**WHIR - How do i look after adding some rb depth? - WHIR**

Postby ramzstriker » Sun Aug 09, 2009 10:16 am

QB - Phillip Rivers, Trent Edwards
RB - Matt Forte, Jonathan Stewart, LenDale White, Le'Ron McClain, Lesean McCoy, Jerious Norwood
WR - Greg Jennings, Roddy White, Eddie Royal, Patrick Crayton

DEF - Steelers

K - Rob Bironas

Added:
McClain- TD machine last season, will be extra valuable if McGahee gets hurt
Norwood - I believe that Turner may fall into the curse of 370 carries...look out for norwood if that happens, he has been rumored to spell turner more often anyway this season
Crayton - first year as the #2 starter in big D...decent bye week play as of now

Dropped: Chambers, Fassano, and Charger D

Let me know what you think....i will help you in return

Still, I believe the RBs you have won't suffice. McLain has been moved to fullback full time, and Ray Rice will be getting most of the carries, probably regardless of if McGahee is healthy. Norwood could be a sneaky pickup if Turner goes down, but remember, Turner does not have that many miles on him being a backup his whole career.

Be wary of Jonathan Stewart's achilles. if he has a starting opportunity, he'll run with it, but his health may not hold up. Plus, they have Deangelo Williams too, so I doubt they would want to risk ANYTHING with Stewart. Overall, not a bad team, I'd try and trade Eddie Royal and Jonathan Stewart for a better #2 RB though.

help?

Yeah, I'd have to agree that you're lacking in RBs quite a bit. The only guy I'd feel good about starting is Forte now and Stewart towards mid-season...by then it might be too late. I might try to package a couple guys and trade up with someone for a full time starting RB...

I would try to upgrade at WR, not sold on Jennings.
I like the RB's

Overall good, IMO

I still think you lack guys who are going to get carries. You are banking on injuries and I hate doing that. Maybe I'm bias because I have Turner in a league but the 370 isn't as bad as it sounds. In fact, throw in Forte's receptions from last year and he is almost there. Plus he had more carries than Turner the year before when he was a senior and Mike was a back-up guy.

If your league is TD heavy though, you've got a bunch of guys who can score. You could add an upside guy like Shonn Greene if he's around.

QBs are great.

WRs are good although on a roster that starts 3 I'd like to have 5.
