GravesVT 0 Posted September 6, 2006 First off, my league starts 3 WR, 2 RB, and a W/R so I would prefer to start 3 RB..anyways, someone just dropped Deangelo Williams into the waiver pool and I am wondering if I should pick him up. My current WR & RB roster consists of: RBS ----- Larry Johnson Kevin Jones Mike Bell Fred Taylor WRS ------ Chad Johnson Chris Chambers L. Coles Drew Bennett Reggie Brown From my standpoint, I think I am sitting pretty decently in terms of WR's, but because I had the #1 pick (L. Johnson), I wasn't able to secure a good 2nd RB. I see a lot of potential in Williams, especially given Foster's history of injuries; however, I also see some upside with Reggie Brown now that TO is gone and he has gained a lot more experience. What do you guys think? Reggie Brown is the worst player on my team so he is really the only person I can afford to drop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
larrymcirish 0 Posted September 6, 2006 i just dropped reggie for horn. reggie's value dropped for me with the stallworth trade. however, i don't see you getting much out of deangelo until foster gets hurt. your other rb's are starters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruptured groin 0 Posted September 6, 2006 I would definitely drop brown for williams in your format. You are unlikely to ever use brown and he has little trade value. williams, on the other hand, has tremendous upside imo... let me know your thoughts: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=228968 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray_T 608 Posted September 6, 2006 I agree. you wont get much for brown. now that he is a #2, I'd say his value is almost nil. I agree hes good, but I cant see him being good enough to put up the kind of numbers you need from the #2 slot. take a chance. I'm willing to bet noone picks up brown on waivers anyhow, so if you want him back you'll be able to get him back at anytime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtbagz 0 Posted September 6, 2006 Nah, I think you're good for now. No need to pick up DeAngelo unless you hear news of injury concern with Foster. Keep Brown for now. I'd like your thoughts on my situation: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=229072 thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zippy256 0 Posted September 6, 2006 Grab Deangelo You'll probably be able to pick up Reggie when Tayor goes down to injury (again). Mine Little help for me please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What do you guys think? Reggie Brown is the worst player on my team so he is really the only person I can afford to drop. I'd pick up DeAngelo. He'll start sooner or later with Foster's history and Brown is now the 4th receiving option behind Stall, Smith and Westy. Plus, you can probably find another receiver on the WW at any time. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=229075 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kswrestler 0 Posted September 6, 2006 is your league a holdover league? if so, grabbing deangelo williams would be a wise move for future years. if not, i'd probably hang on to brown for the meantime. personally, i'm not convinced that stallworth is going to stay healthy himself, and if he does, be productive.

dalie 2 Posted September 6, 2006 I would pick up Williams and drop Reggie Brown for sure, you need more depth at RB then WR if you want to start 3 RB's (which I would) and DeAngelo will rock if Foster goes down. Mine? http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=229200 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
