Not to hijack, but Cowboy, have you heard anything on JJ's status?He's the one person I can't get any real info on.Your boy Tyson Thompson?Also, how is everyone already picking these guys up off the waiver. My leagues are all locked while the games are being played.Just when I pry my way back up into playoff eligibility this happens. Stick a fork in me I'm DONE.

I am in a league where you can pick up anytime and also in one that you can't pick up until games are done.Your boy Tyson Thompson?Also, how is everyone already picking these guys up off the waiver.

I've also never understood that either. Must be an open waiver wire. First come first serve to the Waiver Wire does not seem fair to me at all. It's a system that rewards people that LIVE on the computer 24/7. I don't get it either.Your boy Tyson Thompson?Also, how is everyone already picking these guys up off the waiver.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Were you towards the end of a 12-team draft as well? 1st and 4th round picks already injured. 3rd round pick Gonzalez doing squat. Wait a minute...Djax and Deuce owner here.
My WR1 and RB1!!
Good Grief. (And I was 3-1 about to be 4-1)
( At least my league-mates now have a chance)
In one league I now have W Dunn as my RB #1 and Brown #2I feel your pain brother.......Clayton and johnson in particular. I'm glad you can't swear on here because just thinking and typing their names ticks me off.deuce wasnt my RB1. its a keeper, and i have alexander and culpepper as well. However, my WR's are Clayton, Johnson and Rod smith. My season, which was on life support, is now dead. Barlow is now my RB2No offense, but the way the entire Saints team looked yesterday, even with a healthy Deuce if this ends your season, you were on life support anyway.He wasn't going to win anything for you. We're you're playing catchup like the Saints were and will be, rushing yardage will not be piling up.and my season is over
. Fortunately I can start TO, Chad Johnson, and Fitz at WR. 
and Gonzo at TE (he will get it going) 
Oct 10 Cowboys running back Julius Jones injured his left leg in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Eagles. The ailment appeared to be to his ankle, and Jones did not return in the second half. "I am fine," Jones told the team's official web site after the game. "I could have played today, but I will play next week...It is tough to watch when we are playing that well. I really wanted to get out there." Views: The Cowboys had the luxury of a big lead, and they did not need to rush Julius back on the field. Bill Parcells has been eager to get his backups more looks, and rookie Tyson Thompson carried the load for nearly the entire second half. We fully expect Jones to play against the Giants in week six, and Thompson is not a threat to his job.Not to hijack, but Cowboy, have you heard anything on JJ's status?He's the one person I can't get any real info on.Your boy Tyson Thompson?Also, how is everyone already picking these guys up off the waiver.

I actually think he could have played yesterday in a closer game. With such a lead, they put Thompson in and he did a decent job. But you know, if you would have asked me last night about Deuce I would have said the same exact thing so you never know.Not to hijack, but Cowboy, have you heard anything on JJ's status?He's the one person I can't get any real info on.Your boy Tyson Thompson?Also, how is everyone already picking these guys up off the waiver.

cmon, give me a little credit. that was a pretty good team after the draft. and if you dont think so just say it is cause im feeling pretty crappy right now. need a little pick me up.Shockey should be gone by next week with a knee injury. I have lost Walker, Burleson, Jackson, Vick, and Deuce to knee injuries. The way I figure it, Branch or Shockey is the next to go for my team, and after seeing your list Shockey makes more sense.yea, thanks guysAt least you are getting good production out of your TE'show bout this sh#t: my team after the draft

Thompson is not a threat to his job when healthy, I agree. However, Julius did miss extensive time last season and is dinged here in week 4. I do expect Julius to play next week but adding Tyson to your roster isn't a bad move. He is the backup and the way he runs, he could break a long one at anytime. He kind of reminds me of Tatum Bell who is very fast and on somedays it just looks like he can take it to the house.Oct 10 Cowboys running back Julius Jones injured his left leg in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Eagles.

I don't think this issue has much to do with it, but Brooks' play certainly does. He's a bum, and please don't post fantasy rankings on him. I'm talking about him as a NFL QB.what does this do to Stallworth(less)'s fantasy value?
NOT HILARIOUS BAD. IT WAS A GOOD DRAFT. JUST HILARIOUS THAT SOMEONE COULD GET HIT THAT HARD BY INJURY.SORRY TO LAUGH.cmon, give me a little credit. that was a pretty good team after the draft. and if you dont think so just say it is cause im feeling pretty crappy right now. need a little pick me up.Shockey should be gone by next week with a knee injury.

I know my FBG's or at least fellow Cowboy fans. You looked like a fella hurting at RB and I just threw the name out there. Then someone asked politely about Julius Jones condition since he was dinged in yesterday's game and the minihijack was set.

Yeah he wasn't great but when you have a team full of Roy Williams', Trent Green's and Tony Gonzales' a season can go in the tank pretty freaking fast.
I am 2-3 after this week in my Yahoo league. I do have Moss and Westbrook but the rest of my team blows at this point.
I am in the same predicament. If the recovery is like Edge (a better RB injured about the same time), you cannot expect much from him in 2006.
I think this is a good take on the situation. I like A Smith better, but the Saints probably won't be leading a lot of games. They'll more likely be passing.
Only thing is...I think that Stecker has more upside than Smith. He has some speed and exposiveness and can catch the ball better out of the backfield. I am trying to get him as a flyer in my league but I'm not counting on him...just a flyer.Smith averaged 3 yds per carry late in the game? Does he have anything left in the tank?
