BEREA, Ohio -- Michael Sam was laughing with teammates as they conducted a running-back drill for kids, each youngster stiff-arming and juking his way to a touchdown celebration dance in a makeshift end zone. Mike Remmers Vikings Jersey . Sam didnt stand out. He was just another rookie, simply one of the guys. The NFLs first openly gay active player, Sams first months in the league have gone just as he would have hoped. "Its very positive, its very fun," Sam said. "Im excited to be playing for the Rams, Im excited to be in the NFL." Sam was in town with the other NFC rookies, who took part in a PLAY 60 youth football clinic with local children at the Browns training complex, part of the leagues four-day rookie symposium. The AFC rookies will begin their symposium on Wednesday. The full orientation for the players includes presentations, workshops and speakers covering a broad range of topics that fit under four core teaching principles: NFL History, Total Wellness, Professional Experience and, yes, Workplace Conduct. But workplace conduct -- that is, experiencing workplace respect and maintaining positive relationships, two main outlined elements of the symposium -- hasnt been a problem for Sam. Not with his teammates and not among the other rookies. Its obvious he has the respect of those around him. "You dont see anyone not talking to him or against him," said guard Greg Robinson, Sams teammate in St. Louis and the second overall pick in Aprils draft. "They look at him as a football player." That doesnt mean Sam has to shy away from who he is, though. In a group meeting during the symposium, he was able to share some thoughts on his own life with teammates and rookies from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. "Just know someones story before you judge them. Thats pretty much what it comes down to," said Tampa Bay wide receiver Mike Evans. "Hes a normal guy, just like us. Just here to play football." Sam is also quickly becoming known for his sense of humour. "The Rams love him," Evans said. "They always joke around with him. He seems like a fun-loving guy." And like any rookie, he is adjusting to the stark contrasts between the college and professional game. Sam was the SECs Co-Defensive Player Of The Year last season and was taken with the 249th overall pick in the seventh round of the draft, but he is working hard to carve out a role on a loaded Rams defensive line, led by ends Chris Long and Robert Quinn, who was second in the NFL in sacks last season. He has also been finding work on special teams. "Its every fast. Everything is full speed," Sam said. "If you make a mistake, it could cost you that win in practice or that win in a game. That one mistake. So youve got to pay attention to details." As for the details that have followed Sam around since he came out to the media in February, they havent mattered to anyone in the league, especially those who have met him. "Hes just another guy in the locker room," Robinson said. "Hes really cool once you get to know him and I feel like he has a great story behind him." That story has resulted in a whirlwind year for Sam, without much time to reflect on the fact that he is finally an NFL player. Its a lifelong goal that made him not unlike every player on the field Tuesday, having fun with kids eager to show off their quick feet or sure hands. "It still hasnt hit me yet, its still like a dream," Sam said. And as he continues to cross through uncharted territory, there is still that one vital, important thing to keep in mind. The thing that truly makes Sams experience a worthwhile success. "They treat me like a rookie," he said. Sheldon Richardson Vikings Jersey .

The 29-year-old left fielder struggled all season with knee and hamstring problems. Cabrera was first on the disabled list from June 27-July 20 with tendinitis in his left knee.With injuries, lineup changes and other roster moves affecting playing time, it is important to keep your fantasy lineup up-to-date. Here are some under-the-radar players to take a look at to fill in the final spots on your team, as well as some who no longer warrant ownership. Take a look at… Chris Kaman (C – Por) – 11.9% owned: Despite putting up respectable numbers as a backup, Kaman will suddenly be thrust into the starting lineup after centre Robin Lopez reportedly fractured his hand and could be out for up to a month. He becomes a must-own player on a very good Portland team, who sit atop the Northwest Division with a 19-6 record. The veteran should see upticks in his averages with Lopez out. CJ Watson (PG – Ind) – 7.1% owned: Since making his season debut just over two weeks ago, Watson has steadily inserted himself into the Pacers rotation. He was named a starter three games ago and has put up double digit points in all of those contests. Those looking for a starting point guard who may still be available on the wire should take a look at snagging Watson. He provides a solid shooting percentage and grabs a few steals to go along with the assists. Shabazz Muhammad (SF – Min) – 11.8% owned: Aside from a dud against Philadelphia, Muhammad has been able to consistently put up double digits coming off the bench for the Timberwolves. This includes tying his career-high 28 points in Sundays game against the Lakers. While he wont provide much else aside from scoring and a few rebounds, Muhammad seems to have been able to find his niche in the rotation, at least until Kevin Martin returns from a fractured wrist. Hes also been shooting a blistering 50.2% this season. Shawne Williams (SF/PF – Mia) – 5.4% owned: The journeyman emerged earlier in the season as a starter for the Heat, providing three-pointers and rebounds as a stretch power forward. With news coming out of Miami of Josh McRoberts possible season-ending surgery and Chris Boshs suddenly concerning calf strain, Williams is worth another shot in fantasy leagues as Miammis offence, especially up front, is quickly depleted. Randy Moss Vikings Jersey. Notables: Patrick Patterson (PF – Tor), Mareese Speights (PF/C – GSW), Donatas Montejunas (PF – Hou) Maybe say goodbye to… Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (SG – Det) – 9.7 % owned: Already shooting a paltry 38% from the field, Caldwell-Pope isnt doing much better from the free throw line either (67%). His scoring inconsistencies could be excused before, but now that the Pistons prized free-agent signing Jodie Meeks has returned to the team, Caldwell-Popes tenure in the starting lineup should be coming to a close. Meeks has averaged 12.7 points in his three games and has been chipping away at the second year mans minutes. Ed Davis (PF/C – LAL) – 11.6% owned: Despite starting the Lakers last six games, Davis has averaged under six rebounds and points per game and has frequently sat in favour of ex-starter Carlos Boozer. He showed some early season promise as a big man off the bench for Los Angeles, but that has disappeared. To top it off, Davis scored zero points in 23 minutes in Mondays loss to Indiana. Greivis Vasquez (PG – Tor) – 7.9% owned: Expected to fill in on offence after DeMar DeRozans injury, Vasquez was swapped out of the starting lineup in Dwane Caseys attempt for a more defensive presence. Lou Williams has already taken a lot of Vasquezs minutes this season, and rightfully so. The Venezuelan has struggled shooting the ball all season, especially over the last five games (33%). Owners who were expecting three-pointers from him should also be disappointed. Brandan Wright (PF/C – Dal) – 14.8% owned: Even though his minutes have remained relatively consistent, Wright has seen his numbers drop across the board. He has failed to score in double digits in his last ten contests. While Wright still can provide some blocks and steals, even those have disappeared on some nights. He is no longer worth a spot in a fantasy lineup as a backup big.
