Per Rotoworld: Cowboys have declared RB Marion Barber III, WR Roy Williams, DL Clifton Geathers, OT Jermey Parnell, LB Leon Williams, OL Phil Costa, OL Sam Young, QB Tony Romo inactive for Week 16.

 

There had been some debate as to whether Barber (calf) and Williams (groin) would be active, but they will sit out Week 16. Upgrade Felix Jones' matchup as a RB3/flex with Cardinals LB Joey Porter listed as inactive. Tashard Choice could net double-digit carries spelling Jones on occasional series, making him a serviceable flex option.

 

I really need to know, being I have three questionnable tags for this weekend. Would really like to use Choice for my flex.

NFL PLAYER NOTES Marion Barber - RB - Cowboys

Cowboys RB Marion Barber (calf) is active Week 16 against the Cardinals.

Cowboys Coach Jason Garrett has indicated that he will use a three-man committee once Barber returns, so Marion's presence hinders the upside of Felix Jones and Tashard Choice. Only Jones carries flex value while Barber should remain on fantasy benches and waiver wires despite an inactive Joey Porter. Choice will struggle to get double-digit touches in Dallas' crowded RBBC. December 25 - 7:00 p.m. ET

Roy Williams - WR - Cowboys

Cowboys WR Roy Williams (groin) is active Week 16 against the Cardinals.

Despite his active status, Williams should not be near fantasy lineups, especially in leagues that play their Super Bowl Week 16. December 25 - 6:50 p.m. ET

rotoworld update

 

Marion Barber (calf) and Roy Williams (groin) are both active for the Cowboys against the Cardinals on Christmas night.

 

Even with Barber active, we still like Felix Jones and Tashard Choice as low-end RB2 options against one of the league's worst run defenses. Barber should receive the fewest carries of the three backs. Williams isn't trustworthy as a WR3 option in Week 16. Cowboys inactives: WR Teddy Williams, WR Manny Johnson, RB Lonyae Miller, OT Alex Barron, OT Jermey Parnell, S Andrew Sedejo, LB Kenwin Cummings, and OG Phil Costa.
