Someone dropped him in my league. I know he's injured and that Thomas has been playing well. With that said, what are the odds that he re-emerges as a solid RB who could be started every week in FFL?

It would take Pierre getting hurt again IMO to make him have any real value to start.

Even if he comes back and shares some carries...it won't likely be enough to count on starting him.

I dropped him (10 teamer) as my RB corps is dinged up and I needed Jerome Harrison.

I have Thomas and will keep Bell on my roster. The way the Saints are running the ball both Thomas and Bell could be valuable.

If you own Pierre Thomas, you have to protect that investment by handcuffing him to Mike Bell.

Mike Bell is a nice buy low right now, and I might sell PT for the right deal. Thomas has come into the 4th pretty fresh and tears up a worn out defense two weeks in a row. He had 5 yards in the first half.

PT is a good runner, but the holes he has to run in are pretty nice. Bush is still dancing, fumbling, but still Payton is giving him the ball on the ground. M. Bell will get his carries when healthy.

When Bell comes back from injury, and when he's had a couple games to get fresh, he will return to the gameplan.

The Saints like the power running style.

If that happens btw it affects Bush more than PT, in my opinion.

If I had him I'd hold, or if he's on WW wait until the news that he's about to come back. He'll have another good game.

Thomas is running great. However, the saints were awful yesterday in short yardage. There's an opening there for someone (although Evans may be the best bet for it).

i would agree. reggie has been running better this season (fumbles aside) but he's the least effective of the 3 RBs. I think Pierre and Bell will get chances early in games. whomever is running more effectively will get the bulk of the carries early.

this is where bell should prove most valuable.

How is Mike Bell looking tonight ? His stat line looks abysmal.

Looks the same. Slow as hell, LBers are always running him down with ease. Would be surprised if he makes that roster, despite a lack of depth at the position.
