Tori Gurley added 16 pounds this season and now weighs 234 pounds. He could make the final roster because he is 6-foot-4 1/2 and the team does not have any other receivers that tall.
Footballguys view: Gurley is an interesting prospect to keep an eye on in deep dynasty leagues. He may be the 6th WR on the depth chart right now, but could move up in time. |

Packers | Diondre Borel, Tori Gurley are long shots to make roster Wed Jun 13, 01:51 AM
Green Bay Packers WRs Diondre Borel and Tori Gurley are considered long shots to make the team's roster out of training camp due to the return of WR Donald Driver. The Packers have all of their five wideouts returning from last season, and they have next kept six wideouts on its opening day roster during the regime of head coach Mike McCarthy. 'No regrets,' Gurley said. 'I know it's crowded, but it's like that everywhere around the league.'
Footballguys view: Gurley gave up a chance to be part of the Vikings active roster to stay on the Packers practice squad, and it looks like he'll remain there again this season until the Packers suffer a serious injury at wide receiver. |

Packers | Tough decisions at wide receiver Sun Aug 21, 12:37 AM
Green Bay Packers WRs Chastin West, Diondre Borel and Tori Gurley have looked good during training camp and during the preseason, but the Packers could have trouble keeping them all. The team usually carries five receivers on their roster, and it appears WRs Greg Jennings, James Jones, Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and Donald Driver are a pretty safe lock to make the team's final roster. They could opt to keep six receivers this year, but they would have to sacrifice depth at another position.
Footballguys view: Gurley is a big, physical receiver who belongs in the NFL, which means he is definitely in danger of being taken if the Packers try to slip him through to the practice squad. |

Footballguys view: Gurley has strong hands, as evidenced by having ZERO drops in 2010. He may not have the speed to play on the outside, but should at least be a strong red zone threat. He's currently seen as a seventh-rounder or priority free agent. |
