I would never take McGahee in the 5th-7th. I'm still trying to fill my starting lineup; not taking risks on backups with no NFL experience. If he's there very late and I have no outstanding needs, I'd take him, but I wouldn't take him early.

He won't be there very late, in FF you have to gamble sometimes based on potential and someone in every league will probably gamble on McGahee.

At the earliest, I'm thinking Henry will be taken at around the mid-2nd round. At the latest, probably early-mid third.

As for McGahee, in redraft leagues, he will probably be taken around the 8th round or later. In keeper and dynasty leagues, maybe as early as the 6th.

Well, I'll gladly let others take a risk on him, and I'll stick with my other sleepers.

A man after my own heart (except for the whole Eagles fan thing). You looking for a 2004 keeper league? I just so happen to have a few spots left in the cafe invite keeper league I started.
;-)

Anyway, I think of all the handcuff/backup RB sleepers out there, DeShaun Foster is #1. Chris Brown is #2. If you're going to take a chance on anyone in the 6th round, it should be one of those two. Why? They both saw playing time last season and on top of that, saw significant playoff time. When the games mattered the most, their respective coaches were confident enough in their abilities to let them play. Not only that, both back up old workhorse RBs, that have seen better days.

Hey there. I actually am interested in a keeper league for this year (I'm assuming since it's new that you guys haven't drafted yet), so I'd like some info if you would want me in your league. Thanks. ;-D

I see this as the Davis/Foster situation of last year. As long as Henry is healthy it seems to me that he will get almost the full workload with McGahee spelling him now and then.

The other situation is that McGahee is so outstanding that he takes the job from Henry. Anyway, I would not fret about this. You should full well know how it's is going to go down before fantasy draft day.
