Best RB Sleepers for the Playoffs? (1 Viewer)

[Grizant]

I want to know some opinions on speculative RB roster additions for the fantasy playoffs. I am sure that many fantasy owners who are poised for the playoffs are looking to add that week 14-16 fantasy monster. For example, I think David Wilson could be this type of player. Any other suggestions? Thoughts?

Thanks!

Super long shot = Cyrus Gray

Has a shot at moving up in the rotation, has talent, and the way KC is using Charles it would not surprise me if he can't finish the season. CLE/OAK/INDY 14-16.

chris johnson has become the correct answer to this question.

The only problem is, he slept the entire 2011 season, and has taken a siesta in 3 games so far.

Cedric Benson will have fresh legs in week 14.

Strictly looking at which teams have 2 or more "good" rushing matchups in wk14-16:

MIA plays @SF, JAC, BUF in wk14-16.

KC plays @CLE, @OAK, IND in wk14-16.

NYJ plays @JAC, @TEN, SD in wk14-16.

SD plays @PIT, CAR, NYJ in wk14-16.

So um, get Bush, Charles, and Mathews? LOL.

Or their backups as sleepers, I suppose, as Wadsworth pointed out with Cyrus Gray / Shaun Draughn.

Similarly, Hillis. He can be got for next to nothing now, the schedule is cake, and KC can't keep using Charles like this.

I don't care what lie the doctors are feeding us about 8 weeks, Cedric Benson is not going to return this year! DeAngelo Williams had the dreaded Lisfranc in 2010 and after 6 games never returned. McFadden made it 7 games last year but was done for the season. In 2008 in baseball Chien-Ming Wang suffered the injury in June and was wearing a boot for 6 weeks but the rehabilitation process was so difficult he was forced to miss 4 1/2 months at least!All of these guys thought they were going to be able to return but week after week went by and they all still had pain. Do yourself a favor and drop the guy and don't look back!

Exactly. I dropped Benson this week to pickup a bye-week-filler defense for wk7.
