Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Anderson, 34, originally signed with the Ravens in 2006 after six seasons with the Broncos. He served mainly as a backup to Jamal Lewis and Willis McGahee during his tenure in Baltimore, playing in 24 games and rushing 54 times for 245 yards. His playing time diminished greatly last season as Musa Smith emerged as an adequate third-down back. ... Anderson rushed for 1,487 yards and 15 touchdowns in 2000, earning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year honors for the Broncos. For his career, the 6-foot, 230-pound Anderson has rushed for 4,067 yards and 37 touchdowns. We suspect he'll have trouble attracting interest as a fee agent.
