Charles, Westbrook or Mendenhall? WHIR

Postby TALLDAD » Thu Nov 05, 2009 10:20 pm

Trying to pick the right backs for a change this week for a change any ideas. I'm up against the first place team this week. I'm leaning towards Mendenhall, but my gut is telling me Charles will try to make it hard for LJ when he comes back to get on the field. Also have Westbrook, but boy has he been a let down this season.

Grant, Ryan RB GB @TB
Mendenhall, Rashard RB PIT @DEN
Crabtree, Michael WR SF TEN

I think you have to go Grant and Mendenhall in this situation...but I can see how you would be tempted to plug in Charles....Good luck!

id def start ryan grant. for your #2 rb i go with jamaal charles. simply because parker is feeling better he might not even wear that special shoe so their might be a timeshare. charles isnt going to share the ball with anyone thus giving him more opportunity to get yds/tds.

grant and charles

I'm on record in a few threads as saying I have no trust in Westbrook. The guy is coming off a concussion and was arguably not even playing like an RB2 even before that. Mendenhall is a tougher sit, but the Broncos do have a defense that allows 86 rushing yards a game and has only giving up three scores on the ground.

I think Charles is your guy.
