To small to be a starting RB in the NFL, huge injury concern

Never been a starter, injury concern

Has never produced/been productive in several NFL seasons. Also possible loss of job to a rookie.

Back-up, has a history of injuries, has the potential to be a Fred Taylor-type back. Huge points one week, injured the next 4 weeks.

Not full time start, splits carries with another.

I'm not going to say who each player is, but I agree with you Sarge. Alot of money has been spent early on some players, I am guilty, but I'm not going to let a player that I want go if I feel I can get value for my bid.

wasnt implying that you should "let a player" go. Was simply wanting to point out, there is still a LOT of talent out there. Just 'cause that stud RB or QB or WR you were hoping for went by, doesnt mean a damn thing yet. Its a 9 man starting roster. 1 name, isnt going to make-break the season. (unless you spent HUGE on that name and then they dont pan out. One name can ruin your year, but damned sure cant make the year.))

I agree Sarge. I'm pretty sure an injury to Alexander would sink my team quicker than the Titanic.

Sarge-
A lot of those WRs are going to go for much cheaper than they should...

agreed THK. The first few rounds, players were WAY over-valued and over-bid.

I KNEW better, and should have sat tight until 1/2 dz managers bid themselves under $100. Bargains galore, exist to be had, and we have 2 managers...4...who IMHO..."did it right". (unfortunately, experienced at this as I am/was...I am not one of the four.)

Disagree with the way overbid.
Do agree with the way underbid.
The couple that should have kept it honest are going to hate each other when the number 7 RB for a team goes for $35.

It was funny what we saw at the end of the BB auction.

Also, steals on the weekend were typical with BB also.

Being away for the whole weekend changed my plans. I wanted to wait and see who I would be able to get at a "bargain" price, but also did not want to see a lot of talent off the charts before I got around today.

I figure if you find the right bargain, you can still make up a nice team with less than 100 bucks right now. All you have to do is gamble with upping prices on guys you dont want, and hope someone with more money goes after him...
