When M. Faulk returns

[Angleton Wednesday]

Do you think Faulk is going to make a big impact in fantasy leagues when he first returns or will it take a couple weeks for him to warm up?

[zombiez]

I think he is going to run like a raped ape.....a....because I think his knee hurt him all along.......and b....because Lamar will have out performed him

[TFM]

Hmm ... i've been pondering it for much longer than i should have, but i just have to know - is running like a raped ape good or bad?

[AF]

I never knew apes were fast runners......

I do think that he will be better than he was at the start of the season. At least I hope he will be because J. Lewis, Moss, and M. Faulk will be a nice combo on my team. Even with Lewis having his bye week and having Faulk go down I am 2nd in my league's total points by just 8. With Faulk back I hope to make a solid playoff run and take over the point lead. If I were to win the league and the point total I would get 80% of our league pool which is $10 a team and $1 a transaction in a 10 team league. I sure could use that money.

Who do guys think is gonna have better numbers the rest of the year between: Faulk, Tomlinson, Henry.

I currently have Henry and am looking at trading him for either of these two. I can give Henry/Horn (I'm stacked at wr) for either of these two.

Faulk's schedule is easier than either of the other two and he plays on a better team than Tomlinson (Buffalo is pretty comparable to STL).

What do you think? Below is my roster.

The Luap Weasels
QB - Bulger, (FA to be picked up later)
RB - Henry, A Green, Barber, Hambrick, Shipp, McGahee
WR - Moulds, Horn, Driver, Kor Robinson, Ch Johnson
K - Janikowski
Def - Indy

I think Faulk is the way to go; for one thing, I think you could get him for Henry straight up. He went a couple of picks after LT in almost everybody's draft and the shadow of his 2 injuries should be enough for someone to trade him away.

Another thing, as a Henry fan I know you don't want somebody swooping in for McGahee, but I think you're wasting a roster spot. McGahee is so very unlikely to be doing much of anything for Buffalo this season. I'm thinking that you might want to get a head start on QB and just pick somebody up like Leftwich, Carr, anybody who might become a hot enough commodity to use in a trade. That's just my two cents.

I personally don't think Faulk will be that good after he comes back. I woud keep Henry, that's what I am doing. Although, LT is very tempting, I may want to get him. Is it a keeper league?

[DUKE]

If I were a Faulk owner (I made it a point not to be in my drafts), I would be a bit nervous. It's not a guarantee that he comes back and dominates. I'm going to watch closely how explosive he looks compared to how Gordon looks (whom I have in one league).

[big shot]

out of tomlinson, faulk and henry. tomlinson is the hands down obvious choice.

I think Faulk better come back and go freakin off or else he and Warner are going to become even closer friends while they are sitting on the bench together.
