RB Trey Benson, ARZ (5 Viewers)

[Footballdaz]

Benson will have the rb job all to himself when he returns. Hell get 18-20 touches a game..

Every player gets hurt.. Just think Arizona wants to make sure he's 100% instead of rushing him back if he needs another week.

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

His replacements have been meh at best.

I thought Demercado looked good last night. Of course, it was Dallas so heaping of salt but yeah....

 

[FarFromHome]

I thought Demercado looked good last night.

Same. I guess my thinking is that at 3-5, Benson is the guy you ride to see if he is your guy next year. Demercado and Knight are not. Imo

I didn't think he got a ton the game he took over. thought they had someone else in there a bunch but can't really recall.

 

[BlackCrowes]

week 11 would be fine

 

[FarFromHome]

I didn't think he got a ton the game he took over. thought they had someone else in there a bunch but can't really recall.

He got 8 of the 12 non QB rushing attempts and 5 receptions. He felt like the clear lead back in a game Seahawks really put the hammer down until the 4th quarter.
Game script felt like they were down 3 scores most of the game.

it looks like Conner is still under contract next year, unless he gets cut, which I think is unlikely. I know he's getting long in the tooth and even if he's back next year he might not be as effective

I think for this year you probably roll out a Benson/Demercado duo

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

I don’t trust AZ staff to tell us anything accurate. Will have to watch the beat reporters talking about what he does in practice.

What do you mean? They were totally honest about Michael Carter getting first-team reps in practice

He’s coming back the week after my team that I sunk 80% of my FAAB is eliminated.

It was a good move at the time. Was the clear cut unchallenged bellcow RB in a decent offense. No one could have predicted that injury in his first start.

I’d be punching air too, if I didn’t trade away Pearsall, just before that first Benson start.

 

[Footballdaz]

If he's not back next week,I'm going to be screwed at rb.
What are they saving him for,next year.

I could of used him this week too..

 

[FarFromHome]

****crickets****

Kinda odd in today's age of news to hear ABSOLUTELY nothing on an NFL injury. Cardinals don't have ANY beat writers? Just complete silence. So odd. Not even a peep out of a 3rd cousin saying he was jogging at the family barbecue?

 

[tkrull2.0]

At this point I just assume Benson, Bucky, and Hampton were present at a mob hit and are in witness protection waiting for the trial to start...

 

[Schmeabs]

I think I have to drop him for E Wilson. I need to win out to make the playoffs and can't wait on him

Jacobs has a bruise, and may not miss any time - at least that’s what I saw last.

Packers RB Josh Jacobs ‘potentially’ could play this week vs. Vikings

GREEN BAY – Packers running back Josh Jacobs will not go on injured reserve due to his knee injury and "potentially" could be available this week against the Vikings.
Head Coach Matt LaFleur gave the update on Jacobs' health Monday, saying the Pro Bowl back sustained a contusion to his knee when it slammed into the MetLife Stadium turf as he was tackled on a goal-line run. Jacobs didn't return to the game, having rushed seven times for 40 yards in the 27-20 win over the Giants.

Monday’s update. I’ve seen nothing saying he could miss 2 games.

Today is a big day. We need at a minimum a limited "off to the side" practice today.

Little practice video. He seems to be at least moving. Wearing a helmet always a good sign.

[Drunken Cowboy]

I need him to play this week.

 

[efactor]

I need him to play this week.

Ditto

Been rolling out Rodriguez the past couple weeks while I wait for Benson and Hampton. Hopefully the reward is there for holding this long.

It has been McNichols in one league and Tuten in another. I needs wins in both leagues this week

​

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

I picked up him, tuten and Harvey. I just need one of them to hit.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

I have stubbornly held on to Benson at a high cost. It’s crazy.

 

[Pigskin Fanatic]

just noticed someone in my league held onto him too since the injury. deep league, but still think that was crazy.

 

[FarFromHome]

I own Benson in both my leagues and dropping him was at 0 percent for me.

 

[groin pains]

Fingers crossed for a FULL Practice by Friday.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

He’s been on my IR since he went down. In a league I am desperate for help at RB.

If RS came back too it would be a great week.

Good to see some good news. I probably won't start him this week if he plays, but it would be some welcome depth down the stretch.

Me too. I know nothing about the play except for what I’ve read here so I’m blindly optimistic.

 

[LionOfGosforth]

Picked him up for free this morning. Just depth at this point, wouldn't start him this week but the stretch run looks more than decent.

 

[menobrown]

I got one dynasty team, where I have never said or given any indication I was shopping him, though I did start a rebuild a few weeks ago and have traded off most of my valuable older players, where in the past week 4 different teams have made offers for him. Not an overly active league so kind of unusual to see so much interest in a player.

Only one offer was credible, and I think most people would have accepted it and I did have to think on it but passed, was a playoff teams first, currently projected as pick 10 but with a range of 7-12.

I think if he comes back with no physical limitations, with the way this offense looks under Brissett, he's got league winning potential or in my case pick 1.01 winning potential.

 

[ffmail4me]

any word on practice today? limited? any contact?

 

[FarFromHome]

any word on practice today? limited? any contact?

Officially limited, but no real details. We need a full practice tomorrow.

 

[Footballdaz]

If he gets in limited practice Today and plays on Sunday he's riding my bench for 1 week.. if he practices in full,I'm starting him in flex this week..

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

With all the chatter about Benson looking terrible in practice and both Bam Knight and Demercado injured, you'd think the Cardinals would bring Pierce in for a look.

Whats this now @ATB ?

 

[rockaction]

"Arizona also signed practice squad running back Jermar Jefferson to the active roster and filled his spot with running back Sincere McCormick, per team reporter Darren Urban. Those moves suggest that Trey Benson, who is on injured reserve with his practice window opened, is not ready to be activated and will not play on Sunday against the Jaguars." - ProFootballRumors

Major, major caveat: Bam's been hurt also, so it could be for him. But Jermar is intriguing. I'd just stay away from this backfield until Benson comes back. aCaarter is not even JAG and Bam never was either. Demercado, criminy, we coulda used a few spot starts outta you.

 

[loonzilla]

If Benson out, would Michael Carter be usable in flex spot?

 

[kyoun1e]

If Benson out, would Michael Carter be usable in flex spot?

All these signings tells me Benson isn't quite ready.

I think the question is with Bam. If he's hurt and unlikely to play, then yes, I'd say Carter could be worth it.

A lot of yards going to be gained in this matchup.

 

[FarFromHome]

Dear Lord,

Just activate him and give him full practices early this week. I know you know what's best. Please quit playing with me.

Amen
