SpinalTapp Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Perry is injury prone, but has the size to be a feature back. I always thought he was the heir apparent to Rudi once Rudi faded. What do you think? Should we be grabbing Chris now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Yes, he's worth a spot if you can find one to wait and see what happens over the next two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfin2000 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I think there's a good chance that Perry could see significant playing time IF he's able to return, but I still think a healthy Rudi is the man, and there's nothing wrong with the way Kenny Watson has played the past couple of weeks. Watson could have easily gone for over 100 yards in each of the last 3 games if the Bengals weren't so far behind and he had gotten the carries.

peepinmofo Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I have Perry in a dynasty, and a rule says if he is on the PUP you can place him on IR, which I did. So that said, when he comes back, expect him to be studly the rest of the season, finally breaking free from the injury plague. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I honestly think Watson has earned a shot here. I believe it is very possible that he is more talented than Rudi at this point. I have given up on Perry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Misfit Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 FWSMIW, Perry said today he has not been told by coaches that he will be activated this week. In today's press conference, Lewis refused to comment on whether Perry will be back this week, what the team will do for RB this week (Lewis said Rudi aggravated his hamstring yesterday, but yesterday Rudi said he was fine after the game), or what kind of timetable Perry may be on for his return. All of which means it could be pretty rough predicting Bengals RB play for the rest of the fantasy season. Watson is clearly outperforming Rudi at this point, hamstring or no, and Perry would likely outplay both of them, but there is no word out there about extent of his injury. Lewis suggested before the final cut this season that Perry may not even go on the PUP; then they put him on the PUP, and now won't say if or when he may be activated.

Czarina Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Talk of how good Chris Perry would be if he came off the PUP list is like speculating on the Great Pumpkin making an appearance on Halloween. Neither is likely to happen. I drafted Perry as a rookie since I also have Rudi. I don't think I've ever used him, ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffraff Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Maybe he should be a starter on special teams. That's as much of a starter as I ever seeing him being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irish Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 What about Dorsey? Didn't the Bengals sign Dorsey who used to play for the Colts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 What about Dorsey? Didn't the Bengals sign Dorsey who used to play for the Colts? Yes, but he is a back up at best. The Bengals had him on the practice squad before he went to the Colts and then came back to the Bengals. Watson is the man for now. But wait and see how Rudi progresses and oh wait, maybe Perry too.

doors27 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 is Rudi officially out this weekend? Watson safe to start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 is Rudi officially out this weekend? Watson safe to start? A late game today, so nothing official. I would still say Watson is safe to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I'd say it's a good thing for Watson to be Watson. Which is, of course, why I decided to not play him in the MVP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
