Duro posted:How much time is he going to miss? Should I dump him or stash him? The injury has been clarified as a rib injury. Early indications are this is a short term, pain management issue. I wouldn't drop him until there's an indication he'll miss serious time.

It looks like Joique Bell is out for Monday's game. It might be worth it to speculatively add Zenner in case the coaching staff still doesn't like Abdullah. Maybe only if you have someone on your bench that you feel comfortable dropping (like Taliaferro perhaps since the Ravens already played).

What site do you play on where you can drop someone who already played that week before the week is over

It makes rotating handcuffs a sort-of-viable strategy, dropping them if the main back doesn't get hurt.

Is Terrence Williams worth anything at this point? I don't trust him after the goose egg last week. I'm thinking about swapping him out for a Brian Quick prospect. I could also drop Davante Adams, but I'm still hoping for a late season breakout. My WRs are not good.

365 Nog Hogger posted:Zach Zenner worth a pickup with Joique out? Absolutely. Detroit has a history under Caldwell of preferring two heavily involved RBs, not unlike New England or Cincinnati. Abdullah has been performing as the Reggie Bush replacement, so it's not entirely unreasonable to think Zenner, if effective, could supplant Bell for the "Joique Bell job".

Metapod posted:Theo Riddick will be the beneficiary of bell not playing At first, maybe (even probably). Caldwell is really conservative after all. That said: a) Zenner might get a few snaps, and if he runs like he did in the pre-season, that could parlay into more work going forward. b) Now that Joique is drifting down the depth chart, all it would take at this point to make Zenner fantasydefinitely relevant is one more injury, to either Riddick or Abdullah. The thing about RBs is, you need to be ahead of the curve. Go to where the puck is going to be, etc. etc. If you had waited for Arians to come out and explicitly say "Chris Johnson is my guy", or waited for Christine Michael to start his run up the depth chart, you'd be too late now.

To be fair, and it remains to be seen after one game....Chris Johnson sucked last year as a Jet. So I was prepared to not touch him. Then you had the David Johnson hype train.

There was a lot of preseason buzz about the Cowboys signing him as an UDFA, but is his skill set a direct replacement for Bell's? Also, what confidence do people have in the o-line to play better with Zenner than Bell? I'll confirm the Joe Lombardi school of running backs is to have a heavy rotation. Whoever replaces Bell could see an Ingram-like workload and TD upside (if the lions can get out of their poo poo-filled bed).

I think it's prudent to pump the brakes a bit on CJ?k. He had one good game after years of mediocrity. He's in a good spot but that's still a RBBC right now. And CMike hasn't done crap either. I get the "be ahead of the curve thing" and agree with it. We were talking about L. Murray about 6 weeks ahead of time last year so who knows.

He'll slow down some almost surely, but he's in a fantastic situation and has already shown himself to be a great flex (RB28 in standard) or even high end RB2 with any PPR (RB12 in full, without yet scoring a TD  ).

If Zenner, Cmike, or Quick look especially bad I can pick him back up maybe. I don't have bye week issues until after week 6, and don't see him cracking my lineup until then. Whereas if someone breaks out they might contribute immediately. It's a calculated moonshot admittedly. Edited to add: Lance Dunbar has never scored a TD since entering the league.

Dalton has outscored Peyton every week and is going up against the Defense giving up the most points to fantasy QBs. I certainly wouldn't have a problem sitting Peyton for Dalton this week.
