Mcgahee is a RB that you wanna target in trades late in the season IMO. The real reason for drafting this guy in the first place is that you may have a late season Stud RB if the Bill's fall out of playoff contention. You may want to grab him around week 8 or so, because as the season progresses and Mcgahee gets more touches, or the Bills allude to giving him more touches, owners will be more and more reluctant to let him go.
Buffalo has an entremely EASY fantasy playoff schedule (weeks 14-16), so if you have Mcgahee on your roster at that point, and the Bill's decide to give him a test drive, he could put up some huge points for you.
On the other hand, the Bill's could rely on old reliable Travis Henry and you will have wasted a roster spot for no other reason than a possible handcuff. Remember, Henry plays on pretty much any minor injury and is not necessarily a guy you absolutely NEED to or even want to handcuff...
