Bennie, LJ or someone else? WHIR

Postby smoothcats13 » Wed Oct 07, 2009 8:30 am

I got hit by injuries and the bye week this week and I'm stuck deciding between Bennie Wells and Larry Johnson as my 2nd RB. Who's the better option? Bennie plays against Houston which is a great matchup, and LJ takes on Dallas.

I could also go get Bush, Fargas, Ward, Cadillac or Fred Taylor off of waivers. Leave a link.

Yikes.

Those are all ugly matchup wise. Beanie does have the best matchup but is he going to get the carries? LJ is not even an option imo, Cowboys are tough against the run and LJ has not done well this year.

Mendenhall or Harrison available?

I guess Beanie and hope that he gets carries otherwise I'd take a chance on Cadillac who should receive the bulk of the work for Tampa.

Co sign the above response. Check if Mendenhall is available, though after 30pts on Sunday night I doubt he's available still in most leagues.

Taylor maybe, but NE is an ugly situation with Belichek's RB by committee theory, though he's likely to get the most touches of all the NE backs.

If I had that Crew I'd probably pick up Caddy, and play him this week. I'd drop LJ. I'd hold onto Bennie for a while in case Hightower gets hurt or ARI starts to play him more

I'd stay away from all those waiver guys this week the matchups just aren't there. I'm going to with LJ this week DAL is struggling with the passing game and so is KC. This could be a ground game for sure and you can definitly run a little on DAL. LJ give u the best option for carries and touchdowns this week.
