Goal Line Backs, Any of Them Out There?

Recommended Posts

Is Verron Hayes an option in Pittsburgh?

 

Jerrius Norwood, is he the GL back and not getting the opportunities?

 

I didn't see the circumstances under which Carthon got his TD. Is he the new Munggro?

 

Leave a link and I'll definitely answer yours.

 

I'm in a 16 team league and we each have 3 RBs. I went with lundy over jacobs in the draft because lundy was the man. i regret that, especailly in this scoring only league. 3 points for 100 rushing and 6 points for TD for RBs. i have larry johnosn off this week and there is no way lundy gets a TD or 100 yards, so he would get me no points. i just need to drop lundy for someone you think will get a TD this week.

 

Options:

Stephen Davis STL

Musa Smith BAL

Ron Carthon IND

Kev. Faulk NEP

L. White TEN (7)

J. Norwood ATL (7)

C. Buckhalter PHI (9)

Verron Haynes

 

For the long run, i am thinking of getting buckhalter or lendale white, but i need a TD this week. HTH

that must be a really deep league if you have to worry about carthon and hayes...carthon got his td in garbage time when indy had a huge lead. not sure about Norwood, but he's looking good and will be a great option if dunn goes down

None of them are great options but I think Haynes would be the way to go. Pitt has the history and as far as I know, Norwood is not huge like Duckett.

I believe Davenport is going to be the goalline back in Pittsburgh and Cowher has said he wants to give him more work so if he's available go for it. I'm assuming Brandon Jacobs is not available but he would also be a great pickup. Why is it that you want a goalline back? I'm a big Norwood fan and if you can stash him on your bench I would do it. If Dunn misses any time, Norwood is going to be an absolute stud.

I like Buckhalter's chances of getting in the endzone @SF this week.

I would look at Lendale White out of this group. He was injured the 1st week and got some action this past week to shake off the rust. Now he should be primed to make a difference and the way to do this is to get goalline chances.

 

Otherwise, Faulk may be a good option if Dillon is hurt. He is also a good receiver and since he plays on 3rd downs, he will have a shot to rush or catch a TD.

I'd go:

 

1. Norwood - Atl runs the ball & long term you know that Dunn will miss some time

2. Buchalter - if Westbrook not playing

3. S Davis - he's gonna keep getting more reps

4. Davenport - PIT looked real bad running the ball. They will be behind Cincy all game & throwing

I would rate the top 3 as such

 

Norwood - he's getting carries already, may get some goalline touches

Buckhalter - Westbrook may miss some time, regardless, he should be at goalline

Haynes

Agree. Back when GB had a team, Davenport was a big goal line pusher. The reason the Steelers picked him up was for those opportunities. And, they even said that Vernon is not ready yet.

 

Also, look for Brandon Jacobs. He's a TRUCK!! The Giants will probably start putting him in more at the goal line to protect Tiki.
