Bench Forte (Pitt) for Addai (@Mia)? WHIR!

Postby yellowmandm00 » Wed Sep 16, 2009 12:28 pm

It's a non-PPR league.

My hope is that the Bears are able to find ways to get Forte involved (without running) against the Steelers. But after watching Chris Johnson struggle to find room last week, I'm not sure a week of preparation will help too much.

What are your thoughts?

Of course, post your links.

I think your onto something. Its risky but I would play Addai. No one can run on PITT, if CJ couldn't Forte most likely will not be able to.

Miami D however is not great and it looks like Addai is playing with a chip on his shoulder. Tough to let your #1 sit week 2 but I would so.


Good Luck

Yeah, I don't want to discount Addai's situation. Not only is he the starter, but he's also the current 3rd down & goal-line back. There are only a handful of RBs in the league who have all of that, a porous defense, and a reliable passing attack to keep defenses honest.

This year, I went with Addai in both my leagues as my 3rd RB in the hopes he would be able to shake off Donald Brown. His upside for his ADP was too good to pass up.

At any moment, his situation could go sour. But I like him this week, given his circumstances. :)

As a Miami Dolphin season ticket holder I will tell you to start Addai. Miami's d is not the best and the Colts are going to walk ALL over Miami on Monday. Addai is your man, do it you wont regret it!
