RB Help ~ Forsett, C. Brown, Buckhalter, Cartwright...

[HaFish]

I was set on playing Forsett until he strained his quad during practice today.
Now I'm unsure if I should just run with him or play one of the other guys...
C. Brown - Slaton is out
Buckhalter - Playing against K.C.
Cartwright - Will get around 15 touches...
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Thanks!

For me, it'd probably be a toss-up between Brown and Cartwright, assuming Forsett isn't at 100% (which would give Mora the perfect excuse to have Jones handle more of the load; still not sure why they're clinging to the idea of him as their prime RB).

Brown gets a big bump with Slaton out, but he'll generally only get points if he can catch, as Houston isn't much of a traditional running team. Plus, Jacksonville's pass defense is pretty bad, meaning Schaub will have even more incentive to pass all game.

Then again, Cartwright takes a hit because Washington will likely be playing from behind against the Saints most of the day.

If your league's PPR-heavy, maybe go with Brown and hope he gets a lot of short dump-offs from Schaub (ala Slaton the past couple weeks). If not, I'd say ride Cartwright and his (relatively) guaranteed workload.
