jakeman24 0 Posted October 13, 2007 I must start 3 receivers or I will be docked points. So far I am starting Dwayne Bowe and Joey Galloway. My other 2 receivers are Roy Williams and Santonio Holmes both are on bye weeks. Being that I cant really get rid of Williams or Holmes, my only other option is to dump a RB. My RB core consists of: Joseph Addai Willis McGahee LaMont Jordan Marshawn Lynch Cedric Benson I must start 2 backs every week and they cannot be on a bye week or I get docked points. This week Addai and Lynch are on a bye week. I am starting McGahee of course but my only other option is Benson since Jordan is doubtful. Jordan is a better back but will be splitting carries for the rest of the year if he gets healthy. But it makes me want to puke dumping LaMont and keeping Benson!! Anyone have any insight into this decision? Any input would be appreciated. Leave me a link and I will respond to yours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leshavelli 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Tough decision here. I am concerned about LaMont. He didn't finish practice today and has a history of being banged up. Is your league PPR? If so, that makes it hard to drop LaMont. However, there is depth there. Lynch gets plenty of carries. Benson got 27 carries last week but had like 70 yards to show for it. However, it looks like the Bears are committed to giving him the carries. Ultimately, my recommendation would be to trade Benson, Lynch, or LaMont for a decent WR. Maybe you could get Coles or Cotchery? Have you gone that route, yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steppdaddy 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Your situation sucks, but if you have to dump a r.b., it has to be Jordan with him splitting carries and injury prone. You do have good depth so I agree with above to try and trade a back for a better w.r. Thanks in advance. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=295476 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakeman24 0 Posted October 13, 2007 I have been shopping Lynch, Benson and Jordan for weeks now. I have not received any interest from anyone. I did receive an offer for Coles if I would trade my QB Matt Hasselbeck. My only other QB is Warner which I picked up the other day. I thought about making the move out of desperation but I dont trust Warner yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLT 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Man your situation kind of sucks & so does Benson but I agree with Lashavelli that they are committing to giving him the ball. Jordan is banged up & if he plays against SD this week he might be a little more yet. all that said, if you have to drop 1 I would drop Jordan just because splits & injury. You got some good weeks out of him I'd say drop him and move forward. See mine (WR help) BLT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrgymrat 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Yes, drop Jordan. Maybe nobody will pick him up since he's now in a RBBC... ---- my link http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=295481 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cmoney22 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Well it looks like you have to drop him... hope that he sits this week and goes unnoticed so no one picks him up... sucky situation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScottyArms 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Tough decision Just taking a look at it Lamont Jordan seems like the one that would need to go cause of the injury factors and his status is unknown. If you need to make this decision by Sunday cut Jordan. Good luck http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=295506 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cchurchill75 0 Posted October 13, 2007 Assuming you can't swing a trade for one of them (good luck - I've been shopping Benson for weeks), I would dump Jordan. Between the injury, Rhodes coming back, all the factors are in play for his numbers to drop. See mine.. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=295509 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
