I'd trade him straight up for any of those guys.I'm not down on Mathews, but yeah, I'd take AP or Foster. Forte maybe, but probably. Fred Jackson too.

Well I already have Rice and Jackson, so I can't upgrade Mathews to either of them

I seriously doubt you'd find owners of any of those guys willing to trade straight up for Mathews.

Unless Matthews gets 40 pts this Monday he'll still be behind Forte in my non ppr league

Crap,F.Jones, Ingram and now Tolbert out. I have to start Foster, Ball & Ridley. I need a miracle this week.

Who in the heck is this guy? What happened to Jordan Toddman?

Mathews will be carrying teams to wins this week. Everything is setting up for just a monster monster week. 30 carries likely against a stout KC pass defense.

So he's a 5'9 208 lbs. back 2 years out of Syraucuse. I thought their draft pick Toddman would've been the backup. Never really heard of this guy but anyone backing up the oft-injured Mathews is worth knowing.
But I imagine that if something happened to Ryan this week (knock on wood), then Tolbert could/would be back by next week.

How bad is Tobert hurt? I havent paid attention but if theyre saying Mathews has a groin pull, this Brinkley could have value for the next 1-2 weeksMathews out with a ruptured uterus, allowing some RUDY to flourish in his absence.

"The Unknown" (Brinkley) now has a concussion, so with the short week, he might not be playing next week. Matthews has a groin pull now, and Tolbert has his hand and hammy problems...So who suits up vs. the Pack- Hester?

If Mathews, Tolbert, and Brinkley are all out, it would probably be a combination of Hester and Todman."The Unknown" (Brinkley) now has a concussion, so with the short week, he might not be playing next week.

Tolbert for as long as he can avoid boo boo's that hurt. Tolbert could be huge if healthy. Get him if you can.It's hard to imagine Tennessee benching CJ2K Just because of all the $ they gave him. They would look like idiots, unless they ask him to fake an injury. However, I have Ringer in 2 leagues sitting at the end of the bench. With woodhead being arrested @ 1:30am for groping a girl at a halloween party in a bar, Ridley is a getting a little closer to seeing some playing time. Well see?Bush if your desperate. Curtis Brinkley looked pretty good but He has a concussion, He leaped on two different plays with reckless abandon and looked good. When I watched the game I thought to myself that he is going to get hurt. Then I heard about the concussion.J. Baldwin looked good for K.C. as well if you need a WR. Bowe and Breaston will get theirs as well though.

Per Rotoworld
According to the San Diego Union-Tribune's Kevin Acee, "it is feared" Ryan Mathews (groin) will be unavailable for Week 9.
Acee is one of the most reliable beat writers in the country, so his word should not be taken lightly. With San Diego's Wednesday practice coming less than 48 hours after Monday's loss, Mathews will almost certainly sit out. That means the first real clue as to his Sunday status will come on Thursday. You should tentatively plan on being without him this weekend.

If Tolbert is back to healthy and practicing, I'm all for it. Let Mathews sit and watch Tolbert do well. Maybe that will motivate him a little to get rid of the dress and start playing football. And a healthy Tolbert this week could be a sneaky excellent play against Green Bay.Per RotoworldAccording to the San Diego Union-Tribune's Kevin Acee, "it is feared" Ryan Mathews (groin) will be unavailable for Week 9.Acee is one of the most reliable beat writers in the country, so his word should not be taken lightly.

If Matthews is out, Tolbert will be getting just about all of the RB targets out of the backfield this week, so the potential for touches via receptions is not trivial.

I like Tolbert without Mathews more than I like Mathews without Tolbert. Tolbert's pass-blocking goes a long way to aid the offense's movement of the ball. Mathews', not so much.
