Sleeper Rb's/qb's

6 posts in this topic

I've looked at alot of my leagues and noticed RB is my biggest weakness.. granted its not as bad as I make it sound, followed by QB(depth)... usually have only 1 QB in a league :/... I fell in love with WR's lol

but does anyone have any RB's that are potential sleepers, that may be available (I have 4 different leagues going on lol)

How big is your league again?

RBs on the waiver wire are really bad this year. They usually are. That's why my draft stragey has always been load up on RBs (especially starters). WRs can always be picked up via free agency. Or traded for with your awesome RB core!

Smaller Leagues:
Donald Brown
Beanie Wells
L. McCoy
J. Harrison
F. Taylor

Deeper Leagues
G. Coffee (if still available)
J. Davis
C. Buckhalter
J. Forsett
T. Choice (1 week option)
L. Betts
J. Charles

I got the #1 picked and I thought I was cursed this year. But I'm glad I came away with AP instead of the grab bag of MJD/Turner/Forte/Slayton

yeah I took forte, I avoided LT turner and MJD, and didn't even consider slaton... and all i've heard so far is "oh forte will break out soon" .. for one of my main leagues (I've got one here against other ppl on the forum, and another one against a few friends) (we have a 12 person league) and my RB's are:
League 1:
Matt Forte
Tim Hightower
Felix Jones

(also in league 1, my lone QB is Matt Ryan)

League 2:
Darren Sproles
Tim Hightower
Reggie Bush
Leon Washington

Double Ouch on your 2 team's runningbacks. You have no true #1 guy right now. Forte should be, but hasn't stepped up yet. You should try and look into getting Beanie Wells to sit on your bench. Just incase if Hightower fails, you'll have Beanie to fall back on.

Coffee.. someone probably already picked him up, though.. if not, jump all over it. he'll be gold the next couple weeks.. I picked up Tashard Choice last week and ended up playing him and he put up great numbers.. felix jones is already declared out, too, so if MBIII cant go, he's a must start.. you have to monitor it though, if barber playes, i wouldnt go with Choice

Yeah, I picked up Coffee today off Waivers. Needed a decent RB for the next few weeks, since my RBs before were:
Rashard Mendenhall, Le'Ron McClain, and Felix Jones. My laptop's HD crashed the day of the draft, so my picks were all automated :\

Jones served well the past few weeks, but with him doubtful, I needed someone else. Saw Coffee available so I picked him up.
