Before the start of the season who would have thought having guys like

Darby

B. Jackson/Kuhn

Betts/Ivory

Green-Ellis/Morris

Torain

Tolbert

Maurice Morris

would be so valuable going into week 4. I was lucky enough to grab Darby in a couple of leagues and am still considering starting him over the likes of R. Rice/J. Best. And to think that the possibility of going to an 18 game season. By the end of the year teams will be sporting half of the CFL rosters.

What Lunch Pail RB are you starting this week?????????

 
Probably Brandon Jackson in place of Pierre Thomas or Jahvid Best. I will also be plugging in DeAngelo Williams and pray that the coaching staff wakes up this week and utilizes him.

Yes......I consider Brandon Jackson "lunch pail" because he is on a high scoring team that moves the ball up and down the field, yet he has not been able to land the starting gig for 4 years.

 
:boxing: Danny Woodhead and Laurence Maroney:ph34r:

I'm stuck with him as my only option at flex if AJ is out.

Maroney :boxing:

Reggie Bush and Moreno both go down with injuries and I also have Turner so I need to keep Snelling on my roster as well.

 
If Best doesn't play, I have Spiller and I was only able to get the Betts/Ivory combo off waivers. Now I have to determine which one of those to play :boxing:

Peterson's on the bye so hopefully I won't be this desparate every week.

With Peterson on bye I am also starting Maroney. I could start Josh Morgan instead of him, but probably won't...

 
Starting RBs (along with expectations pre-season)

RB1: Darren McFadden (Ride that train!)

RB2: Ronnie Brown (Needs to finally turn it on!)

RB3: Beanie Wells (Last week's numbers make me encouraged)

FLEX: Ray Rice (I know if I bench him, he is going to blow up; Since I am starting him, he will probably not play...)

 
In one league I have Grant on IR, R. Bush injured and Charles on bye.

Since I have a lot of WR injuries also, I am starting Hillis and Chester Taylor at RB and Kuhn at flex.

Oof.

 
Since I'm afraid S. Jackson will give me a zero I'm rolling out J. Forsett. This is not the way I envisioned my season.

 
RB1 - LT

RB2 - Forte

FL - Tolbert

FL - L.Betts or Lee Evans

I have Peterson and T. Jones with bye weeks, and S.Rice is out. UGH!

(DYNASTY)

 
Waiting to hear about Rice and Best, but if they can't go, I'll be starting Ken Darby and C.J. Spiller. It should be a fun week.

 
Due to the Pierre Thomas injury I was planning to start McCoy as both my RB1 and RB2, but apparently that is against the rules. So I will roll out either Betts or BJGE. I drafted Barber as my RB3 for injury scenarios - but he is on bye this week.

Hate this. Playing my B-I-L this weekend and all his players are healthy.

 
With Best Injured and Jamaal Charles on bye, I am looking at starting Maroney and Torain....... GOOD GRIEF!!!

Having to bench Sjax and going with Arien Foster and Lesean McCoy.
 
Must start 2 at RB

Can Start 1 at FLEX

ADP - BYE

Arian Foster - RB1

Jahvid Best - *RB2 or FLEX or Bench

DeAngello Williams - *RB2 or FLEX or Bench

LT - *RB2 or FLEX or Bench

*TBA - GTD(s)

 
League 1 start 3: SJax, Best, B Jackson, Maroney, Buckhalter, M Morris

Going with B Jackson + at least 1 of SJax and Best if they play, then probably Maroney or Morris (if Best is out)

League 2 start 2 with return points: ADP, Spiller, M Goodson, M Bush, Buckhalter, Torain

Going with Spiller and Goodson with ADP on bye. Goodson is actually decent with return points, but still...Spiller and Goodson? Yikes Might actually drop DeAndre Levy for Betts and start him instead.

 
I stupidly traded Floyd for Moreno in a moment of weakness just so I could avoid these headaches.

have a solid backup RB for a change, I said to myself..... that was on Thursday evening, just hours before Moreno hurt himself. Guh.

I have Maroney.

But might drop him for Hart.

Betts? Probably not starting now.

Darby? Who knows, I like tghe matchup though.

Torain, Kuhn, etc. No, no, no.

I would like to see Mike Bush do well though; he should be getting those McFadden totals if it weren't for him tearing his thumb on the last play of preseason...

And I wish I could go with Lynch but that is one lousey matchup....

Rolling with Mendenhal and Forsett. Have Charles, Barber, and Felix on bye. Next week will be Charles and Forsett/Barber. Yeesh.

 
My PPR league was looking great with SJax, Best, and Charles in charge ... looking at Lynch and either Darby, Torain, Hart, or worse although atleast I can go 3 WR's.

 
Green Ellis and possibly Maroney..only have to start 1 if need be...

I have Peterson and Charles on a bye....I'm weak at RB with Ricky, Stewart and Hightower left...

I'm cooked....

 
In my 10 team (yeah, I know) league, where we start 2RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex, I have:

RBs:

Rice (hurt)

Thomas (hurt)

Best (hurt)

Foster

WR:

Moss

Austin (bye)

S. Moss

Harvin (bye)

I think I'm going Rice/Foster, Moss/S.Moss, with Best at Flex. I've picked up Ken Darby just in case Best and Thomas are both out.

 
Start Hillis and Lawfirm.

Bye"

Peterson, Barber, TJones, Gerhardt.

Bench:

MBush,Kuhn

Lost:

Grant, RBush

Ill be selling after this week.

 
2 from the following: Ricky Williams / Chris Ivory / Isaac Redman / Danny Woodhead / Dimitri Nance / Jerome Harrison

hahahaha

 
Mendenhall

McFadden

Bradshaw

...with Ryan Grant on my bench.

12 team competitive dynasty league.

I hit the later round RB jackpot. :goodposting:

I have the same stable of RBs, except swap out Grant, for Charles. I feel very fortunate after reading some other people's predicaments. WR's are different story though.
