TJ/Benson Dynasty Owners do we need to stash (1 Viewer)

[tmanubc]

I'm just wondering if I need to carry Adrian Peterson because of the possiblity that that backfield splits. We have fairly small rosters and dont' want to give up the space unless the concensus is that somebody gets moved. Obviously I'm not familiar with their contract situations so I'm looking for a little advice.

Peterson is definitely good enough to be a primary backup to either of these backs. That being said, there's nothing wrong with having three good RBs on the roster - I don't foresee the Bears trading TJ or Benson. Both are under contract at reasonable rates.

i had been watching AP the whole time since i saw what he could do last year, actually i picked him up last year hoping he would sign elsewhere but he didnt, but i just grabbed him this year cause i only have TJ but i can see a senario where TJ is gone and AP is the main backup to Benson....and with the way AP runs....who knows. He is a good rb ala L.Betts. He's worth grabbing in nice rize roster leagues 22+

This is a bad handcuff. AP is not going to be anything other then a third string RB. If either jones or benson goes down then the other becomes the full time RB and AP gets 4-6 carries a game. Personally, I would prefer to keep that third RB spot for someone that produces week to week as opposed to try to handuff a hancuff. Trying to lock in these three backs is similar IMO to trying to tie up roster spots with lundy/dayne/gado. If you have this three headed monster on your roster I don't expect you would go all that deep into the playoffs.

or even make the playoffs

If your roster is small, I wouldnt put Peterson on it. Chances are he'll still be available if/when Jones was traded.

Other than maybe Denver who tried to trade for him last year, I dont see anybody being interested enough in Jones to give up enough to lure him away from Chicago. Jones is the best third down option in Chicago by a big margin.
