I'd drop Favre for him ASAP.

Please help with mind if you have a chance.
When in doubt, punt!

I agree but the problem is that our league has a 4 RB maximum allowed. So i already have 4 have to drop a RB for a RB

i have a similar problem. i like pierre thomas a little more, just because of his schedule down the stretch. But, at least Ronnie Brown is on the field. Neither are great options. If you need the help right away go with Ronnie Brown. If you can afford to plan for the playoffs, go with Pierre


please return the favor

IMO, yes. Who knows with PT will come back and Ivory is actually running the ball really well. Mix him in with Bush, those guys will steal quite a few carries when/if PT comes back. Brown will at least get his carries week in and week out. Help me with mine... viewtopic.php?t=483257

I think Ronnie Brown is also a good stash for the fantasy playoffs. Although I would argue for considering dropping Addai because my guess is by the time Addai is back, so would Donald Brown and I think that would limit Addai's fantasy value in a pass-first Colts offense.

I would not fault you for dropping Pierre Thomas though because there's speculation that Chris Ivory is the goal-line back moving forward and with Reggie Bush coming back, Pierre's touches will be even more limited.
