McGahee back on the field? (1 Viewer)

He faces tough defenses his 1st 2 games back in Jax and SD (with Merriman and probably Castillo).
Is it time for those of us that grabbed A-Train off the ww to dump him? I wouldn't play A-Train against the Jags this week, but was holding onto him with the hopes of him being the primary ball carrier during the ff playoffs. If that isn't likely, I will look to the ww for better options.

I have not found anything about what was said when he met with the media.....which was supposed to be almost an hour ago. I will keep looking.

As a guy who picked up A-Train to help for a few weeks......
That's what I'm thinking. No way I start a Buffalo RB against Jacksonville this week (tough run defense) or San Diego next week (Bills likely to be down big early). And it sounds like McGahee will almost certainly be back by that time.

He was my most expensive player in the Subscriber contest, so I hope he comes back and can have a huge week or 4.
Thanks for the info. Since I handcuffed Willis with A-Train this quote is exactly why I was hoping Willis would not return for awhile:
If McGahee does dress and play on Sunday, Jauron says he'll be closely monitored.
"If he's up he won't be the only running back on the roster on game day, so we can watch him closely," said Jauron. "We can limit his play time, we can divide carries. There are lots of ways we can go if he's healthy enough to play."
In light of that news I feel both Willis and A-train are rendered worthless. Some teams you can share some carries and still get legit points from one or both backs but there's barely enough fantasy points from the Bills RB's to support one RB. Bummer. Since my only other starter worthy player is Eddie Kennison who plays on Thursday looks like I'm benching A-Train and Willis for Eddie.

RB McGahee Returns To Pratice, Questionable
SportsLine.com - [Full Article]
Buffalo Bills RB Willis McGahee returned to practice on Wednesday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. HC **** Jauron was concerned about McGahee's physical status after missing two weeks with broken ribs. "It's going to affect him in terms of conditioning and he'll have to get used to the twisting and turning," Jauron said. McGahee had a similar take on his status for this weekend saying, "We're just trying to see if I can go out there and do certain things as far as moving around, so we can't make that decision right now."
