Week 14 Questions

Q: I want to pick up Cedric Houston as a FA but I have to drop somebody. I have 6 RBs so I think one of them has got to go.

Which one do I release that has the least potential to be a move that comes back to kick me:

Benson, Mike Bell, Droughns, Rhodes, Brandon Jacobs

I am keeping Dillon as he has been my every week starter.

Also there are not many WR options out there so I have been starting Chambers as my flex WR/RB but do any of these guys warrant a start over him?


A:I'd drop Mike Bell. After Tatum's domination last week against the Seattle run D, I don't think we'll see much more Mike.

DeAngelo Williams looked awesome last week and may still be around. He gets a lot of catches and would be a great flex back. Would let you start Chambers at WR instead of at the flex.

Wali Lundy is a solid option. He's facing some awful run defenses in the next few weeks. He's starting too, so that's a plus. He's another guy who gets his share of catches and would be a good flex start.

Sammy Morris is starting in Miami with Ronnie Brown out with a broken hand.

Santonio Holmes is starting with Cedrick Wilson out this week (ankle). Would be a decent start against Cleveland.

Matt Jones might still be available. He's only good when he matches up on small corners playing man though. Those good matches for him are few and far between, but when he does get one, he can really dominate.

Whoever plays the Lions should have a good week in terms of WRs. I actually like Marcus Robinson this week. He's got a huge frame and good body control. He's got decent hands and should be able to fight for the ball easily over our weaker, smaller DBs.

Mark Bradley should start seeing more action as the Bears start resting Moose and Berrian a little more than normal. Bradley is quick, runs solid routes, and can stretch the field. I love what the guy brings to the team, he's far too underused.

I think we'll see much, much more Brandon Jacobs in the coming weeks, especially considering Tiki has been talking retirement. Jacobs should start seeing more than just goal line duty.

Also, I think Jerious Norwood is going to start seeing many more carries, as Warrick Dunn will be 32 at the end of the season and has more wear on him than Tiki Barber, who's already talking retirement. Dunn's a good player, but with Atlanta at 6-6 and in the wildcard hunt, they're going to build for the future while keeping their players healthy and rested. Norwood is a very fast back, who's similar to Dunn...so the drop off wouldn't be huge.

There may be a Travis Henry is the FA/waiver pool as well...you never know.
