solorca 80 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Wow...that's just annoying. Go through the trouble of carrying a handcuff all season, and you don't even get a single start out of him (in a fantastic matchup) when Mcfadden hurts. I'm probably just going to drop Goodson and I'll probably hold Mcfadden for the playoff run (although given his history, I'm not confident he'll be back at all).

Romofan 4 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Exactly...with Goodson you expected a feature role if RunDMC ever went down. this is now a committee to completely avoid...maybe Reece in a flex if you're desperate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One 283 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 (edited) FWIW, my bud was on the sideline yesterday (Sideline photographer, so take it with a grain of salt). He said it couldn't be too bad since McFadden jogged by him to and from the tunnel and didn't seem in much pain. He also thought Goodson appeared in worse shape than McFadden after coming out of the game. Edited November 5, 2012 by One Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nash 0 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Raiders will wait 2 hear more on McFadden (MRI negative) & Goodson (MRI today) before pursuing running back ... Ryan Grant's agent on line 1 It will be interesting to see if the Raiders pick someone up. That should give a good hint as to the extent of DMC's injury. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
need2know 6,196 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I cant talk myself into spending the $ to get Jones or Reece. Jones is unproven and was questionable this past week. hes an injury waiting to happen. Reece is a FB who has no carries this year. Yeah, hes caught some passes but sorry I am looking for a little more out of my rb spot. I think this is a situation to avoid. Palmer is going to throw a ton, but hes going to throw plenty of INTs too. And this garbage posted above talking about DMAC maybe playing this week is just too funny...

SameSongNDance 7,014 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 So Oak has come out saying they dont trust Jones with ball security. Goodson is also apparently in worse shape than DMC. If im in 1ppr im grabbing Reece and hoping DMC can come back sooner like Oak is hinting at. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solorca 80 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 After looking at the available backs on my waiver wire, I guess I'll put a claim in for Reece...but I'm not exactly happy about it. I do own him in a few dynasty leagues, but he's more of an emergency play than anything else. I have Lynch as my only healthy back that I'm comfortable starting, although Pierre Thomas may be ok for as long as Sproles is out. DMC may not be "officially ruled out" for for this week, but I can't see any possible way he actually plays. Thanks a lot Mcfadden and Goodson...we now get to miss out on games against the Ravens and likely the Saints. What a terrible time for these guys to get hurt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The fact that the X-Rays and MRI are negative is a positive. I don't think that anyone really believes that he's going to play this week. But, maybe we lucked out and he suffered a low to mid-grade HAS.

Gopher State 959 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Coach Dennis Allen stated Monday that the Raiders don't trust Taiwan Jones due to ball-security issues. Jones didn't fumble on 20 preseason touches, so he must be putting the football on the ground in practices. He's also clearly not a trusted pass protector, as Marcel Reece played ahead of Jones in pass-heavy comeback mode in Week 9 against the Bucs. Jones is worth picking up in fantasy leagues, but his workload will be a huge question mark for Week 10. He'll be a dicey flex option.

The way he got hurt was ridiculous to, given he was just running in a straight line and panicked when two defeders were coming in. What makes it even MUCH more worse, is that, if you rostered both (McFadden and Goodson), how confident can you be in dropping Goodson? Imagine you drop him, even for Reece, and then Goodson comes back sooner than McFadden (after all, the former didn't need X-rays), and then Reece goes back to his FB role.

Insein 10,543 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 The more I'm reading, I think Reece is the play. Taiwan looks like he'll get the "role" but Reece gets most of the passing downs anyway. If he is now getting 5-10 carries to go with it, he would be more valuable to me. What do Raiders fans think? He seems to be like an H back where they use him as the TE out of the backfield mostly. If he gets carries, will he produce? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Kuhn 1 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 If you're in a PPR league, Reece seems the safer bet. Raiders have gone on record that they don't trust Taiwan with ball security which likely sticks a fork in any potential goal line work as well. Reece would probably also get a few catches even if McFadden makes it back in a limited fashion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jp81976 0 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 so, ok...i know we're down on McFadden but how down? I have an opportunity to get him in my Dynasty league and I can't wrap my head around what I would give. the owner claims another owner offered him a WR, a backup RB, and a 1st round rookie pick (a pretty decent one). The owner has Larry Fitzgerald, Randall Cobb, Dexter McCluster, and Nate Washington at WR. Can't imagine they would have sent Fitz or Cobb but i guess you never know. Backup running back I'm guessing is David Wilson. Where would you place DMC's value? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Silver & Black 239 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I'm out. Just traded him and Owen Daniels for Bradshaw and Leshoure. I'm 4-5 and just barely clinging to playoff contention. I have Witten and start MaGahee and Mathews. I've watched every Raiders game and have been waiting for DMC to break loose with such a soft schedule. Whether it's him or the scheme, he has not looked good and Goodson has just loked better. Can't figure it out. Now I don't have to anymore. It feels good... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
