sampsonite Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I've got depth at the RB position, but I'm having bye week trouble. All of the following are on bye weeks: Ahmad Bradshaw Arian Foster McKinnon Asiata I know it's impossible to know who are free agents in my league, but is there any low ranked RB's out there who have a a good matchup for just this weekend?

MikeFL25 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Play the matchups. If Hill is available (unlikely) I would grab him instantly. He is probably going to be the workhorse back tomorrow night (then droppable again when Gio is back). Antone Smith is playing the Bucs, he can always break loose for those long 45 yard runs the Bucs love to give the Falcons. If you can, try grabbing Bryce Brown, although he is a gamble and could just as easily score you only 1-2 points. I'm in a similar situation. I have Luck, Foster, Gostkowski, Gates and Allen all out on bye this week. The week before I had Julio, Alshon and others out. Decades from now we will be telling our grandchildren of how we survived (or didn't?) Weeks 9 and 10 of the 2014 Fantasy season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson vs Pitt Boobie Dixon vs KC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFL25 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 How about: Gore vs NO Blount vs NYJ C. Johnson vs Pitt Boobie Dixon vs KC Hmmm, out of those choices I would lean towards Gore. Not the best matchup, but Gore is imo a better RB than the others listed, and he always has the potential for a big game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydropossum Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Terrance West may be an option against the Bengals this week. Lorenzo Taliaferro might get some points against the Titans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blasto95 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Take gore in a heartbeat. He'll get at least 15 touches a game. More than any other waiver wire guy so it's up to him what he does with those touches. Drop Asiata as we'll. when would you start him over McKinnon? And there's the small chance ap is back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Football Follies Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Terrance West may be an option against the Bengals this week. Lorenzo Taliaferro might get some points against the Titans. Also in bye week trouble and hoping for T West off waivers, otherwise im stuck with a choice of Montee Ball, Knile Davis, Cadet, Dunbar, Riddick or Gerhart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blasto95 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 If it's Ppr I'd take a shot with cadet again and feel pretty safe. NO backfield is still banged up and I just saw an article that the saints want to watch Ingrams heavy use the past few weeks. Could easily mean more than 1 or 2 carries from cadet( don't expect 10) but can very easily see 5+ receptions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blasto95 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Still if you have to. Out of those choices I would go with cadet or ball if there's indication he will see more than 10+ touches in his first game back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
