[Smol0028 0]

I am already having a crappy FF year and it hasn't even started!! I lost greg Jones for the year so I need to add another player.....I am weak at RB but there isn't a lot left in the waivers.

 

Here are some choices:

 

 

Hicks

Buckhalter

Toefield

Marty Booker

Doug Gabriel

Greg Jennings

Vincent Jackson

 

 

Here's my team:

Bledsoe, Roethlisberger

Fitz, Driver, Galloway, A Bryant,

Portis, C Taylor, Betts, M Moore, Greg Jones

H Miller

Elam

Bucs, Denver

I think I'd let go of Betts and Jones.

 

Get toefield and jennings out of that group you gave. lundy or morency aren't available, are they?

 

 

thanks for your help on my thread.

These all may be taken, but have you checked:

 

Marion Barber

Cedric Benson

Ron Dayne

 

You could also just move down the Jags depth chart and pick up Maurice Drew. It's not as if Fred Taylor is any less likely to get injured now.

I agree Betts and Jones aren't doing you any good. I'd say Buckhalter and Toefield.

 

Just my .02

Is Buckhalter from Philly? If so I would look at him and Toefield.

 

If not go with Toefield and Jennings.

 

 

Please se mine:

Marion Barber -- gone

Cedric Benson -- gone

Ron Dayne -- may be cut from Denver

 

teh Jags backfield gets really messy now.....I can't tell if the starter is Toefield or Maurice Drew

Camaro24,

 

Who did you give up for Wayne? I'm looking to upgrade at WR in a 12 team league and would like to have that as a data point.

 

Thanks

I'd say Toefield, Maurice Drew...also Samkon Gado if he is available. Someone else mentioned Marion Barber, though I doubt he is available. My advice would be to first go through and see if anyone who has a legitimate chance at carries is avaiable. If not, look at the RBs most likely to get injured or faulter throughout the year and grab their backups. Off the top off my head, you might want to find NE, GB, BAL, TEN backups.

what about V Haynes or Staley from Pit?? Should I grab Haynes??

Grab Maurice Drew. He got 10 carries last game, and they didn't draft him in the 2nd Round for nothing. He's performed very well so far in the preseason, too.

 

I have little doubt that Drew is the best RB on that roster, including Taylor.

How many RBs do you have to start? If it's a matter of just having one extra back for a bye week, I think you'll do okay with a Mewelde Moore or whoever you can get off the wire. Just be patient and see how the season turns out. Guys get dropped all the time that you wouldn't expect. Someone dropped Donald Driver a couple of years ago, and after I snatched him up off the wire, it just about made my entire season.

 

If you're really hurting now, try trading one of your WRs with Moore for a RB upgrade. Again, it helps to know how many at each position you have to start.
