Worth an add? Just announced as McFadden backup.....anything here?

McFadden starting to break down a little after heavy workload lately.

Turbin is the backup based on reports out of Dallas(I'm here in Dallas).

Coaches saying he's impressed already. bla bla

What you're betting is that he's worth a bench spot hoping McFadden gets hurt.

I lost Foster and Bell after going 7-1. I'm now 7-3, so I'm stashing him on my bench.

If he went off I'd never get him on waivers. He's a lottery ticket IMO

I'm 7-3, Same...... stashed him on my bench for Spiller. Thank you.

I'm wondering if he's a better stash and even a better start this week over James white.

White sucks. He'll probably play more snaps than turning but he played a lot of snaps last week and had minimal involvement.

Turning might be in line for 8-10 carries behind McFadden and could be fantasy hold if McFadden gets more dinged up.

Hmmm

How did he surpass Rod Smith just like that? They say he learned the playbook in 2 days. What the heck was CMike doing, huffing glue in the parking lot?

 

[richn]

CMike obviously sucks.

Turbin is worth an add...coaches are supposedly impressed that he came right in and got to work. With a game tomorrow and Turkey Day too he could be in line for some work.

What are people in dynasty thinking about Turbin? At moment he is a lotto ticket for 2016. What is Dallas looking to do at RB this offseason?

I think it is now clear that Turbin isn't anything special. I'll pass.

With the players available in the draft, plus the free agents who will be available (Forte, L Miller, etc.) plus the possibility of the return of DeMarco Murray via trade, there are better options. Turbin didn't wow anyone with his 50-199-1 stat line in 2015 or in his seasons with Seattle. He's a good reliable backup and that's about it.
