Which of the "value" running backs do you guys think are the best plays this week?

Crowell vs OAK - $4500
Woodhead @ MIN - $4400
JStew vs NO - $4900
Blount/Lewis vs JAX -$4200 (4k for Blount)
Bernard @ BAL - $4700
Morris @ NYG - $4700
Ivory @ PHI - $5000

I've got Crowell, Woodhead and Stewart in my speculative lineup but was wondering what you guys thought. These are the prices on DK, for what it's worth.

I'd go with Ivory/Lewis and a cheap high upside WR in the flex. It's 1 PPR, so i would rarely be starting 3 RB's over 3 WR's.

It's 3 WRs + a flex and yeah I definitely feel you there. In one of them I've got Brown/Edelman/Fitz and in another lineup Brown/Edelman/ARob, but adding a fourth WR as the flex is probably the best thing to do.

You think Lewis is still trustworthy after his fumbles though?

I like Woodhead a lot because he gets PPR points as a running back and sometimes does get goal line touches. I usually like anyone playing JAX but they've been stingy lately about running backs so I'd say that as long as Matt Jones doesnt leech touches Morris will be a great play as well.

That's my concern about Morris as well. I'm a Redskins fan and was stoked to see Jones do so well, but it really makes playing a Redskins RB a little dicey. However I think they're going to limit Jones touches to try and keep him fresh. They held him out of a few games of training camp when he wasn't even injured or nicked up, just to keep him fresh.

Then again, it could just turn into a hot hand situation, and that's Jones right now.
