I'd imagine we'll hear more about him this afternoon. I think if he isn't practicing by Thursday or Friday, it's safe to say he's out again.

He would be fine today if it weren't for the hamstring 3 weeks ago. He should be getting closer. I guess there was no atl practice yesterday?

I don't think most teams practice on Tuesdays. It's usually Wednesday/Thursday/Friday for the major practice time.
Guess it doesn't matter now, I would just like to avoid winning the Bucket of #### award at this point.

I expect(and hope) that he sits this week out. Especially now that the streak is over. Falcons are better off another week without him if it means that he finishes strong. Could be a great buy low for owners who have 5+ wins and are looking ahead towards hte playoffs.

Still sitting on him on my 6-1 team. Would love for him to come back by Week 11 at least since that's when Dez has a bye. I can make due for the next couple weeks without him. But man it would be nice to see him get back to form soon.

wait... so the 2-4 Falcons (allowing 26 ppg) are considering the 3-4 Cardinals (allowing 23 ppg) a weak opponent? Seems the game is winnable, but not so much that they can rest a guy just because their opponent is "weak".
FWIW, I'm hoping they do bench him this week and he gets healthy. I need him to start playing soon, but prefer a healthy White.

He's helped kill two of my teams this season.

Might send Stacy for him

Just traded Bowe and DeAngelo Williams for Roddy. I need WRs badly and Bowe has been nothing this year. Maybe a slight overpay but my RBs are Spiller, Richardson, Lacy, Ridley, Vereen, and Andre Brown. So could definitely afford to move Williams. Just gotta hope Roddy comes back soon and just gives me more than Bowe has.

Now the offer is Stevie Johnson for Roddy soo trade for Roddy? I have to use Stacy Wright or Floyd until White plays

I actually think it's a good thing he's taking the time to get this right. He may have never sat out long enough to have the ankle 100% as long as that stupid streak was alive. Perhaps the hamstring injury was a blessing in disguise for his owners, or those who bought dirt cheap (this guy).
Consider this: Harry Douglas just dropped 147 yards and a TD on a decent defense. Harry. F'ing. Douglas.
Wait till White gets back and gets all those targets...

Maybe for the teams that trade for him. But I doubt too many teams that drafted him.

He'll give teams a quality starting option for wks 10-16
That may help a team that is already contending, but he's not going to "carry" anybody's team

I love his late season schedule, where he gets the Bills, Packers, and Skins. Although facing the 49ers in Week 16 is less than desirable.Insein said:
He won't help you much getting into the playoffs unless you bought low on him (like I did). Traded Reggie Wayne for him two weeks ago, that one is probably going to work out for me.

I lucked out and drafted decent enough around him to make up for the turd that's been laid. Hoping he gives me something later in the year.
He'd be a beast right now if he would have shut it down for the first three weeks. Dope.

Yeah Roddy will help you win a championship if your other draft picks are firing on all cilindars.
Unfortunately my first two picks being Spiller and Chris Johnson that's not the case for me. Can't get much worse for your first three picks.
BRB gotta go PTTS.

Keep 2 league. Try:
Rd 1 Spiller
Rd 2 RRice
Rd 3 RWhite
Rd 4 Gronk
Rd 5 Vereen
= Oops
I wouldn't start him, and because of byes, I'm probably going to start Beasley or Khiry Robinson as my flex. I honestly hope that they hold him out, so he doesn't aggravate the hammy or ankle. IF they win this week, they are only 1 game out of the playoffs (although there are a lot of teams between them and that last spot). Their playoffs hopes aren't gone, but if they are going to have any shot in the playoffs, they need more of a receiving threat than just Harry Douglas.
