FOUR very talented RBs - I guarantee that one of them will help your team a greatly down the stretch - the question is: Which one?

Tanner - I picked him up a couple weeks ago in my dynasty league. Jerruh loves the kid and he will get touches this week. He could be Dallas' short yardage/goal line back for the rest of the season. A deep sleeper for this week.

Tai Jones - reminds of J Charles. Ideal pick-up if McFadden's mid foot sprain is more serious than advertized (and there is a reasonable chance that it could be).

Hunter - Since Gore started to run hot, Hunter has lost touches. But when was the last time Gore made it through a complete season?

Ringer - Most NFL observers believe that Johnson's complete lack of production is not all the TENN O-line's fault, but that Johnson has lost his burst this year. This week against Indy will be the test as Munchak will give him "a complete complement of carries to evaluate CJ and the run game fully". If he fails to impress, we should see much more Ringer the rest of the season.

If you had to coose now to gamble for the rest of the year, who would it be?

 
Taiwan Jones....

Like the OP already stated, Jones is a Jamaal Charles clone. All this guy needs is a chance.

 
Gore made it through 4 of his 6 seasons with 229 or more carries and 1,000 or more yards. He's a tough guy that's not injury prone more than any other running back. He is aging, but the injury prone label is bogus.

I agree that Ringer is the guy you take a shot at, maybe Tennessee will have the sense to bench Chris Johnson if he struggles against Indy.

Cant see a $50 million dollar man getting benched - they would look like fools for giving away all that green.

 
While I can see Ringer getting a chance and working his tail off, I just don't see him producing better than a RB3 even if CJ were out. The rest could.

Tanner has to unseat more players than the rest but I like the kid.

Hunter could be a RB2 type if Gore were out, I don't see more than that on average.

Jones is the most likely IMO to produce well, and I dropped him earlier in the season :wall:
