Waiver Advice: Lose Hightower or Tomlinson for Mcfadden?

[swells88]

Should I drop hightower or tomlinson to pick up mcfadden? my other backs are arian foster and mendenhall.

also, should I drop Garrard to pick up vick? my other quarterbacks are brees and roethlisberger. (qb can start at flex in this league)

last but not least should I pick up austin collie (ppr league) ? i could drop steve breaston or jermichael finley?

You could drop Tomlinson for McFadden, LT has Minn in week 5 when Mendenhall is on bye, McFadden has San Diego at home. I really like the idea of flexing Vick if you can pick him up. Now will you comment on mine? http://www.thehuddle.com/x10/season/w02/jum.php

I'd hold onto LT, I really do think he will take the starting job from Greene. Hightower may be worth dropping, IDK if he is going to do a whole lot more with bennie back... personally I'd hold onto LT and Hightower. Just my opinion, tough call.

All are splits - the question you should ask is who has the best possibility of becoming (or remaining) the full time starter and how many carries & scores are they likely to get for the team. In this regard LT has a huge potential upside and I would not drop him - at least not yet - if ever. Hightower will likely be somewhat productive all year - but will certainly split with Wells (if/once healthy) - and Arizona - who knows....McFadden could reamin the #1 starter (though I doubt it) - and I could think of a whole variety of options where he might just completely fade away....so I'd stick with LT fer sure and the choice between Hightower and Mcfadden is perhaps a wash - depending on byes and matchups through the year vs other RBs you might start.
