I think in really depends on your options. AP is better than 75% of the backs out there even dinged up and not a great match up next week against a Bears team who will be looking to redeem themselves after a humiliating loss at home.That said, most teams don't have luxury of a better option even considering the above. It will be a tough decision but he's on my bench as of now for Tolbert. I believe they both have the same ceiling but Tolbert is in a better situation even splitting time.
I believe this will be the case for most. Backs I can see with good match up this week that have a chance to outperform AP that may not be every week starters J. CharlesTolbert BGEBradshawMcCoyMcFadden
Bradshaw an every week starter, but I have only started him 2 weeks. AD's bye and MJDs bye. I'm starting AD, MJD, and Rice over Bradshaw...I'm not going to overthink it...Strikethrough's are every week starters.I would add Hightower.
Checked the boxscore...Saw they played the Bills ranked #32 (last against the run)Bears ranked #2
I believe he was trying to say if you are in a normal league and your team does not have 3 of the top 4 picks this year (if you had Chris Johnson you would have the quadruplets) Bradshaw is an every week start. Obviously your case is different than what he was talking about, though I am sure a large majority are sitting in the exact same position you are.Bradshaw an every week starter, but I have only started him 2 weeks.

U of Minn, outdoors. weather looks to be decent just cold.
You all need to stop playing in 8 man leagues....I don't know a team that would have any of these players on their bench in 12-14 man leagues....That being said, i traded A/P in my dynasty league 3-weeks ago. I would say that 90% of the legue was pissed....Now i am in the semi finals....The vikings are a mess right now. If you have a viable option i would give serious consideration to sitting him.
4 team league?
This!I don't think you can compare this to the Chris Johnson thread from last week. Johnson was not injured and going against a horrible run team. For many of us, lineups must be set before 1pm Sunday. We won't know his status. Maybe they shut him down...?
He has historically carved up Chicago...I know last year he was not that effective but this team will lean on him this week big time. Frasier is playing for his job. The Vikings are not just going to pack up and quit....especially agaisnt a division rival who they would like nothing more than to put a ***** in their playoff armor. Also this is the NFL players are all playing for their job every week and ADP is a premier player....shut him down...are you friggin kidding me?Don't over think this. ADP will be playing and getting a major workload.
You could have very easily drafted those four RBs....Hillis was undrafted in many leagues.

Yea, I love it when posters do this.I *think* I'm sitting ADP this week and rolling with D.McFadden (v DEN) and J.Stewart (v ARZ). DMAC is obviously a start, but not 100% sure I sit ADP for Stewart yet.these are my 3 starting rb's. Stewart goes in the flex.anyone who sits AP in the playoffs is crazy, unless they tell us he is really actually hurt.
Yea. I know. Problem is that there's more to this situation than just a bad matchup: nothing to play for, dinged up, bad matchup... just seems like a trap to me. Maybe I'll just start 3 WR's and McFadden...
agreed with this ... he has historically played well against the core group of this chicago D (although they are playing really well right now), he has a coaching staff that wants a job, he has a ownership group who is playing for a new stadium and still wants the money that AP brings in the door, plus he has his own stats to play for ... he is in the lineup even though the situation isn't great.
Got to love these - Just so make you feel a little better, 12 man leagueAP - #1 picksbonomo said:
Tolbert has been pretty much rock solid since being given a chance. In my league, he's outscored AP 3 out of the last 4 weeks. Not saying with certain that I'm going this way but Tolbert lately has been at least consistant what AP seems to be feast or famine.
for all of those weeks aside from this week Ryan Mathews was out. This week they split touches right down the middle to similar results.
I'd probably start AP over Lyndon Baines Johnson too.It's ADP or bust. Of course it doesn't hurt with my other 2 starters being LBJ and McFadden.
