How much to bid on Brandon Jackson? *UPDATE* Grant out year

[harold_bush]

Bump to try and keep this all in one post, see several others started after this one.

It is now being reported that Grant is done for the year. What in the hell does that do to the bid?

It still really doesn't matter. I've been watching the Packers for quite some time and they were ecstatic when they drafted Brandon Jackson and extremely tempted to cut him by the start of the next offseason. They were very disappointed with his timid, hesitant running. He has obviously improved, but he is still not a top 10 RB, not even with Grant out.

This is my first year messing with FAAB as opposed to waivers. What a week for our league's first foray into FAAB, huh?

In most people's minds, a starting RB on the FA is very, very valuable. Even if you don't think he can be a great player, I believe that you should pull out all the stops (well, almost) when it comes to acquiring Mr. Jackson. I'd rather sacrifice some money down the road (which I may or may not need) to get a RB who I know is the absolute starter right now.

I am the only player left in my league to still have $100 of waiver money...everyone else made at least $10 worth of transactions before the season actually started.

I am considering bidding $91 on him as a guaranteed starter in an elite offense.

Bid to get him, Trade him for WR. You really need a WR.
