Not good news for A. Gonzales:
He is going for a 2nd opinion becasue he is progressing slowly.

http://fantasysports.usatoday.com/content/topblurbs.asp?sport=NFL#157711

Here is another source:

Colts coach Jim Caldwell revealed Wednesday that Anthony Gonzalez is getting a second opinion on his lingering knee injury.

Beat writer Phil B. Wilson calls it "not a good sign" and doesn't expect Gonzalez to return "anytime soon." The second opinion will presumably come from Dr. James Andrews, and is being pursued to find out whether Gonzalez needs surgery on his sprained torn PCL. Strongly consider dropping Gonzalez if there are potential impact players on your waiver wire.

I think this makes Collie's value go up.
