Fantasy Dilemma - RB

[homeslice5484]

Ok, so I am in the playoffs. Had a bye last week. I went from 7th to 2nd place this season. I have 2 weeks of playoffs to compete in and its do or die.

Michael Turner is hurt again, so is Kurt Warner so I need some advice. Here is my lineup as of right now:

QB: Romo
RB: Slaton, Forsett
WR: Boldin, Jackson, Austin
TE: Olsen
D: Bengals
K: Longwell

Bench:
QB: Warner
RB: Kevin Smith, Snelling, Turner, Wells
WR: DeSean Jackson, Avant

I am weak again at RB. Rock Cartwright and Norwood look to be the best options in free agency besides Stewart who does not get as many carries as he used to. Cartwright has been getting carries and NO run D is not as good as it used to be, but is Portis coming back?

At QB it looks like only Fitzpatrick, Smith, Campbell, Redman, Boller, Young, Quinn, Freeman.

Any suggestions?

Gotta dump Romo, Dallas always blows in December.

Vince Young is a good pickup, or Josh Freeman.

RB wise it may be wise just to stick with Snelling or maybe grab Norwood.

Romo had a few good weeks for me, I picked him up after someone dropped him earlier in the season. Have not started him since.

Im not a fantasy guru but playing any Cowboy in December is asking to lose. Their December record the past four seasons is putrid. Romo always gets hot in November just to suck ass in December.

Re: Fantasy Dilemma - RB

I know, which is why I do not want to start Romo...he has not been very good the last few weeks, I usually start Kurt Warner

Re: Fantasy Dilemma - RB

I was going to try to pickup Norwood or Cartwright incase Snelling does not start for Turner, but I have no idea who to drop? Beanie Wells? Breaston?

FA Wire:

QB: Fitzpatrick, Smith, Campbell, Redman, Boller, Young, Quinn, Freeman.
RB: Carwright, Norwood
WR: Avant, Garcon, Crabtree, Britt, Coles

I could drop Breaston since I never start him and no use holding onto players now as insurance with 2 weeks left.

Re: Fantasy Dilemma - RB

anyone got any advice...I dropped Breaston and got Jason Avant incase Jackson does not play.

Should I still pickup Norwood or wait? Rock Cartwright? Only other WRs out there are Coles, Britt, and Garcon. If so, who do I drop?

Only other problem would be starting Romo if Warner does not play.

any other advice?

any other advice?

Is Chris Brown on the waiver wire? He's been playing half-way decently the last 2 weeks.

Who's the backup to Bradshaw in New Jersey? Isn't Bradshaw out with that foot injury? Don't know how that kid is doing or even if he's been getting any attempts.

I don't think Norwood is a bad option but I'm biased. I've liked him a lot since he came into this league, and you don't want to know the reason.

Re: Fantasy Dilemma - RB

i picked up Norwood cause I had to....and yes Chris Brown is available, but who knows who is gonna get the carries for Houston

Re: Fantasy Dilemma - RB

isnt Ladell Betts going to start for the Redskins this week?? he would likely get all the carries too

Re: Fantasy Dilemma - RB

Wow i didnt know that and the Skins have Portis out next week on the injury report http://www.redskins.com/gen/articles...port_49990.jsp

So Cartwright will likely get every carry for the Skins next week. But you have to realize they are playing the Saints and could go down bigtime early making the run game irrelevant.
