canman1104 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 NFL network says Addai will play but is not starting. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insideout33 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 roto: Joseph Addai is active Thursday night at Jacksonville, but Dominic Rhodes is starting at tailback for the Colts. This makes using Addai a risky proposition, although it's quite conceivable that the Colts want to get him warmed up in time for the postseason and will rotate him in evenly with Rhodes. Consider Addai more of a flex play following this news. The same goes for Rhodes, although both are quality fantasy options because the Jaguars' defense hasn't been stout all season and figures to be playing on its heels to guard against Peyton Manning.

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I wonder if I should start them both? Any chance they both put up solid numbers? Ack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insideout33 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 if you have a solid #2/3 i'd say sit addai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canman1104 Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 I got Rhodes but, I'm rolling with Lynch and P. Thomas this week. I'm in the Super Bowl and can't take a chance on Rhodes. I played Rhodes last week and he got me 23 points not sure if he will do that this week (I hope not) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Pimp Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Rhodes, MJD or Forte (missing practice today and nothing nto play for if Vikes win on Sunday)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redzone Rowdie Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I wonder if I should start them both? Any chance they both put up solid numbers? Ack. I'm considering starting them both! My only other choice is to bench one of them and start either Faulk or Choice. I've never done that before, starting both backs in a 2 back set, but with Indy, and this matchup, it just might be a decent option this week!

Sorry bro.. I live in Indy and I'm a Colts homer but, tonight I have to hope they keep Rhodes in check, of course I say that now and I am not starting him so, he will go off what do ya do?

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) This is all i've got to work with in a non-PPR league (yes, i'm not sure how I made the championship game either): (pick 1-3) Addai, Joseph IND RB at Jaguars Thu 6:15 p.m. MT (Mostly Sunny) R: 16, P:14 Questionable 105.10 9.555 New as of 7 hours ago Grant, Ryan GBP RB at Bears Mon 6:30 p.m. MT (Cloudy) R: 7, P:28 135.30 9.664 New as of 4 days ago Rhodes, Dominic IND RB at Jaguars Thu 6:15 p.m. MT (Mostly Sunny) R: 16, P:14 125.50 8.964 New as of 3 days ago (pick 2-4) Bess, Davone MIA WR at Chiefs Sun 11:00 a.m. MT (Icy) R: 29, P:30 53.10 3.793 New as of 4 days ago Boldin, Anquan ARI WR at Patriots Sun 11:00 a.m. MT (Mostly Sunny) R: 14, P:15 Questionable 176.60 14.717 New as of 2 hours ago Bryant, Antonio TBB WR vs Chargers Sun 11:00 a.m. MT (Mostly Sunny) R: 11, P:31 142.60 10.186 New as of 3 days ago Edwards, Braylon CLE WR vs Bengals Sun 11:00 a.m. MT (Partly Sunny) R: 22, P:19 105.70 7.550 New as of 2 days ago Harrison, Marvin IND WR at Jaguars Thu 6:15 p.m. MT (Mostly Sunny) R: 16, P:14 Out 90.50 6.464 New as of 3 hours ago Moss, Santana WAS WR vs Eagles Sun 2:15 p.m. MT (Partly Sunny) R: 5, P:4 Probable 133.50 9.536 New as of 5 hours ago It probably doesn't matter who I start as I'll probably get crushed. Thinking of going with the bolded above. Marvin is out. Waiver wire is closed. Once again, ack. To make matters worse, Boldin might not play. So maybe I should start 3 RBs.

Easy n Dirty Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I gotta' choose between JStew and Addai for my RB2 - going with Addai, although I'm disappointed with this news, I thought he'd be playing and starting. Still, I don't like Stewart's prospects on the road against the Giants, gotta' hope Addai can break one or two big plays as I do not expect to see him in any goalline packages.

malta69 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Rhodes over Addai is an absolute no brainer, especially in PPR leagues. Addai will get his token 3 or 4 carries then limp gingerly to the sideline and take himself out of the game. I really dont see what people are all worked up about. Rhodes is still a strong RB #2 play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazinib1 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I got Rhodes in over S.Morris. I don't see Addai getting more than 10 touches...why risk it. I'm sure they're just gonna keep him in game shape heading into next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino88 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) Need 1 between Rhodes, Grant (@Chi) and Foster (@Stl - Gore is 50/50). What do you guys think? Edited December 19, 2008 by dino88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brentastic Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 This is horrible. I have to choose between Rhodes, McFadden or Faulk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino88 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 This is horrible. I have to choose between Rhodes, McFadden or Faulk I'd go with Rhodes between those 3. N.E. has too many weapons to count on Faulk and L.Jordan is back as well. McFadden looks to be a decent play, but Houston's defense looked tough last week and the Raiders are too much of a mess to count on one of them in the playoffs.

Sunday Couch Potatoe Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 How about having Gore and Foster to choose from on sunday or just start rhodes today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dino88 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 How about having Gore and Foster to choose from on sunday or just start rhodes today that's the same dilemma i'm having with grant thrown into that mix i just plugged rhodes in. the last time i made a last minute change was plugging l.white in on thanksgiving. i hope it works out the same.

Easy n Dirty Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I don't care who Stewart is going against. IMO, he'll put up more than Addai this week. LOL - I made the switch just before seeing your post here. I got cold feet and switched over to Stewart, we'll see how it plays out. I always hate making last minute switches, but I was leery about this one to begin with, hearing that Addai was not getting the start pushed me over the edge.
