Irish27 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) I was wondering who is everyone's sleeper running back. I have Deuce McAllister as my 4th running back but I am looking to replace him. Any suggestions? Edited August 25, 2008 by Irish27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonedaddies Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Pierre Thomas of the Saints......behind a few cats, but a nice one to let linger...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaffKiwi Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Chris Johnson, Chris Perry, Ray Rice, Mendenhall, Ricky Williams, Steve Slanton... Â ha I have 4 of those guys on my roster! Johnson, Perry, Ricky W and Steve Slaton. We have a lot of bench space though. I'd say right now all of those guys would get drafted in my league. In fact all of them did bar Chris Perry who I picked up off waivers after I saw his first pre season game for the Bengals. He looked fired up as hell so I added him a couple of days later. We're PPR and count return yards/TDs though which is probably why I drafted Slaton and Johnson. Â I think in most deeper leagues Slaton may be the only one there who actually goes undrafted and who could win a starting gig at some point in the season. He's been my tip to be this years Ryan Grant for some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asskickas Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Chris Perry and Pierre Thomas and Hightower. All the others get drafted in 15 round drafts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorttynaz Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) No one is drafting Lamont Jordan. I took him with my last pick. And my reasoning for taking him is this: Not only is Maroney overrated, but look at what Bellicheat did with Sammy Morris, Kevin Faulk, Wes Welker, and well kind of an exception cause the guy already had the tools but - Moss. Â Jordan should get a majority of the goal line carries. Bellicheat has already said that he is very pleased with what he has seen this preseason with Jordan. And if Jordan doesn't pan out, he was my last pick anyway. I'll drop him for some bye week filler. But for now, I'm gonna see what happens.

Â Â I agree with this....I grabbed Lamont Jordan in the 15th round......we can start a 'flex player', and won't mind sliding him in to grab some goal line td's...

I have him too. I also have maroney (end of 4th round) but wondering what to do with sammy morris who lingers on our waiver wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Hightower went undrafted in my local, and I just went back and picked him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
