I'd have him behind Woodhead...so no for me.

I'd be reluctant to start any Ravens RB this week. Because they have to think about their future at RB they may unveil Taliaferro... or they may lean more on Forsett based on his little bit of success last week... or they may conservatively go back to top-of-the-depth-chart and more-familiar-with-playbook Pierce. Or they may all get 8 or 9 touches. If there was ever a wait-and-see week for a RB squad, this is it.

Foster and Jackson are givens with that lineup. . But unless you have you start 3, I'd like to see the other flex options before saying yes

:agree:
I picked him up in one league but on the bench he'll sit until further notice...................Foster,FJax and Woodhead this week unless you have a better WR option at flex.

Well thankfully im set at WR. Ill be starting Calvin, Cobb, and Allen this week, with Cooks at the FLEX. So its really just about that #2 RB spot.

I think you could, and I thought about doing it but even with my poor RBs I wasn't really sure who I wanted to dump. Really my RBs probably all are droppable just about but each one just seems like it has just a chance at becoming a startable player at some time this week.

I wouldn't start Forsett. I picked up Taliaferro in all my dynasty leagues over Forsett. Forsett could be a short term option in a 16 team league or something. But I think sooner rather than later Taliaferro will take over the duties.

Yeah, I see what you mean, but I'm not sure if there is a running back conundrum as big as baltimores in the entire nfl. I think there is an opportunity for any one of Pierce, forsett, or tali to run away with the starting job and succeed doing it.

Taliaferro is the easy choice in dynasty. . As for this year that could be right on, but imho, there isn't going to be one back in Baltimore who will be consistent enough in the amount if touches to be "the guy", and when that's the case, and I have to choose one of them, I'm taking the guy I think will be in on the most passing situations, and that SHOULD be Forsett.

I don't think many will be in a position to need to play Forsett. Unless they totally bombed the draft at this point injuries shouldn't be a issue. A flex option at best and I would rather gamble on my WR's if that were the case. As the year goes on hopefully we see the younger back take over.

Damn wish that kind of stuff happened in my leagues... :pound:

On the Ravens RB's I happily won my bid on Taliaferro for $14 while Forsett went for a $31. :nod:
