Drafted him in every league I'm in.All in the very late rounds . . .

I think he plays this week...sparingly.

Considering how poorly the other Packer RBs have played, Morency very well could wind up starting if he could ever get on the field.

Still a huge upgrade over "Finger tip tackle Jackson" I have never seen a guy just fall down when a defender gets with in a foot of him before, Jackson is pathetic.

Agree totally. Morency looked good last year.

From Rotoworld:

Morency expected to return to Packers lineup

Vernand Morency (knee) practiced again Thursday, and is expected to face the Vikings on Sunday.

This probably means DeShawn Wynn, who had been filling in for Morency as Green Bay's third-down back, will be deactivated in Week 4. Morency should slowly be worked into the lineup and definitely isn't worth using against a stout Vikings front seven. He still should be picked up if he's on waiver wires. Sep. 27 - 12:51 pm et

Who would be their regular starter considering they are possibly deactivating Jackson for him. Don't ask for a link, just read the other thread.

I finally gave in. . . . .

Dropping Jacking and Grabbing Morency. . . .worst case is that its a waste of a roster move. . .best case is that I get depth ar RB.

My opinion is that if Mo doesnt perform, then the GB running game will be a 3 headed RBBC all year on a team that doesnt have a very good running game to begin with. . .at that poin it wont matter who you have, they will all be worth less.

Mo is the last chance they have to have a starting do anything. . . .so why not take a chance on it and drop one of the other failing GB RB's if you own one.

This is great news. I'm in a 16 man league in which we start 3 RB's. I'd be happy with 5-10 touches this Sunday, but, that could be wishful thinking.
