LeVeon Bell on waivers.....

[SmokingMonkey]

keeper 10tm standard.

Bell was dropped last week and thinking about getting him.
unfortunately, just don't think I have any room for him on my bench.

only guys that are even a possibility of dropping are:
DeAngelo Williams
Giovani Bernard
Boldin
Ben Tate
Gronkowski

I drop DWill.

I drop DWill.

Knee-jerk thought would be either D-Will or Tate.

But I'm with WilWhite... D-will is having a decent outing so far, but with J. Stewart's return looming in 3.5 weeks, that backfield situation could get cloudy. I think Bell is certain to return for week 4 or 6 (week 5 bye). And upon his return he is the clear cut starter. He is starting "individual" drills this week, so he is making his comeback. Reports are going to start surfacing about it, which will drive up his FF stock. If you need D-Will this week then you could possibly get away with waiting one more week. But IMO, if you don't need D-Will now, then maybe try trading him or just drop him for Bell.

There's a fair amount of risk involved with Bell since Pitt's O isn't looking great at all. But I think they will resurface.

I wouldn't do DWILL to get an unproven RB playing behind that o-line.

I realize I'm in the smallest of minorities here when it comes to L. Bell.. but I have no faith in a big banger playing begins a bad line.

Who are your other WR? I would not drop Bolden, he seems primed for a good yr and it seems Kaep is his main guy. Last game vs Sea was a tough game, would not look much into that. Seem Sea has a lot of weapons this yr and when/if Harvin comes back, its more mouths to feed.

Thing is it's a 10-team league, so I'm thinking DWill should rarely get a start. Bell at least has a chance to merit an every-week start.

 

[TREFF]

That's a good point. .but.. the guy is currently 2nd in the entire NFL in rushing. ..I mean, I have no faith in DWILL remaining in that position, but it is something. Maybe he should be getting more starts in fantasy land?? (Shocked the hell outta me when I checked the stats)

Disclaimer◆◆◆◆
currently perusing NFL.com on the stats. .. neither Julio Jones nor Calvin Johnson are listed in the receiving leaders. .. perhaps NFL.com isn't a reliable source to claim DWILL as #2 leading rusher??? Oops

Upon further review. .. he's #5...wth is NFL.com doing over there??

I would stay put. I think your other options are hands down better than a crappy, injured, unproven RB behind a crappy offensive line who just MIGHT be good this year.

You don't. Tempting but stand pat.

Wow. I am guessing there are a couple weak teams with guys like Bell getting dropped and your team being that stacked. That is rare, even for a 10 teamer.

 

[Pitt Browns Fan]

The only one of those I would possibly consider is Williams. That might be hard to do, but as someone else has said Stewart will be back and Bell should be the primary back in Pittsburgh. I also think that when Heath Miller returns, that will open things up a little more. If Haley likes to give Redman and Dwyer opportunities, look for Bell to get his.

I agree with Sam. Don't let the greener grass get you here. Bell has not had one NFL carry yet. Stick with your roster.
