Montario Hardesty

[a4ce]

This dude is playing behind Peyton Hillis but when given the chance, he looks like he's come back from his injury quite well. When Hillis didn't play due to a strep throat, Hardesty put up some decent numbers, 14/67 rushing and 3/19 receiving, albeit it was against the 'Phins. Against TEN, he went 7/22 rushing and 5/49 receiving. In PPR leagues, I think he definitely should be owned.

With HIllis' contract talks stalling and Hillis not really having the upper hand in the situation, what do you all think about Montario?

[GoodOl'Days]

Yes, definitely own him in all but shallow leagues. It looks like he's the type to be on the field in running and 3rd down passing situations so the potential to produce well every week is there.

Word, i picked him up bc Hillis has taken a fat Cleveland steamer on my fantasy roster so far. So i'd recommend picking him up and playing him this weekend. Hillis might be at this point screwed until he becomes a FA in 2012. But i will say at some point Hillis will return and play but i think it will maybe in a blocking role.
