HowboutthemCowboys Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I currently have Edge,G Jones,F.Taylor and R.Brown.All transactions are done after this week.Would it be wise to drop R. Brown and grab Rhodes?Everyone assumes Rhodes will get some time down the stretch and DMD is saying that he should see some time starting this week.We can only carry 4 rb's and I would have the rb's from only 2 teams.Jax schedule is pretty good down the stretch if they would only get this Taylor sitting/playing thing figured out.What do you think guys?(trades are over for us by the way)Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better safe than sorry. Also isn't Brown splitting touches with Smokey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baddfish2 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) I would do it too. Brown appears like he's hit the wall, and Ricky has to be back in shape and looks like he's running well now. Rhodes to back up Edge is wise. In a related situation I actually have LT2, T Jones, G Jones and Rhodes on my roster (4 RB Max As Well). The Edge owner has Adrian Peterson and has offered him to me straight up for Rhodes suggesting that we both have our backups that way. I'm inclined to risk not having Jones backed up but also perhaps have Rhodes services if needed in a few weeks.

giantsfan Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 I would do it also because Brown isn't that great anyway, but just keep in mind other than week 17 I bet Edge gets at least some carries every game, so how would you know when to start Edge and when to start Dom. Point is unless you know Edge isn't going to play or Dungy says Edge will only play a series or 2 I don't know how you could start Dom with confidence. Now you clearly see why I dealt Edge for a package including LJ. I assume you aren't in a keeper league. If you are I may hold Brown.

Gdawg Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Yeah, youve gotta pick up Rhodes. If you have to do it, drop Brown...as you said Jones/Taylor have some very good matchups down the stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiginthecapital Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Not only would I do it, I am going to do it. I also have Edge and a trade deadline that's passed, but I'm lining up to get Rhodes in this weeks WW. By the way, I'm sorry, but given your screenname I just can't resist: HOWBOUTHEMBRONCOS!?!?
