Who to start...Forsett, Barber, K. Smith

Postby slacker007 » Sat Dec 05, 2009 10:14 pm

Need a 2nd RB and am leaning toward J. Forsett. I also have Barber or K. Smith. Barber is totally inconsitent with a rotation. Smith is a sole starter on a bad team. Forsett might have a rotation but has done very well. Thoughts?

The niners haven't given up 100 yds to a rusher in awhile...but i think Forsett might be your safest bet..

Smith has been pretty milktoast in his past few outings. His last big game was vs the Brownstains. Cincy is a MUCH tougher matchup . . . especially with him playing on the road.

I agree about Barber . . . chancy play there. I like Forsett. He's their most dynamic RB on the field . . . anyone with eyeballs can see that. And it's not like it's a tough matchup . . . SEA is at home, and SF is the 15th worst defense vs fantasy RBs. That's in the bottom half.

From Rotoworld:

Justin Forsett injured his quadriceps in Seahawks practice Friday and is now listed as questionable for Week 13.
The injury is being termed a quadriceps "strain." "I think he'll be OK, but I can't tell you for sure," coach Jim Mora said. Forsett tried to downplay the injury, calling it a "little tweak," but this makes the decision easy for fantasy owners contemplating using Forsett against San Francisco's top-five run defense. With Julius Jones fully expected back, Forsett is a poor flex option.

I would go Barber considering what he did vs the G-Men last go round.

With Forsett questionable, Jones back in at starter, and Seattle playing at 4pm and the Cowboys using a rotation at RB, I'd go with Smith knowing he'll get the most touches.
