LbNiners Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 anyone starting this guy tonight? If he can't out produce MJD against this Tenn team tonight then its truly hopeless for this guy that or that OC Hamilton guy is just full of crap and talking out of his butt every week about running it more.

darin3 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I don't own him, but did had high hopes for him last week. That game went upside-down in a hurry and it wouldn't matter how disappointing he's been this season.... more than likely he would have been sparingly used anyways in such a contest. Â Tennessee's run D is [Chuck Barkley voice] turrrr-ible, so you'd think Richardson would have at least a puncher's chance in putting together 50-80 yards and a score tonight. Â I tell ya, if he's under 50 rushing yards tonight... he's garbage. Â And to think, I was after him in a dynasty league and was about to hand over a butt-load of high picks to get him. Dude never responded to my email even though he put him on the block... so guess I lucked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 He has to get the opportunities to produce, if he only gets 5-10 carries he's going to suck again, even against a horrible rush D. Â I can tell you this, he is (and has) been on the bench in my league behind Woodhead and Lamar Miller (teams only other RB is BGE). BGE may be swapped for Miller, he has started a few games for the owner after TRich got benched (wk8). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) like last week, tonight is another big time for him to produce and shine. however, at this point, brown has taken almost all the looks in the passing game and is looking to take on the full-time gig. if t-rich can't produce tonight, it's basically the final straw, especially with playoff time around the corner. brown has been and seems to be the guy to own as crazy as that sounds, as a year ago i was pretty sold on ballard taking brown's job and being the lead back in indy.

loaf Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I have Ogbonnaya in ahead of Richardson in 32 Homers. Just looked and Obi-wan is projected at 7 while they're giving Trent 5.5. Non ppr. I still may switch them out before kickoff though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heehawks Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Finally bit the bullet today in my long time 8-man local and dropped him for Vereen. Pretty easy decision at this point as he's been dead weight for most of the season, plus I'm covered at RB with Charles, Stacy, Gio, Woodhead, and now Vereen. I honestly don't think he's gonna "break-out" anytime this season as his track record just isn't that good. The only thing is that I'm really disappointed that my second round pick (11th overall) hasn't lived up to expectations. All that being said, he'll probably run for 75 and score three times tonight... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripleshot Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I don't think he's startable until he gets 50 yards, a td, or both, unless you're really that desperate. He's totally ignored as a passing target, despite catching 55+ passes last year. He's not getting enough carries to get into any kind of groove, and looks like a plodder with no burst whatsoever when he does get a carry. If it weren't for his name, he'd be waiver wire fodder in most leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â You've already proclaimed your love for this back countless times. Just cause his home movie wasn't high quality, you got a remember, he's an amateur, not a pro.

electricrelish Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) I hear the only way TRich can score is we're talking a pro here. he might not be special as a rb but when ur banging multiple options during an orgy, ur something special. Â Yeah, well, it may be the only other time you ever see him score this year. Edited November 15, 2013 by electricrelish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heehawks Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 It's pretty amazing how far this guy has fallen in a relatively short period of time. I was so stoked when he came in the first game and scored on his first carry against the niners. I honestly thought I had a top 3 or 4 back for the rest of the year, racking up TDs left and right. Nope. Crap. Slow. Plodding. Yuck. He does look ok tonight, but not really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â thankfully, he does have 5 receptions for 31 yards which really helped him not be a totally bust tonight. just think if he scores a Td, he'll have been a pretty good play tonight with close to 20 pts.

irish Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Well, and there's your answer. Donald Brown is the man, while Richardson is a mere afterthought. I do believe that T-Rich could have been something great in this offense but they just kept with Brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could've gained yardage in chunks against the Titans, just as TRich could. So, they just want to waste picks. Clever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffraff Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Both Brown and Trent cost them a first round pick each. They just played the one that has been producing. Kinda interesting that if Ballard hadn't gotten injured, they would have saved themselves the first they spent on Trent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LbNiners Posted November 15, 2013 Author Share Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) guess dude's only good for scoring in movies and yea this is pretty much the very last week I play him ever again, luckily im in a ppr league so he at least had a few more pts thanks to those crappy receptions.
