kpholmes Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I've always felt like BB just flat out didn't like Maroney. I've been scratching my head ever since that pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hat Trick Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 This is a blessing in diguise for me, having him on a couple teams I can now drop his sorry butt which I was hesitant to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratesownninjas Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I've always felt like BB just flat out didn't like Maroney. I've been scratching my head ever since that pick. Not the case. Maroney has been running scared for a while now. Won't hit holes, and will run out of bounds a yard short of the marker instead of take on a tackler are get the first. That and he gets hurt every week, he just doesn't have it. BB will play those who give him the best chance to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinatown dragons Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 i drafted him 2 years ago, and vowed never to draft him again... to think Pats could have had Joseph Addai instead....Granted, addai is now hurt, but at least he puts up numbers when he plays....I'd take his 15 tds from last year.... Run Sammy run.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronco Billy Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I've always felt like BB just flat out didn't like Maroney. I've been scratching my head ever since that pick. You're right, I don't like him. He's a turd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budlitebrad Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 So where does that put Morris' value? Could he put up RB2 numbers? I haven't watched many Pats games and I could pick him up right now, but I'd have to drop Kevin Curtis. Worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westvirginia Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 There is still Faulk and Lamont...so probably low RB2 or Flex for now. I'd say Faulk is probably a worthy RB2 in PPR leagues now. Lamont probably the GL back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth it? tough call....right now, Jordan is banged up, leaving Morris, Faulk and Evans (fullback) as the healthy backfield.....Morris will get most of the carries; Faulk will come in on 3rd down...Evans may be used at goal line until Jordan comes back. maybe they should have signed Benson or Alexander!!! Corey Dillon, you out there still?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke davenport Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I picked up Morris in a trade for Matt Jones. Double good given that I win this week thanks to Sammy's effort on MNF, and Jones' pending suspension. So of course now karma seems to have already kicked in as Sammy goes out w/ a bum knee. I don't mind the ups and downs of FF, but do they have to progress at lightening speed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes you feel any better, Jones' pending suspension is now a three game suspension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LayLow Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 how bad did the knee injury look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROYALWITCHEESE Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 how bad did the knee injury look? Didn't see one. He just left the game. My guess? He bruised it and NE will use it in the injury report this week. He'll play... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guggs Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Thank goodness I did not keep him over Calvin Johnson in my keeper league before the season began. Thanks to the huddlers who helped in that decision! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czarina Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Maroney apparently has a torn right talent, a season ending and possibly career threatening injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunning Runt Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 BenJarvus Green-Ellis? I hope so. That'd be a nice little mid-season pickup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
