  Raiders | Sign two wide receivers    Tue May 24, 02:07 PM

Free-agent WRs Robert Herron (Dolphins) and Nathan Palmer (Bears) were signed by the Oakland Raiders Tuesday, May 24.

Footballguys view: Herron is the player to watch here in super deep dynasty leagues. He's a sharp route-runner who has spent time with the Bucs and the Dolphins. Both are competing for a spot on the depth chart behind Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree.

  Saints | Nathan Palmer working out for Saints    Wed May 18, 02:08 PM

Free-agent WR Nathan Palmer (Bears) is working out for the New Orleans Saints Wednesday, May 18.

Footballguys view: The Saints are pretty stacked at wide receiver, so Palmer has a steep hill to climb to make the team and is likely just a camp body.

  Bears | Four players waived    Mon May 16, 05:54 PM

Chicago Bears C Dan Buchholz, DT Bruce Gaston and WRs Marcus Lucas and Nathan Palmer were waived Monday, May 16.

  Bears | Sign several players to reserve/futures contracts    Mon Jan 4, 03:45 PM

Chicago Bears QB Matt Blanchard, RB Paul Lasike, WR Marcus Lucas, WR Nathan Palmer and TE Gannon Sinclair were signed to reserve/futures contracts Monday, Jan. 4.

Footballguys view: Lasike was added by the Arizona Cardinals as an undrafted free agent in May, but he was released and signed to the Bears practice squad in September of 2015. He plays with the power of a fullback, and he can be relied on as a relief-valve receiver out of the backfield.

  Broncos | Nathan Palmer waived    Tue Sep 1, 11:43 AM

Denver Broncos WR Nathan Palmer was waived Tuesday, Sept. 1.

Footballguys view: Palmer was just depth. He may end up on a practice squad if he has some time left, but more than likely he ends up back in the recording studio to cut another album as NaPalm. No, we're not kidding.

  Broncos | Nathan Palmer is longshot for job    Mon Jul 20, 10:11 PM

Denver Broncos WR Nathan Palmer is in the hunt for a spot on the 53-man roster, but he likely needs an outstanding training camp and big play in the preseason to land a job.

Footballguys view: Nathan Palmer has bounced around with the San Francisco 49ers, Indianapolis Colts and Miami Dolphins, almost exclusively on the practice squads of each team. He was activated for one game last year, but he has to be considered a longshot to make the final roster.

  Broncos | Six signed to futures deals    Mon Jan 12, 06:58 PM

Denver Broncos RB Kapri Bibbs, WR Isaiah Burse, WR Bennie Fowler, WR Nathan Palmer, C Matt Paradis and DE Gerald Rivers were signed to Reserve/Futures contracts Monday, Jan. 12.

Footballguys view: Bibbs and Fowler are the two players to watch here in super super deep dynasty leagues. Fowler was a UDFA out of Michigan State this year, and he has a lot of Anquan Boldin to his game. Bibbs was a star at Colorado State, and he runs with great balance and a nose for the end zone (31 rushing touchdowns for the Rams in 2013).

  Broncos | Re-sign Nathan Palmer to practice squad    Thu Sep 11, 12:45 PM

The Denver Broncos re-signed WR Nathan Palmer to their practice squad Thursday, Sept. 11. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: The Broncos moved Palmer onto the active roster to take Wes Welker's roster spot, but he gets moved back down to make room for other players. The team could be getting Welker back if the NFL/NFLPA implement the new drug policy and eliminate the suspensions under the old policy.

Carolina Panthers TE D.C.

  Broncos | Waive Nathan Palmer    Tue Sep 9, 03:26 PM

The Denver Broncos waived WR Nathan Palmer Tuesday, Sept. 9.

Footballguys view: The spot for Palmer on the active roster could soon be filled by Wes Welker. There's a decision coming from the league and the NFLPA that could reduce Welker's four-game suspension.

  Broncos | Nathan Palmer added to roster    Wed Sep 3, 01:11 PM

The Denver Broncos have promoted practice squad WR Nathan Palmer to their active roster.

Footballguys view: The Broncos are going to be short handed at the wide receiver position with Wes Welker suspended the first four games of the season. Palmer is unlikely to be active on gameday, and he has almost no fantasy value--even in super deep dynasty leagues.

  Broncos | Nine players added to practice squad    Sun Aug 31, 03:02 PM

The Denver Broncos have signed LB Shaquil Barrett, RB Kapri Bibbs, FS John Boyett, QB Zac Dysert, WR Bennie Fowler, OT Vinston Painter, WR Nathan Palmer, C Matt Paradis and WR Gerell Robinson to their practice squad.

Footballguys view: The Broncos get to keep Dysert around. The 2013 seventh-round pick has a rocket arm and the athleticism to keep plays alive with his feet while keeping his eyes downfield. Bibbs also stays in Colorado after a standout 2013 season with Colorado State. He has good balance and looks better as a receiver than some expected.

  Broncos | Five released    Sat Aug 30, 02:54 PM

Denver Broncos QB Zac Dysert, RB Kapri Bibbs, OT Vinston Painter, WR Nathan Palmer and FS John Boyett were released Saturday, Aug. 30. The Broncos will try to re-sign Dysert to the practice squad Sunday, Aug. 31.

Footballguys view: Dysert may not make it to the practice squad. He's got a rocket arm, but struggles with accuracy. The 2013 seventh-round pick has good athleticism to keep plays alive with his feet while keeping his eyes downfield.

  Broncos | Nathan Palmer added to practice squad    Wed Dec 25, 03:58 PM

The Denver Broncos have signed WR Nathan Palmer to their practice squad.

Footballguys view: Palmer (5-11, 198 pounds) is a second-year wide receiver who competed on Miami's practice squad for the majority of the 2013 season after playing in five games as a rookie for Indianapolis last year. He was signed by San Francisco as a college free agent from Northern Illinois University in 2012 after playing in 48 games (20 starts) for the Huskies and totaling 93 receptions for 1,575 yards (16.9 avg.) with 16 touchdowns.

  Dolphins | Receiver likely to be promoted from practice squad    Thu Oct 31, 02:21 AM

A replacement for Miami Dolphins WR Brandon Gibson (knee) is likely to come from the practice squad, since the Dolphins worked out several wide receivers and elected not to sign any. WR's Ryan Spadola and Nathan Palmer are the likely options. In addition, the Dolphins probably will use a combination of Rishard Matthews and Marcus Thigpen to fill Gibson's spot.

Footballguys view: Whoever it is isn't likely to have much fantasy relevance, at least in the immediate future. The issues along the offensive line are hurting Ryan Tannehill's ability to get the ball out to his receivers and when he does it will remain primarily Brian Hartline and Mike Wallace who are the beneficiaries, though even they are struggling. Hartline has been a decent flex start while Wallace has been hovering as a WR3 for the most part.

  Colts | GM impressed with Nathan Palmer    Sun Jan 20, 03:55 PM

Indianapolis Colts general manager Ryan Grigson said WR Nathan Palmer is about as explosive as any receiver on the roster.

Footballguys view: Palmer was originally a 49ers undrafted free agent signing, and they gave him the biggest signing bonus of their UDFAs. Donnie Avery wasn't all that impressive this year, so Palmer could be in line for more opportunity next season in a good passing game.

The Indianapolis Colts have declared DL Antonio Johnson, DL Cory Redding, RB Delone Carter, WR Nathan Palmer, C Samson Satele, FS Tom Zbikowski, OT Tony Hills inactive for Week 17.

Footballguys view: The Colts are probably going to rest their starters pretty early in this one, so don't count on any of them in your week 17 Super Bowl lineup unless you have to.

The Indianapolis Colts have declared DL Clifton Geathers, TE Coby Fleener, DE Lawrence Guy, CB Marshay Green, WR Nathan Palmer, OT Tony Hills, CB Vontae Davis inactive for Week 9.

Footballguys view: Dwayne Allen becomes a viable low-end TE1 play with Fleener out and the Colts facing a very tough run defense.

Footballguys view: Donald Brown is active, but according to beat writers, he will back up Vick Ballard. If you have to play one of the Colts backs, play Ballard.

  49ers | A.J. Jenkins, Nathan Palmer struggled on punt returns    Wed Jul 11, 01:01 AM

San Francisco 49ers WRs A.J. Jenkins and Nathan Palmer each struggled on the final day of minicamp as they attempted to catch punts.

Footballguys view: Just another struggle for Jenkins in an offseason full of them.

  49ers | Agree to terms with 17 UDFAs    Tue May 1, 10:06 PM

The San Francisco 49ers agreed to terms with undrafted college rookie DL Kourtnei Brown, DL Patrick Butrym, TE Garrett Celek, RB DaJuan Cofield, RB Jewel Hampton, LB Joe Holland, DL Tony Jerod-Eddie, DL Matthew Masifilo, CB Anthony Mosley, OL Kevin Murphy, OL Al Netter, WR Chris Owusu, WR Nathan Palmer, DB Deante' Purvis, PK Giorgio Tavecchio, S Michael Thomas and WR Brian Tyms.

Footballguys view: We'll take note of the RB Hampton here. He began his college career at Iowa and is an instinctive RB with a nice blend of size/speed and moves in the open field. He falls to the PFA ranks because of injury concerns but could be very productive as a full time RB if he stays healthy and gets an opportunity.
