Frank Gore?????

This is a bad post - "Frank Gore????" does not belong in the injury thread... you scared the crap out of me.

This is injuries & player updates. not just injuries.

Frank Gore has been very good thus far and I am feeling good about picking him as a sleeper in all 3 of my leagues but will he keep it up??

He is looking like the next lamont Jordan.

He's way better than Lamont Jordan...........IMO

I was refering to last years Lamont Jordan (productive back on a bad team)

Could it be? Say it ain't so. Norv Turner is a RB genius! Did it with Emmitt. Did it with SDavis when he was with the 'Skins. I think.

No chance. Lamont had a great entire season last year. Gore has only had 2 good games. He could easily blow it next week and everyone would (and probably will) be kicking themselves for not selling him high. I'd get rid of him now when he's way overvalued behind that awful 49er line.

Don't want to get nitpicky... but the majority of threads are on injuries. Plus, there is not a shred of "injury" or "update" news/material in the original post.

Edit: I see the mods moved the thread.

BTW - IF Gore can put up good numbers against the Eagles... his stock goes through the roof... who has the guts to take that gamble? Eagles are going to be fired up after that loss to the Giants - plus they shutdown Tiki's rushing.

I'm taking the gamble - ONE MORE WEEK

As long as you're looking at it the way that you are that makes complete sense. You're absolutely right - IF he puts up a 100 yard day and hits paydirt at least once his value skyrockets and people start the inevitable comparisons to the fantasy production of the big 3. You put together a package deal and get LJ coming off the bye week and laugh all the way to the bank. It's a calculated risk. You just have to look at your team and decide whether you need to play it safe or go for broke.

if he puts up 100 and a score vs philly youre still gonna have to package him and a top wideout for LJ. and kc looks like garbage this year.

if he puts up 100 and a score vs philly i dont see any reason to move the stud unless someone overpays you, not vic versa.

With the deals I've seen some people making for Gore lately I don't think you'll have to give up much with him to get LJ. In a league where we keep 3 guys I got Tatum Bell, Lundy (before the Gado trade) and a 1st round draft pick for him. He's good...but I don't think he's quite that good. And that was after week 1...I can only imagine what a great performance against Philly could do.

Most people want to be the one that found the 'next Larry Johnson'. They want to be the one that gets that sleeper that breaks out. That's something that can help you add value to your team in a situation like this.

well imo you got completely ripped in that deal. you got lundy whos nothing, tatum nothing but a rbbc back and a # 30-40 pick in next years draft(everyone keeps 3 right?). we'll see i guess.

[The Loveable Losers]

Most backs in the league are in a RBBC this year. I already flipped Tatum though and added more to the draft for next year as well as got the space in my lineup to play Maroney.

I've said it earlier in the thread...Gore is a good running back. But he'll be pushing it on SF to finish in the top-10. He may make it, he may not, but he's not a guaranteed top-10 back even if he stays healthy (which is another big question mark). If SF gets down by too much they're going to have to pass and while Gore's a good pass catching rb I'd imagine he'd be the outlet as opposed to the primary target. Bryant, Battle, Davis and others will get their's as well so unless the SF defense finds a way to stop the other teams Gore won't be running the football enough to stay in the top-10 consistantly.
