Steve Smith getting work with 1st-team

Eagles WR Steve Smith (knee) has reportedly been getting some work with the 1st-team offense in practice.  "We're gonna see how he works out this week," HC Andy Reid said.  It sounds like Smith has a legitimate chance to play against the Rams this Sunday -- about 9 months after undergoing microfracture knee surgery.  His snaps would figure to be limited though, so Smith isn't a fantasy option yet.  But we'll be keeping a close eye on him.  If he can return to pre-injury form -- and that's no guarantee -- he could be a viable WR3 on Philly's high-octane offense.  It'd also knock WR Jason Avant off the fantasy radar.
