Do I Drop any for what's available or just keep what I have?

I'd drop one of the Detroit backs for Doug Martin. Which one is a tossup.

 

[m0ng0]

I would drop Foster honestly, pick up Martin. Leave the Detroit situation alone and see how it shakes out.

 

[Ozzy]

Reports have Foster coming back week 4 possible and he's a top 5 rb when he comes back. I probably would stay put at least until we get a little closer to week 1 but I wouldn't drop Abdullah if you do decide to drop someone. Too much upside.

 

[Bobblehead]

I have Foster on the IR spot which doesn't count to your bench depth.

we have 2 rb on the line up
and 2 RB on the bench, which you can use one for the flex position.

So my problem is the two Detroit runners.

Martin's available and he was huge a couple of years ago not so much recently

Best bet for me I guess is to drop Detroit Bell, PU Dough Martin and if Martin fails, I can drop him and pick up bell again,(maybe).

Well thanks all, at least I have more ideas I can ponder on what to do.

I honestly think you're fine. Just play Joique and Forsett and in a couple of weeks you have Le'veon

Sounds. good, I'll do that. thank you.

 

[Ozzy]

And foster at some point. I agree. Hold tight.

You guys are crazy to drop foster. Looks like a week 4 is possible. Altho this guy held on to Josh Gordon all year last year so I could be completely wrong. I am smarter than Sac tho if you need a tie breaker.

It's possible Foster comes back in four weeks. It's also possible that it's nine weeks. It's also possible that it's 4 weeks and then he suffers a season ending torn labia two weeks later. It's risky to waste a roster spot on such an unknown.

You could be right, but I don't like the odds of him coming back early AND staying healthy.

 

[Ozzy]

I get both sides of it. Depends on your roster is constructed is too. Some teams are set up better to do it better than others.

 

[Bobblehead]

I have a IR slot so I stashed him in their just in case. we'll see.

That's my opinion also. Detroit isn't going to run and you know it.

8 Team league?

I still have hopes that a competent threat at QB will help open things up for Sankey in Tennessee.

 

[Ozzy]

Sankey has looked this preseason.

 

[Sac]

In other news, with both Yeldon and Ameer on my team I'm actually super excited to watch the Lions/Jags game.

Never thought I'd say that.

 

[Ozzy]

I've got a couple Ameer shares and I have Robinson from the Jags who I like this year. Yay Jags/Lions!

A big reason they didn't run it last year was injuries. They are going to be better at doing that this season.. and even if they throw a majority of the time, Bell is still a nice option to score inside the 5.
