Is Ricky Williams a starter now in your FF lineup? (1 Viewer)

I have him on my bench and havent really even gave though to playing him although he is outscoring my top 2 rb's Dwill &Rice.

Is he a start with confidence now or matchup play.

Just looking at him run he looks really good out there.

 
I'm definitely starting to think about him at flex or at least RB3.

On a related matter, is there any word yet on his ankle? He defnitely limped off the field at the end of the game.

 
He hasn't been but I think he should be. 4 of the first 5 weeks he scored enough pts where I should have started him. Shame on me.

 
I plan on starting him in my flex once he comes back from the bye. My other option is Reggie, I expect Ricky to do more with 10-15 touch's than Bush.

He did hurt his ankle but then came back into the game for Brown's last TD run - he was the lead blocker and tripped on his way through the hole. With a BYE next week I think Ricky will be ready for the Saints in Week 7Cobbs wasn't as fortunate - I'm hearing he's done for the year with an ACL. They'll promote Lex Hilliard off the practice squad to take his place.

Could Ricky take a few snaps in Cobbs' place now?
 
He has been a flex starter for me all year on all teams that I own him.

He looks awesome.

He's my new #3RB. Consistently getting touches. Looking sharp both rushing and recieving. PPR-wise, he is scoring well week in and week out, and the Dolphins will not go away from using him regularly. For those concerned about the ankle, he was on the field for Browns' game-winning run. Flexed out to the left side, came in motion, Brown faked the hand-off to RW before charging up the middle. No injury worries.

Buh-bye Leon. No more flex for you. :shrug:

 
Ricky stats games 1-5:

61 carries, 316 yards.

11 catches, 132 yards

3 TD's

Projected out to 16 games:

195 carries, 1011 yards

35 catches, 422 yards

9.6 TD's

:lol:

Yup. I have room at flex for a 1400+ yard back with around 10 TDs. What makes it more exciting for the RW owners, he has been consistant! No one "huge" game inflating the stats.

PPR scoring

week 1: 13.8

week 2: 8.2

week 3: 18.4

week 4: 16.6

week 5: 16.8

TD scored in 3 of 5 games.

Top scoring RB on my squad (outperforming both Forte and Westbrook...D'OH!) How can I NOT play him at this point?
