FFB Need your sleeper opionon at RB

**hovan** · 09-03-2005, 07:26 AM

Ok boys, so I jerked with my team even though you all advised against it.. and now I am desperate to pick up RB that could save me. My recievers can probably keep me in the Playoff Race as I am in a Pass oriented FFB league.

My scary starters are

Carnell Williams and Willie Parker with D. Foster and M. Pittman on the bench.

I have Gonzo as my tight end with Ben Watson and M. Pollard on the bench. I can only start one TE and our league awards points for receptions and recieving yardage bonuses so I definately need a backup for Tony G. Obviously Pollard is the logical choice to keep, but Watson just intrigues me, any one else think he could be huge this year?

And I will probably cut Pittman. I have Troy Williamson on the bench, and would hate to drop him and have someone else stack him on the bench. If you guys think he won't play much this year, let me know, because I could drop him. But here is what is left of the RB gene pool....

The three that have a chance at contributing right away are.....

Ryan Moats - can he get enough carries, maybe some goalines? But he had bad last preseason game, maybe Philly will be up and plug this guy in to save westbrook.

Brandon Jacobs- Dude is a freak, but will he get playing time without Tiki getting injured?
Moe Williams - Good ol Moe, maybe the only Viking back who will not be injured this season, just don't know how much he will get to play

That is pretty much it as far as I can tell, there are backups like Gore,

Ron Dayne, Domanick Rhodes, Chatman or Sproles of SD, Chris Perry, V. Morency of Texas that seem like they will only play with Injury

I've gotta make a move here soon as people are dropping Kickers and adding RB's daily.

Here's a couple ideas:

Stephen Jackson
Travis Henry (is he gonna start for the Titans??)
Rueben Droughns or Lee Suggs (whoever starts)
Thomas Jones....starter so far for Bears
Mewelde Moore...
Frank Gore...maybe??

Dominick Davis says he wants to rush for 2000 this year...he may be capable of it before his career is over.

Yeah, and Bennett said he wants to rush for 1500 this year, if he can get 1500 yards in the 6 games he playes......

Why do you have Foster on ur Bench instead of Willie Parker? Are both Jerome Bettis and Duce Staley gone? Too bad Muchluv aint here he is a FF wizard

Well there are 32 teams in the league.. You should be able to find a starter..

How about Julius Jones? Lamont Jordan? JJ Arrington?

I would make a trade if I was you if you cant find a sleeper just sitting there

**i_bleed_purple** · 09-04-2005, 02:16 AM

Mewelde Moor would be a good sleeper pick. he's not well known but we all know when healthy he can put up some big numbers

Thanks for the replies but they are all gone. Even though it is a pass oriented League, everyone snagged all of those running backs. I guess I was banking onf Foster to be starting down there in Carolina, FRICKIN STEVEN DAVIS, I thought he was dead. :cry:
