Injury/Interesting info thread

Wow. Let me run and pick up Dwyer. Wait, why am I picking up Dwyer? So he can sit on my bench for four weeks while I feel superior? Bleah. Let him sit on somebody else's bench. You're welcome, Ellington owner.

On second thought, am I playing Ellington Owner anytime soon?

Lol.. very nice.

Dywer MIGHT be a decent add for someone who came out of the Draft hurting at RB.. or possibly has bye week issues during week 4.. otherwise, probably not

Have to be hurtin pretty bad at RB to do that..................now if he was a WR I may have to consider it!

 

[SteelersPride]

I stashed him. I have, ball, Jennings, Morris, Ingram dropped freeman for him

Well say you were one who thought you played 3 wr's with no flex so you didn't Draft a RB until the mid rounds. .. and had to fill out the roster with a couple lesser halves of committees. .. that kind of hurting at RB.

Even as much as I may need a running back, I couldn't do it. I got as far as "well, he is a starting RB", and that was it.

So Shorts is out... Allan Hurns anyone? Marqise? ........Shoelace?

If injuries happen don't u want a starter, I want guys who touch the ball, not potential

Until the bye weeks happen, or injury strikes, I'm happy with a little " Wait and see" potential, over the known "sub-mediocre"

 

[SteelersPride]

I suppose different strategies see them both

 

[wilwhite]

Looks like Tate might miss 2-4 weeks.

Congrats Will.................I just happened to look on this thread again and saw that..............nowhere else have I seen that name mentioned before game time!

Undrafted, tore it up in pre-season, which I didn't care much about, but last Sunday makes those numbers a little meaningful. He's a White Beer now.

A anyone else catch the pregame interview with Gerhert? Some chick asked him for a Jag's fantasy sleeper. .. He said Hurns. Ironic. . Maybe Toby should be NFL network's fantasy guru?

Didn't see it but hopefully if asked in week 2 he says Gerhart!

That might be the only way he provides value to fantasy owners....

Well when your choices are Grimes and Blue....................

(Rotoworld)Arian Foster said the heavy workload he saw in Week 1 is here to stay.
Analysis: Foster racked up 27 carries and two catches as the Texans grinded through the Redskins in Week 1. New coach Bill O'Brien is something of a rare breed these days as he has no interest in any kind committee in the backfield. "He said that all offseason, and (it's) not lip service," Foster said. "That's what he wants to do." Arian is going to pile up touches in a cake matchup at Oakland Sunday.

(RotoWire) Lacy (concussion) was in full pads during Thursday's practice, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Analysis: Donning full pads generally implies that contact will be made, and according to the Green Bay Press-Gazette, Lacy has in fact cleared the league's concussion protocol, thereby giving owners the all-clear to utilize him in Week 2 against the Jets.

Good for Foot (and me in my money league)

(RotoWire) Gerhart indicated Thursday that his ankle is progressing and that he expects to play Sunday against Washington, Ryan O'Halloran of the Florida Times-Union reports. Analysis: Gerhart did not practice Wednesday, but assuming he is able to get some work in over the next couple of days, his optimistic stance with regard to his Week 2 status will gain added plausibility.
