jerryskids 5,206 Posted October 2, 2012 Does anyone see the potential for him to become relevant this year? He's been pretty useless, albeit injured, to date. I've got him in a PPR and thinking of dropping him for the waiver darling du jour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kent 228 Posted October 3, 2012 I hate being right but I said to everyone before the draft on this board that the guy isn't happy unless he has a tissue injury in his legs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenTD 56 Posted October 3, 2012 I've got him in two leagues & he hasn't started in either league since week 2. I can't trade him & dropping a starting running back isn't the best of ideas. STL's defense seems to be playing well & their offense seems to be gelling. The problem is their offensive line isn't opening any holes for him to run through. I'm gonna take a wait & see approach with SJax. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

totetherock 0 Posted October 3, 2012 I'm hanging on to him, I think he will get better. If I recall correctly he had a slow start last year too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm gonna take a wait & see approach with SJax. Yeah, I can't see dropping him at this point I guess. Although, I think Cara posted a thorough description of how the Rams' offensive line sucks ass. Still, he is the bellcow when healthy so he stays as a bye week flex on my roster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DamageIncVacc 6 Posted October 3, 2012 Tried to trade him. Almost No takers basically. Most people think hes worthless. I was eventually able to get Ryan Williams for him and happy to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheadtoo 1 Posted October 3, 2012 I used him as a throw in trying to trade Brady and SJax for flacco and lynch I needed a good running back hoping for a bite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Djgb13 2,338 Posted October 3, 2012 Traded him along with Fitzgerald for lesawn McCoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarvis Basnight 119 Posted October 3, 2012 He's just a name I think. A name from the past. I haven't been interested in him for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgs316 14 Posted October 3, 2012 Think Lynch from last year, started slow, new coach, new line, ended up carrying teams to the promised land. At least I'm hoping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rallo 132 Posted October 3, 2012 His value is so low right now i think that all you can do is hang on and hope for a good week or two before you trade him... Unfortunately i have 3 RBs that are similar in that regard... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msudavedawg 5 Posted October 3, 2012 He's Eddie George. And not the good Eddie George. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shredhead 21 Posted October 3, 2012 Someone dropped him in my league, so I picked him up. I'm not sure if I'll ever play him, but he's kind of a security blanket. He affords me the luxury of dropping a Donald Brown or Jaquizz Rodgers if someone emerges on the waiver wire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FFGirl22 0 Posted October 4, 2012 I'm trying to package him and Vick in a trade with a guy who is 0-4. Hoping to get him to give me Big Ben and an underperfoming DMC. Doubt that it'll happen, but the guy might panic and pull the trigger just for something different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gregzeetheking 0 Posted October 4, 2012 He's been injured, so that's slowed him down. However, there were two games where he had a TD called back due to penalty. Right now, he's got bad luck, but I think in a few weeks hes going to start putting up nice RB#2 numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thePRO 78 Posted October 4, 2012 Shippin off Rivers, SJax, and Hartline for Rodgers! (Sadly he'll say F no and tell me to put in BJGE instead of Sjax.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
