Hey guys, Just trying to settle up my roster for the playoffs. Are any of this week's waiver wire pickups worth picking up if I have to drop a current RB on my roster? Thanks Brian
Personally, I think Herron has the easier schedule. Plus I would rather trust and Indy RB than an OAK RB. But that's just my opinion. :)
You make an excellent point. Herron's fumbling issue must stop or else he'll find the bench regardless of production.
Well it sounds like the consensus, regardless of the pickup, is that Vereen is droppable for either one of those guys. I guess I just have to decide if Herron, Murray, or Mason is going to be my pickup. Do you guys feel the same way about Fred Jackson?
Mason? You never mentioned Mason. I like Mason more than Murry based on schedule.. IN THIS ORDER Mason Murray Herron Jackson Vereen I rank your current backs as follows Eddie Lacy, CJ Anderson Rashad Jennings, Fred Jackson Shane Vereen, , If you got any of those waiver options Eddie Lacy, CJ Anderson Rashad Jennings, Mason Murray Fred Jackson Shane Vereen, ,
Sorry about that. I didn't really see Mason as an option. I had him on my team a few weeks ago and he did not perform with much consistency so I dropped him. I just assumed this past weekend was a fluke. Murray has me a little hesitant as well after only touching the ball 4 times. I realize what he did was amazing, but it just seems like another performance that will not be matched again similar to Mason's. I guess Ill roll the dice with all 3 of them and see who I end up with in the morning since Jackson or Vereen will only be used in an emergency! Thanks for the advice!
A lot of people thought CJ Anderson was a "fluke" too a few weeks back and look at what they missed out on. I think Fischer is like any other coach and will ride the hot hand. I like Mason too. Even though he's the cause I lost this past weekend :( Mason has the nicest schedule of all too if you like to play the numbers.
You're preaching to the choir there bud....I picked up Anderson and have been riding high on him. Well I dropped Vereen for Murray on waivers. Nobody picked up Herron. I am thinking of dropping Jackson for him but I am hesitant. I don't expect either of them to start for me for at least the next 2 weeks, but Herron might be my go to in the last 2 weeks of playoffs if there happens to be a mixup in Denver on running backs. Isnt Ball expected back in the next couple weeks?
