The Raiders signed free-agent defensive tackle William Joseph on Friday, adding a former first-round pick whose career has been plagued by injuries. Joseph missed all of last season for the Super Bowl champion Giants with a back injury. He was a late scratch for New York's season opener and then placed on injury reserve the following week.

Fantasy Analysis
The Raiders were looking for help on the defensive line after allowing a league-worst 4.8 yards per carry and finishing second-to-last by allowing 145.9 yards per game. Joseph was the 25th overall pick out of Miami in the 2003 draft. He played in 55 games his first four seasons before the back injury, recording seven sacks and 52 solo tackles. He also forced two fumbles and had six passes defensed. The oft-injured lineman doesn't deserve Fantasy consideration. (Updated 03/17/2008).
