So who are you starting Graham instead of? (1 Viewer)

I have Portis, Lynch and C Johnson, but am seriously considering starting Graham over one of them. Anyone else thinking along these lines. Straight performance league, TD's and yardage. No PPR.

Apparently, you're not the only one.

I am back and forth between him and Ronnie Brown. Ronnie is clearly the more talented back, but if Dunn is out than Graham should have the better opportunity. Both have juicy matchups. Real tough choice for me. I am slightly concerned that Graham will spend some time at fullback while Bennett gets the touches at RB.Last time I started Graham over Ronnie was when Ronnie faced the Patriots. Doh!

Gruden is Skeletor, Jr, in the way he calls running plays..you're as likely to see Graham go for 125 and 2 TD's as you are to see him rush for 3 times 39 yards while Michael Bennett rushes for 180 yards...



too frustrating to deal with.

Benching Jacobs.

Virtually any top-20 RB matched up against the KC run defense is a STUD. Reference Lenwhale White who put up an ungodly number of points against them a couple of weeks ago in a secondary role.

Except for Thomas JonesBTW - I'm benching Reggie Wayne for Graham this week.

As of today I have Graham starting in place of CJ as well.. Unless I hear that he will be used as a fullback then I'm keeping Graham in there. This is probably is best match up of the year.. especially if Dunn sits..

 

[Warhogs]

I currently have Graham in and Portis on the bench.

I'm considering the same. I have Portis, Ronnie, and Graham and need to pick two. As of now, I'm thinking Portis will be on the bench.

I'm surprised by the number of people benching Portis, is it the matchup or the lingering injuries? He seems unstoppable.....discuss

For me, it's simply about matchups.Two new reports:

(KFFL) The Tampa Tribune reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers FB Jameel Cook and RB Earnest Graham will fill in at fullback during Week 9 for injured FB B.J. Askew (hamstring).

and:

(KFFL) The Tampa Tribune reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Warrick Dunn (back) did not travel with the team to Kansas City for their Week 9 game.

What can expect from Graham? Who's at HB when Graham is filling in at FB?

Oh, I see the other thread. Michael Bennett? Really? I may switch back to Portis.
