considering how bad rb has been this year and the lack of feature back potential what do u guys think??... if (when) murray goes down matthews is immediately in high rb2 consideration and potential rb1 status....i know league size could matter but still.... appreciate some input..

darren mcfadden - dunbar is done for the year so he is expected to take over his role and they are facing the pats.. so they should have 2 throw a lot.. chris thompson - facing the falcons.. should also have 2 throw a lot theo riddick - averaging 5 catches per so far this season shane vereen - hasn't caught a pass in 2 weeks... appreciate some input..

dont forget about lafell.. comes off the pup in 3 weeks... was a top 20 wr last season when he went to the pats... om stashing him tomorrow when my roster spot opens up... he will be scooped up a lot im guessing next week...

if ur going to buy hill... u buy him week 7... when he goes on his bye and his schedule is much better... he gets seattle this week, buffalo next, and than has his bye..

he has looked so much better than murray... hence the question..

mb on the spellling error.... anything to add 2 the discussion??>..

the 1 game mathews started (murry was inactive) against the jets he ran the ball really well... 100 plus yards rushing and a receiving td..

According to Dale Lolley of the Pennsylvania Observer-Reporter, it's looking "more and more" like Martavis Bryant will remain on the Steelers' reserve/suspended list into Week 6. The Steelers have a one-week exemption to keep Bryant on the suspended list, and appear poised to use it after Bryant "practiced sparingly" this week. They would have had to cut a player to activate Bryant. Steelers beat writers seem to have very few details regarding Bryant's absence from team activities. Bryant should be removed from all fantasy lineups entering Week 5.

Coach Pete Carroll said Fred Jackson (questionable, ankle) is likely to play in Sunday's game against the Bengals. Jackson was upgraded to limited Friday, and is expected to play through his high-ankle sprain. Seattle is confident enough in Jackson's status that he'll make the trip to Cincinnati. With Marshawn Lynch out, Jackson should have a pass-protection role behind Thomas Rawls.

hard to start rawls in a ppr league.. freddy jax is playing ... but in standard y not with the rb depth going to crap...

going from a 10 - 12 teamer is a huge difference ...who would u start out of that group??... and sims is also available..

thompson is also game flow dependent ... so i really dont know... if the skins keep the game close than i am screwed there as well... it really sucks having these options as an rb2 option for the week... ughhh

thanks for the input.. as of now i am rolling with DMC... my reason is simple.. dunbar was on pace to chatter the all time catches for an rb this season before he went down.. and now it is assumed that DMC is going to be taking over that roll because he is superior in pass pro to the other backs.. add to the fact that the pass are prob going to drop 35 plus again and weeden checks down to his backs a lot this could be a big day for DMC.. this all backfires on me though if they dont use DMC as their pass down back.... in order for riddick to really flourish for me he lions are going to have to be trailing for the most part... the game could def be closer than people think... i have flipped flopped on these options all week.. as of now like i said i am rolling with DMC just purely based off production dunbar was getting... appreciate some more input..

people forget hill went off last year when gio went down... before that hill was the td dependent rb he is now...when (if) gio goes down that is when hills value will be where every1 expected it... and whats really hurting hill is andy dalton playing so well.. he now has a healthy green and eifert to work with this season... no1 expected dalton to play this well.. because he is they dont have to have hill on the field as much and be a run heavy team... they are more of a pass heavy team.... so like i said .... until dalton starts playing bad or gio goes down hill is going to be legarrette blount 2.0 sadly... a td dependent game flow rb... and game flow is not even a given .. hence last game... gio was for some reason the closer even though the bengals were up all 4th quarter.. hill owners are in denial but everything points to hill being a headache all year where his touches are going to fluctuate... getting 9-15 touches per is just going to make him a middleing rb2 this year until circumstances change... if ur buying low ur hoping for an injury to gio... and hoping for an injury is never a good thing..

i dont know man... it makes no sense they haven't signed him yet... like u said they brought him in 2 times already.. maybe they havent liked what they have seen from him??... y bring him in 2 times and not sign him when they clearly need backfield help ??.... i picked bradshaw up at the beginning of the week and dropped him this mourning... i cant hold him when they might not sign him for another 2 weeks or not sign him at all... rbs are brought in all the time every week.. teams always take a look... i would think if they wanted 2 sign him they would have done it already.. just my opinion

obviously he is not signing this week... maybe early next week they willl bring som1 in..

ofcourse u pick him up... he is an easy upgrade over adams and moncreif when he is healthy..

i get what ur saying 49ers gold... but i viewed it as a wash like u said between rivers and cam... and i viewed edelman in a ppr league as an obvious huge upgrade over james jones... yea losing hill is a big loss because my rbs are pathetic.. but 2 put into perspective theo riddick has the same amount of points as hill in this ppr league because he has already caught 20 passes this year... obviously hill is going to have big games... but could reddick give me 8-15 points weekly in a ppr league??.. sure.. like i said .. i also have the number 1 waiver claim.. so i am going to sit on it and wait for a big injury to an rb.. also after this week cam and edelman would have already had there bye weeks... so that is huge in my eyes... as ryan and rivers have the same by week this year and there are no qbs available on the wire..

give - james jones, philip rivers, jeremy hill get - julian edelman, cam newton this league is a 2qb... ppr league.... here is my team now... qb - matt ryan qb - cam newton wr - julio jones wr - demaryus thomas wr - julian edelman rb - cj spiller rb - theo riddick te - antonio gates wr / te - delanie walker wr / rb - allen robinson bench - shane vereen, tyrod taylor, percy harvin, stevie johnson, charles sims yea my rbs are a mess but i have the number 1 waiver claim so i am hoping a big injury occurs at some point in the next few weeks so i can get a solid rb off the wire... overall though..ryan and rivers both had there bye weeks the same week.. so now i at least have 2 qbs going for that week.. (no qbs are on the wire).. i would appreciate some input..

i dont think i sold high on hill... but i did just trade him.... i gave up rivers, hill, jame jones for cam and edelman in a 2qb ppr league... i think its fair but i am glad i got rid of the headache..

give - julio jones, delanie walker, percy harvin get = rob gronkowski, julian edelman... this league is a ppr league.. would u deal julio in this deal??

sadly i thought i was buying low last week when i gave up maclin for him straight up in a ppr league... his carry per td ratio will never hold up... 9 carries last week .. 3tds... until he takes control of the backfield (if)... he is going to be td dependent.. although he has a real chance to push for 15-20 rush tds in this offense... the td upside is huge for him... just my opinion... if its a standard league i would hold... ppr league im not sure..

give - tyrod taylor and shane vereen get - marshawn lynch appreciate some input..

10 team.. 2qb.. ppr league...here is my team... qb - matt ryan qb - philip rivers wr - julio jones wr - demaryus thomas wr - james jones rb - jeremy hill rb - cj spiller te - antonio gates wr / rb - allen robinson wr / te - delane walker bench - percy harvin, tyrod taylor, shane vereen, stevie johnson, ryan matthews..

this league is a 2qb...ppr.. return yards league.. the trade is below... give - tyrod taylor, percy harvin, ryan matthews get - jarvis landry, teddy bridgewater.... here is my team with the trade... qb - matt ryan qb - philip rivers wr - julio jones wr - demaryus thomas wr - jarvis landry rb - jeremy hill rb - cj spiller te - antonio gates wr / rb - james jones wr / te - allen robinson bench - teddy bridgewater, shane vereen, stevie johnson, delanie walker i think i would eventually trade a wr for an rb or hopefully get 1 off the waiver wire so i dont have 2... i am really trying to start 5 wrs each week for the most part that are good 2 great.. appreciate some input
