[ponchsox]

Broyles

 

[Plorfu]

Maybe Jackie Battle again after the Matthews fumble.

 

[The Dude]

Dressen :looper:

 

[CataclysmicThunder]

Logan Paulsen?

 

[Dan79]

Logan Paulsen?

I'm watching him but he's only got one catch so far.

 

[HughHoney]

Logan Paulsen?

RG3 missed him by a yard on a bomb along on the sidelines.

 

[Nucker101]

Logan Paulsen?

Wouldn't expect much, wasn't he a former O-lineman? Fred Davis is much more talented and he didn't do much.

 

[LittlePhatty]

Guy Whimper.*

*O-Line leagues only. Actually, I just wanted to type his name because it's funny.

 

[5-ish Finkle]

Guy Whimper.**O-Line leagues only. Actually, I just wanted to type his name because it's funny.

Worst. Name. For an OLer. Ever.

 

[Sea Duck]

Matt Moore in Miami.

[SameSongNDance]

LaFell if someone cut bait, he's catching back on.

Ceil Shorts, he's getting enough looks to be relevant.

James Starks, Green is running backwards.

Vereen is still worth the stash.

 

[dickey moe]

Clyde Gates?

 

[Saint]

Tony Moeaki or Titus Young (if anyone dropped him)

 

[fire_tune]

Mccluster. One week fluke?

 

[johnnyboy8102]

Mccluster. One week fluke?

He had a solid Week 1 and was silent until today. Not sure what to make of it.

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Not many this week.

Starks

Tebow (Jets bye next week)

 

[donkshow]

Very slim pickens so far.

 

[flranger]

Dwilly. If you can pick him up now do it. If not traded by Tuesday night then drop him again.

 

[finito]

Starks

Is he going to get a legit shot?

 

[CrazyFox]

Maybe Kevin Smith ?

 

[Dought Man]

Not Ogletree

 

[Jed]

Basically nothing for the 8th week in a row.

 

[SteelerMurf]

Basically nothing for the 8th week in a row.

Yep it has complete suck

 

[zamboni]

Shorts is interesting, but have to figure Blackmon still going to be a lot of targets and it's not exactly the most pass-happy offense.

 

[JHuber77]

Chris Ivory in case he gets traded

 

[Quibbler]

Jon Baldwin. If Bowe is traded, he'll get those garbage time yds.

 

[cubbie5150]

I need a kicker to cover Gostkoski's BYE. Does that count? Yeah, waiver wire is barren as hell...has been for awhile now.

 

[CrazyFox]

Maybe Quizz...he saw more action than in the previous few weeks.

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Starks

Is he going to get a legit shot?

If they don't pick up someone else, can't imagine they'll stick with Alex Green plodding at 2.4 ypc (his avg as starter) for 20+ carries/game.Probably looking atupside of 10-15 touches/game for Starks. However, there's always a shot that he handles most/all 1st/2nd down work.

They'd be better off with Ryan Grant running the ball than Alex Green. The guy is atrocious running the ball.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Considering Shorts has played five quarters as a starter with Gabbert at QB and has 16 targets for 10-177-1 in that time I'm surprised he's not at the top of this list.

He's going to have some uneven games, but I think when all is said and done he'll be 2012's WW pickup of the year.

If you think Gabbert's turned the corner, you may be right.I simply don't want to risk consistently playing a WR whose QB has thrown for 186 or less in 5 of 7 starts this year. For a bye week fill-in, sure I'd look to Shorts.

Fair or not, they probably won't have Laurent Robinson (when he returns) standing on the sidelines all game after paying him a lot. [i personally think Shorts brings more to the table, but $$ talks & this staff brought Laurent in]

 

[tarheel4ever]

Pretty much nothing out there, maybe TB D?

 

[Area51Inhabitant]

I think Isaiah Pead's role is about to jump significantly in St Louis.

 

[KingPrawn]

I think Isaiah Pead's role is about to jump significantly in St Louis.

Why?

 

[DocHolliday]

I think Isaiah Pead's role is about to jump significantly in St Louis.

Why?

If SJax is traded, it is the Pead and Richardson show. Richardson is not going to carry the load himself.

 

[djmich]

Tolbert if Williams is traded? Just a JStew injury away (not a rare occurrence) to the backfield by himself.

 

[reprisal]

Hillman, assuming he doesn't lose one of these fumbles. Balls been very loose on several of his carries and he completely lost track of it on that big run.

 

[sammy8887]

Hillman, assuming he doesn't lose one of these fumbles. Balls been very loose on several of his carries and he completely lost track of it on that big run.

Definitely looks like he's worth handcuffing to McGahee now. Reminds me of Gore/Hunter situation in SF...

 

[Insein]

Broyles

Snagged him before kickoff today. Then that ******* Young decided to show up.

 

[Insein]

Starks

Is he going to get a legit shot?

If they don't pick up someone else, can't imagine they'll stick with Alex Green plodding at 2.4 ypc (his avg as starter) for 20+ carries/game.Probably looking atupside of 10-15 touches/game for Starks. However, there's always a shot that he handles most/all 1st/2nd down work.

They'd be better off with Ryan Grant running the ball than Alex Green. The guy is atrocious running the ball.

Wishful thinking. Green has looked this way for 3 weeks now and Starks has 5, 0 and 1 carries in those 3 weeks. Green ain't much but they like Starks even less.

 

[Insein]

Plus Blackmon just flatout sucks. Saw a sequence at the end of the game where Jags are driving to win and Gabbert threw to Blackmon 4 straight plays to end it. 3 incompletes and 1 catch for 4 yards... 5 shy of the first down on 4th down. He looks so confused right now. Shorts seems to be in rhythm with Gabbert at least.

 

[agent orange]

Tolbert if Williams is traded? Just a JStew injury away (not a rare occurrence) to the backfield by himself.

Now that's digging deep. If DWill gets traded, and if JStew gets injured.

 

[agent orange]

Hillman, assuming he doesn't lose one of these fumbles. Balls been very loose on several of his carries and he completely lost track of it on that big run.

Definitely looks like he's worth handcuffing to McGahee now. Reminds me of Gore/Hunter situation in SF...

Turner/Quizz would be a good comparison as well. But I agree, if Hillman doesn't hold onto the ball better, he won't see many, if ANY carries.

Wishful thinking. Green has looked this way for 3 weeks now and Starks has 5, 0 and 1 carries in those 3 weeks. Green ain't much but they like Starks even less.

But has Starks been fully healthy? I don't know the answer, maybe GB homers can chime in. Green has been pretty abysmal on the ground, but if Starks is fully healthy and they still show zero interest in giving him a chance, then that's pretty telling. If Starks has been held back because of his turf toe or whatever and is now getting healthy, he might get a chance.(??)

 

[Sabertooth]

I'd pick Cedric Benson up just in case he comes back for the playoffs. He's far superior as a runner to Green or Starks.

 

[need2know]

daniel thomas

 

[CentralPA]

Joique Bell if LeShoure is hurt.

Starks is not on any injury report and he didn't see the field week 7.

That does not mean Starks has been healthy. I still believe that Starks may get a shot here. I just don't see Green gaining any tough yards and I think Green Bay would like to find a more physical option.
