Panicked looking at my RB situation...help!!! WHIR (1 Viewer)

[wheeleke]

10-team, 2 QB, .5 PPR league (re-draft)

My roster:
QB - Prescott, Romo, Manning, Kaepernick

RB - Elliott, Lacy, James White, Jacquizz Rodgers

WR - Nelson, Landry, Hilton, Maclin

TE - Eifert, Miller

DEF - Philadelphia

K - Bryant

Not sure if I should try and bolster my RB group via trade or just stick to waivers. Picked up Rodgers (and dropped Ryan Mathews) in the event Martin doesn't play/practice this week. Potential waiver pick ups are:

Bilal Powell, Alfred Morris, Chris Thompson, Thomas Rawls, Dwayne Washington, Jalen Richard, DeAndre Washington

Considered trading Ezekiel Elliott (who is on bye this week) for Devonta Freeman and DeMarco Murray (would probably need to trade Elliott and one of my WR or Elliott and James White) for both of them. But that's the only way I would consider trading him. I'm 4-2 right now and I'm playing one of the not very good teams in our league this week, so I could still potentially pull off a win and not have to make any drastic changes. Thoughts?!!

I think White is a solid play as long as Lewis is not back so you should have two starters for as long as Lacy is out.  Rodgers looked good but I think Martin is back so he becomes a lot less useful and probably worth dropping eventually. 

I would look to pick up Powell because he has been out-snapping Forte over the last couple games.  A lot has to do with the Jets getting whacked and in catch up mode but he still does have some PPR value in those cases. 

Is Knile Davis available?  If Lacy is out an extended period of time (and it looks like he will be), Davis might be worth an add. 

What about Ka'Deem Carey?  He looked healthy and took away a bunch of snaps from Howard last week.  He might be a decent what the heck pick up.

Knile Davis was grabbed before me on waivers. Don Jackson (their practice squad RB who was called up) practiced with their first team yesterday. I thought about Powell and may just drop Eifert.

You could drop Eifert and Romo too honestly (I know they SAY he'll start again, but I'm not buying it AND his return seems to be getting pushed back as well)

Assuming this is not Keeper, Zeke for Murray / Freeman works if you are worried about your depth.  I would lean toward keeping Zeke and trying to fill the 2nd spot.  Is Chris Ivory available, he's coming back for the Jags and has been picking up work.  White is good but .5 PPR hurts a bit.  I wouldn't drop Romo until the Dallas situation is set.  If he does come back and is anointed the starter you'll loose prescott.
