Tue Mar 11 2014 | 10:12 | Report: Skins, WR Andre Roberts strike deal |
The Washington Post reports the Redskins and free agent WR Andre Roberts have agreed to a deal. |
A deal can't be signed until 4 PM ET, but all signs point to Roberts landing in D.C. He just turned 26 in January, is from nearby South Carolina, and played his college ball at Citadel. Roberts can play outside and in the slot. He'll slide in as the starter opposite Pierre Garcon and will likely end Santana Moss' run in Washington. |

Tue Mar 11 2014 | 08:16 | Redskins, Browns interested in WR Roberts |
CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports free agent Andre Roberts is drawing interest from the Redskins and Browns. |
Roberts is 26 years old and likely aiming for a starting job after being buried behind Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd, and Rob Housler in Arizona last year. The Browns could smoothly plug him in opposite Josh Gordon, upgrading on Greg Little. The Skins would be an unattractive locale for Roberts' fantasy value. |

Tue Mar 4 2014 | 19:22 | Roberts does not expect to re-sign in Arizona |
On NBCSN's Pro Football Talk, free agent WR Andre Roberts said he does not expect to re-sign with the Cardinals. |
"I don't think I'll be back in Arizona," Roberts said. "I haven't received any phone calls from Arizona." The writing has been on the wall for quite some time. Roberts wants the pay and playing time of a number two wideout, and Arizona is unwilling to offer either. Roberts is our No. 8 free agent wide receiver. |

Mon Feb 17 2014 | 19:16 | Free agent WR Roberts not sure of future |
Free agent WR Andre Roberts said he and the Cardinals haven't engaged in contract talks. |
"I'm not sure about the interest of the Cardinals, yet," Roberts said. "They haven't come to me about anything. I am actually expecting them to offer me something." Roberts cited the presence of Larry Fitzgerald and Michael Floyd in Arizona, which obviously means fewer balls coming his direction. Roberts turned 26 last month, is durable, and proved he can play in 2011-2012. He's our No. 8 available free-agent receiver. Roberts can play inside or outside. |

Thu Jan 9 2014 | 12:07 | Andre Roberts expected to test the market |
Impending free agent Andre Roberts is expected to test the market. |
The Cardinals have plenty on their plate already with Larry Fitzgerald's potentially ugly contract situation, Daryl Washington owed a $10 million option bonus and Patrick Peterson needing a long-term deal. Roberts, a No. 3 wideout who lost slot reps to tight end Rob Housler this season, is not a priority. The 26-year-old is our No. 8 free agent wideout available. |

Sun Dec 29 2013 | 21:28 | Andre Roberts wraps year with 3/74/1 line |
Andre Roberts caught three passes for 74 yards with one touchdown in Sunday's Week 17 loss to the 49ers. |
Roberts played the No. 3 role in Bruce Arians' offense all year long, but he didn't have nearly as much success as predecessors like Antonio Brown and T.Y. Hilton did. He finishes with just 43 catches for 471 yards and two touchdowns. Roberts is talented enough to be an effective slot man, but the Cardinals may choose to let him walk in free agency. They used Rob Housler as a third receiver this season. |

Andre Roberts caught one pass for eight yards in Week 14 versus St. Louis. |
Roberts was targeted just twice. He's no higher than the fifth option in the passing game. Roberts is waiver wire fodder for the fantasy playoffs. |

Sun Nov 24 2013 | 20:13 | Andre Roberts catches three balls in win |
Andre Roberts caught three passes for 43 yards in Week 12 versus the Colts. |
Roberts was targeted five times by Carson Palmer. His big gain was a 32-yard pickup on a nice grab down the left sideline late in the fourth quarter in Jalil Brown's coverage. Roberts and his teammates celebrated the catch like a touchdown. It was the highlight of Roberts' day. He's not worth owning in re-draft leagues unless one of Larry Fitzgerald or Michael Floyd gets hurt. |

Sun Nov 17 2013 | 18:33 | Andre Roberts has three-catch day |
Andre Roberts caught three passes for 14 yards in Arizona's Week 11 win over the Jaguars. |
Roberts was back to bit duty with Michael Floyd (shoulder) looking no worse for the wear. Roberts needs injuries ahead of him to provide any real value in fantasy leagues, and right now, both Floyd and Larry Fitzgerald are healthy. |

Sun Oct 27 2013 | 20:09 | Andre Roberts gets one catch in win |
Andre Roberts caught one pass for eight yards in Sunday's Week 8 win over the Falcons. |
Roberts saw just two targets on the day, fading to black as the No. 3 wideout on a team that went run-heavy once they got a lead. He's now on pace for just 40 catches, 382 yards and no touchdowns. Dump him while the Cards are on a bye. |

Fri Oct 18 2013 | 00:31 | Andre Roberts has five-catch night vs. SEA |
Andre Roberts caught five passes for 33 yards in Arizona's Week 7 loss to the Seahawks. |
With Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring) hobbled, Roberts drew eight targets. The five catches were just one less than he had combined in Weeks 2-6. Roberts has legit slot skills, but they're going to waste in Arizona's offense, which is being torpedoed by poor quarterback and line play. Roberts is barely on the WR5 radar. |

Sun Oct 13 2013 | 21:05 | Andre Roberts catches just one pass in loss |
Andre Roberts caught just one pass for five yards in Week 6 against the 49ers. |
Roberts was targeted four times, finishing fifth on the squad in that category. Roberts is barely playing more than half the snaps since Rob Housler's return to the field. He's safe to drop in 10- and 12-team leagues. |

Thu Oct 10 2013 | 10:48 | Andre Roberts losing snaps fo Housler |
Coach Bruce Arians confirmed Andre Roberts is losing snaps because of Rob Housler's presence. |
When Housler returned from injury three weeks ago, Roberts was stuck playing more outside receiver. The problem is that he's not going to get reps ahead of Larry Fitzgerald or Michael Floyd. Over the last three games, Roberts is playing on just 55 percent of the snaps and has just two catches. |

Sun Oct 6 2013 | 19:54 | Andre Roberts goes catch-less in Week 5 |
Andre Roberts was held without a catch in Week 5 against Carolina. |
He was only targeted once. Roberts' playing time has all but evaporated with Rob Housler's return, as the Cardinals are focusing on Michael Floyd and Larry Fitzgerald at wideout. Roberts can be dropped in standard leagues. |

Sun Sep 15 2013 | 20:16 | Andre Roberts held to 36 yards in Week 2 |
Andre Roberts caught three balls for 36 yards in Week 2 versus Detroit. |
Roberts saw a team-high eight targets, but was frequently well covered and failed to reel in contested catches. The Cardinals' offense was also noticeably less in sync without Larry Fitzgerald, even though some would argue that theoretically might help Roberts' fantasy cause. Well, it didn't. Keep Roberts on the WR3 radar when the Cardinals face the Saints in Week 3. |
