0 Subject: RB help this week

I need to play 2 and with ML still out and Peterson most likely out as well I am having a hard time figuring out the right starts.

Droughns vs. Min...1 PM
Hall @Chi...4PM
Ede vs. SF....late game

-Jacobs is out, and Ward probably isn't going to play either so Droughns is the number 1 guy there today.
-Den will work out Selvin before the late game, and Henry is out. Should be Hall if Selvin is a no go.
-Edge is the number 1 guy by default, and he has been consistent most of this year, but not necessarily ever that huge.

I'm tempted to put Droughns in there at 1 and wait on the situation in Denver...and if Selvin's out, going with Hall and leaving more of a "sure" bet on the bench.

Crazy talk?

Typo above, it should be "Edge"...and both of those late games are the 4 PM time slots.

Andre Hall definitely deserves a start. I agree with that.

I haven't read up on the Giants RB situation, but if you're sure Droughns will get the start, I suppose he's a decent option.

Arizona seems unable to run the ball consistently. Edge is no sure thing. I agree with your logic there.

Is Ricky Williams not available? Or Kolby Smith (whom I don't love this week either, to be honest).

I guess unless word comes out that Hall is starting for sure, go with Droughns and Edge. Minny has a tough run D, but if there are rushing TD's to be had, its gonna be Droughns and not Ward.

Just saw Derick Ward is inactive...so its all Droughns today

Thanks a ton guys. Droughns is my first start at 1 with the RB injuries for the Giants, and I will just take another look at it before the 4 PM games, to decide on Hall vs. Edge.

Semi-serious league with a decent amount of money into it (paying for all transactions as well), but since it's serious, all backs get immediately picked up and both Kolby and Williams are long gone.

I really just needed some reassurance and this helped a ton.

Yeah, thanks again guys. Went with Droughns early, and chose Hall over Edge in the late game....so far, so good.

I can't believe that huge reception that Hall just had. It seemed like Denver was kinda running out the clock with a check-off to him and he runs wild and the Broncos get a cheap FG out of it.
