Week 2 FA Running Backs : Pick One (1 Viewer)

Stipulation is who would you most trust as a consistent flex starter for the remainder of the season? Then who would be most likely to have the upside to be a successful starting RB2 or so?

None of the above is not an option because this is "Most likely". If you have LT2 and ADP then I'm very happy for you... but this is a general question hoping to aid folks with FAAB today.

I own Michael Bush so I am a little biased, but as of right now, Bush longterm(who knows when) RB#2 and Pittman as Flex for the next little while.

I would look for consistency at the flex, and Morris at least would at least get a handful of touches and goal-line carries. Moreso than Pittman.

Bush has the biggest upside and is worth stashing, but his playing time directly coincides with DMac's health. If he can crack the lineup, he'd be a solid RB2.

Only Bush is available in my league, but I'd take Morris, although the edge between Morris and Pittman is closer than I thought it would be.

Despite his weak showing with short yardage situations, Pierre Thomas may be a good pickup if Deuce is not the same anymore.

A not-so-well hidden AC thread. Nice.

This is sorta my line of thinking. Pittman = Goldmine in TD heavy leagues - Worried about inconsistencies as goalline back. LIkely to post 8-10 pts one week then zero the next. Bush = With Fargas out and DMac now suffering from turf toe... might have an opening. Also has the skills to fill in nicely and post pretty solid numbers when given the chance. Morris = NE Has too many backs to really provide anything reliable more than 8 for 35 types of afternoons... Faulk in for 3rd downs... Maroney getting his slice of the pie...etc.
