I'm the #1 seed for the playoffs (10-team, standard scoring). I'm thinking at this point having a handcuff (or two) to my starting RBs may be more valuable than bench depth (which I am unlikely to need to start). My team is:
QB: Luck, Wilson
RB: DJohnson, LMurray, Booker, TColeman, DLewis
WR: Beckham, Hilton, Cooks, Crowder, Watkins
TE: Kelce
DST: Cardinals
K: Haushka
I'm strongly considering dropping Lewis for a handcuff (no PPR and White isn't going away ... just don't see the value for my team). How would you rank them (Ellington, Richard, Forsett)?
DJohnson is by far my team MVP, but is Ellington that attractive as a handcuff (or is there reason to think Arians goes to some committee, which has always been Ellington's role in the past)? Oakland has tried the 3-headed RB monster earlier in the season, but seem to have settled into making LMurray the clear #1 with Richard his #2. Forsett was just signed, but has had success with coach Kubiak. His style fits into what Kubiak seems to like from a RB, Booker has been underperforming, and there just aren't many bodies at RB left in Denver. So I can see arguments for all three.
I suppose I could pick up 2 of them. But the drop would have to be Coleman or Watkins, neither of which I should need but they could hurt me on my opponent's roster (the league #2 seed owns DFreeman).
Leave a link and I'll try to answer any questions of yours.
