McFadden going forward (1 Viewer)

Actually his schedule for this week through week 16 is so-so:

KC - Ranked 28th vs. the rush. But Mc is returning from surgery and I'd be surprised to see him get more carries than Fargas at this point

Cincy - 2nd vs. the run.

Dallas - 11th

Pitt. - 1st

Wash. - 25th

Denver - 8th

Clev. - 31st

So the best games will be this week and vs. Wash. in Wk. 14 and Clev. in Wk. 16. He didn't show much prior to hurting his knee and the Raiders have no passing game, though at least the O-line's integrity is bolstered by Gallery's return. I don't see how Fargas can be completely dismissed because he's run the best of the three Raider backs so far. Yes, the Raiders will want to see what McFadden has but on the other hand can't push him much because he's still on the mend.

Although Cincy has been good, I'm interested to see how Mendenhall will handle the Bengals run D, considering he just tore up Denver's...Problem with McFadden is, with almost all of these games, I can def see Oak falling way behind and giving up on the run.

Good point and one I was remiss to forget to mention. Overall I am not enamored with McFadden. My experience with him last year was rotten. He was a drag on my roster and when I re-signed him for the last part of the season's "easy schedule upside" he did nothing.

I agree, and for those who have watched him play (Rather then just create a figment of what you think McFadden is)..He has along way to go to being a successful running back. They need to get him the ball in the open field more (screens, etc) and the Raiders just don't run that type of offense
 
"Skates" McFadden's prior results ARE an indication of future performance! Caveat Emptor! Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Picking up or trading for DMC and expecting production could be labeled insanity. Keep on moving - nothing to see here.

 
I've finally moved on from him in a dynasty after continuously being fooled by his "potential". He's just not very good. He's fast but only in a straight line. His vision is poor and he has a lack of ability to change direction on the fly. He'd be great is he had a straight ahead running lane but that seldom happens.
