MistaWrite Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 With all these RBBC situations in the league, and overly capable #2 RBs out here right now, who do you think is the best? I'm especially interested in your responses because I have several of these #2 RBs on my roster (and , thankfully, Cadillac is on a bye, so he doesn't even muddy the possibilities this week). So 2 questions: 1) Which of the following RBs do you think will post the biggest stats this season; and 2) which of those on my roster (in bold), would you play THIS Sunday? - Laurence Maroney NE - DeAngelo Williams CAR - Michael Turner SD - Maurice Jones-Drew Jax - Ladell Betts Was - Marion Barber Dal - Joseph Addai Ind - Michael Robinson SF - Brandon Jacobs NYG - Jerious Norwood Atl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUBJPO01 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 My guess would be Maroney... if not, then probably Addai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 in my league, the #2 is Frank Gore, behind Westbrook... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Holy Roller Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 in my league, the #2 is Frank Gore, behind Westbrook... Same in my big money local. From your choice of three, I'd have to go with Williams. He's every other week material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacobs over Maroney, huh? Interseting (I though everyone would be feeling Maroney). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider.Nation Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Turner only has value when SD is going to play an opponent they can blow out like the Raiders and Titans were. The Ravens won't allow Turner a chance to get into the game. Maroney (not looking forward to playing against him this week). He gets a lot of looks from Brady, and let's face it. NE should be playing catch up from the get-go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeohiostate Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 If LT were to go down, Turner would be the in the best situation of any of them to put up the best FF #'s this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Holliday Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 - Laurence Maroney - Joseph Addai Ind - Ladell Betts Was - Brandon Jacobs NYG - DeAngelo Williams CAR - Michael Turner SD - Maurice Jones-Drew Jax - Marion Barber Dal - Michael Robinson SF - Jerious Norwood Atl This is how I would rank them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ravens won't allow Turner a chance to get into the game. I disagree. I think Schottenheimer knows that he can't give LT the ball 30 times a game if he wants him at the top of his game come playoff time. Michael Turner will get into every game this year. I expect somewhere around 8-10 carries a week from him. Not huge for fantasy numbers, but it will keep LT fresh and strong during the stretch run and into the playoffs.

godtomsatan Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Maroney without hesitation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitbull739 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Maroney overall and Drew this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should rephrase that. Turner will not pickup garbage points like he has against TEN or OAK when he plays BAL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 (edited) no.....I thought it was a WDIS post.. s'OK nobody's perfect. Actually it could be interpreted as who's the best NFL-wise or FF-wise. 2 diff. things. NFL-wise, ie who's looking the best and projects the best guy to have playing part-time, I think it's a tough call between Maroney and McAllister. I think Maroney is this close to breaking out big-time if Dillon continues with nicks and dings.....but McAllister is showing that N.O. isn't just the Reggie Bush show. Turner also deserves consideration because he is doing so well in spot duty for LT, but I agree that while he'll continue to get more than a token carry or 2, in close games his time will be cut. Finally Barber and Jacobs bring up the rear" as the best of the rest. Although PS Betts deserves at least a token mention IMO as the Skins will give him more carries than many seem to expect. Not that he'll shine as much as those above, but he is capable of production here and there. FF-wise......... Actually I'd rank them about the same, now that I think of it.
