Not his fault. He tries but he can't do much if his line keeps this up

Kenny Britt or Josh Gordon?

Both are available, and I'm probably only gonna get one, which is the better pick up?

^^^would say Britt but that clown hasn't done squat when healthy and hasn't been healthy much. But its Clev after all, that O is bad minus Richardson

I'd probably grab Britt as well if you can afford to wait a couple weeks. Hopefully he gets healthy at some point.

What are people's thoughts on the Cards' RB situation now that Williams is done?

As someone who watched last week's game, there is no running game in Arizona, the line is nonexistent. But they do play Buffalo. Apparently LaRod Stephens-Howling is starting.

Who should I target below in Standard scoring format?

Starks (Benson will eventually be back)
A Green (Benson will eventually be back)
B Bolden (will he keep the #2 spot behind Ridley?)
La'Rod Stephens (Will there be enough opportunities in Ariz for the running game?)
D Woodhead (Is he a situational player? Will he get enough touches each week?)
J Stewart (He's a FA in my league, but hasn't really done much)

Thanks!

Cool thanks. Just saw the news.

Its looks like Best is coming back next week. If he's not picked up in your league already, make sure he is asap.

Yeah I'm a Brown owner and had to grab Ballard. Glad I beat my league mates.

This week sucks for picking up a bench RB to use for a day... Green I guess.

What are your options?

Guys that are probably on your waiver wire if you're in a ten team league (at least some of them):

Dwyer (both Mendenhall and Redman are out this week)
Ogletree (Bryant just popped up as questionable. Late week injuries are never good. Carolina is playing without their best CB)
Avery (Haden on Wayne all day)
Gordon (boom or bust, but that Indy secondary gives you big boom potential)
K. Wright (He's being pegged as a short yardage guy, but he still gets targets and the Bills have given up big days to Welker and Crabtree recently)
M. Williams (It may feel hard to trust him, but New Orleans is going to give up a ton of yards in Tampa Bay and he's been playing well)

Long shots in deeper leagues:
B. Batch (may share touches with Dwyer), Peerman (the Law Firm is starting to look pedestrian), Vereen (Ridley's have trouble hanging on to the ball, and there could be some clock killing), Jets WRs (good luck picking which one), Rams WRs (good luck picking which one).

In a funny turn of events, I'm a Ballard owner and I had to grab Brown.

If you are going to go deep, Phillip Tanner may not be a terrible pick. As a Jones/Murray owner last year, Felix is bound to screw up or get hurt and if Murray is out awhile then Tanner may be worth a chance.

Dwyer sucks, everyone else is a good add. I don't agree with Batch, Vereen, any other Rams WR. Peerman looks promising and I'd go with Stephen Hill.

Looking good so far on the Vereen call, at least in terms of opportunity.

Who's a better pick up going forward:

Jennings from Jacksonville (RB)
or
LaRod Stephens-Howling from Arizona (RB)

Jennings. LSH is worse and has a hard schedule. You could pick up Wells by the time he is usable.

Brandon Stokley vs NO.

It's gonna be a shoot out and NO has given up the most FP to WR this year. Peyton loves to hit his slot man and Stokley has proven himself to be a reliable target. My prediction is that he scores a TD and gets at least 50 yards.
