Nabb Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Is this a situation where A. Green get the first series and is deemed the starter, but Slaton actually gets 85% of the carries. Should we really consider Slaton to be a valid starter today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 To be honest, playing in PIT is as bad a matchup for a RB as there is anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Lewis in the late game. everyone else in the early games. I'm rollin' with Slaton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayton imo has the most value going forward but its the first week so A Green should start and give up carries to Slayton.... It a gamble playing any of their RB right now. And I wouldnt bench Jamal, indications are he will play. Edited September 7, 2008 by RussMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not start any of the Houston RB's for the next 16 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Majoris Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Owen Daniels should too. Good call - forgot about him. Starting him in two leagues too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 you didn't draft slayton in the 10th just to sit him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziachild007 Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Per Kubiak, Green will see 12-15 carries, Slaton 6-10, and Taylor 4-8. "We're going to rotate them," Kubiak said. "Basically, Ahman, [steve] Slaton and Chris [Taylor] are all going to play. We're going to keep them fresh on the field. I have confidence in all three of them. I think the two young kids have looked as good as they've looked all camp this week." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 you didn't draft slayton in the 10th just to sit him... Well, yes, I did exactly that. McGahee being a risky proposition may change that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm rollin' with Slaton. changed it back to Lewis at the last minute. Too early in the year for this crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
