waliguy 0 Posted June 24, 2006 Scoring: 1pt for 10 yards rushing 1pt for 10 yards receiving 1pt per reception 6pts TD --- I have to make a decision between Tinker Bell and FWP as my #2 RB going into the season. We keep 3 players (no more than two from any one position). My RBs are: Portis Bell Parker Martin Portis is my no brainer keeper. (My WRs all suck.) Martin isn't deserved of a keeper spot. Bell might blowup this year. I just don't really want to go into the season with Shana-wank playing mindgames with his running backs. And we all know that continues all year long. Regardless of whether it's RBBC or someone emerges, I believe Bell is still good for 800 yards and 5 TDs in 2006. He could do much better than that. FWP is proven, but will run between the 10s again in 2006. He'll still be good for 1100 yards and 8 TDs. I'm leaning toward FWP on this one. Opinions?

thebook 1 Posted June 25, 2006 I think Parker is the safer pick at this point. We all thought Bell would be featured last year but that did not materialize. Parker is not a feature back either, but his role as the main guy is pretty well defined. If I had to draft now, I'd go with Parker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Traveler 2 0 Posted June 25, 2006 I have a similar problem only a little more complex. I have Parker, Bell and Foster. I can only keep 2. To me Parker is the no brainer. He is the man in Pittsburgh, goal line running aside, whereas Shanahan can't seem to get over his man-love for Ron Dayne. Cowher isn't as fickle as Shanny with RBs. I think Shanahan could put Michelle Wie in the backfield and get her 1000 yds. I'd keep Parker. Now me, who know, Bell or Foster. I suippose I'll flip a coin right before my keeper deadline. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Force of Two 0 Posted June 26, 2006 If you want a chance at winning the whole thing then take the risk that Bell can win the job....if you want to be a team that might be able to compete take Parker Personally nothing is ever won by playing it safe and I would go with Bell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ainsley 0 Posted June 27, 2006 I'd go with FWP simply because he is the safer of the two. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gocolts 300 Posted June 29, 2006 FWP is the safeist pick by far.Shanny has screwed me enough I try to avoid the Denver RBs,if I have a choice,which you clearly do.HTH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
