Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Also, Singletary said he has not ruled out the possibility of the team acquiring quarterback Michael Vick -- although they team officials haven't discussed such a move (and team president Jed York suggested the chances were remote). ... Singletary said he is focusing on a possible competition matching Hill against Smith. He said the competition will not be a drawn-out affair. He said it will also be different than a year ago because Hill and Smith will be on equal footing.
