So My RB's need help. Tarik Cohen looks good.  In my waiver claim should I drop Danny Woodhead who is already injured and likely to miss multiple games, or Rex Burkhead, who looks to be the bottom of the pecking order in the muddy waters of the N.E. running back pool?

Woodhead projected to be out 4-6 weeks per Adam Schefter

I'd drop both. If Cohen is available in your league there has to be other guys also that you can add that would be better than Woodhead and Burkhead.  No one will pick up Woodhead with his injury and you can preemptively pick him up in a few weeks if you want to.

 Thanks for responding to my question. I totally agree with the first reply you got here. It looks like Gillislee is going to be the workhorse and will also get the  carries at the goal line    

 BB really trusts  White and I  believe Burkhead  will be third in line for  touches

Either - they're considering IR for Woodhead which would bring him back in 8 weeks. 

Burkhead seems to be the odd man out. If Gilislee were to go down, maybe Burkhead gets the nod, or maybe not.

so yeah - hard choice.
