If you read yours first and mine second, it kind of makes more sense.

Me too. I got Dwyer for a buck and just picked up Redman yesterday off free agency.

Having a third RB will be nice because I do not trust Demarco and Mathews to stay healthy.

Just got Dwyer off waivers, hope he can expand off that preseason performance the other day.

Yeah I picked up Dwyer, but dropped him for Redman. Redman is 1st on the depth chart.

Redman and Dwyer will be RBBC but if I had to pick one it would be Dwyer. He's slimmer, like a small Jerome Bettis, looks much quicker then last year and started the majority of the end the season last year. Redman will only come in to disappoint. Guess this is why I don't draft till next weekend.

Also Redman hasn't been officially named the starter for week 1, that's just for preseason depth only.

I just stashed the starter, as slated as this time; I will never play him. Best I can hope for is a trade with the Bell owner.

That's fine, both RB are worth a flex play at best for the moment. Cant hurt to spend a late rounder on either. If Dwyer is sitting around with four rounds left I'm going to take him.

I'd hate to have a team where I had to flex one of those guys

You think Dwyer takes over? I don't see why the #3 on the DC hopscotches the #1.

eta: frick it, I picked my rookie back up. I don't like what I saw from their o-line anyway. Wasted space for a #5 in a backfield that will be a revolving injury.

picked Bell as a FLEX back hours before the MNF injury. I'm pissed about this because I skipped over Lacy, Bernard & a handful of other backs.

I'm just glad that my other two leagues happen after the 3rd week preseason game.

Thats why I said "at best" a flex player possibly during a bye week. Dwyer had 600 yards and 50 more carries to Redmans 400. Both had 2 rushing TDs. Plus I know Redman is dealing with a shoulder problem still. It's something to stay from if you can.

beanie scares me with his injury history. But, I am interested in whether Turner or McGahee get a phone call within the first month of the season.

Those two and Bell is who I had my eye on and now might just be those two.

Lotta people sleeping on D. Wilson too.

I want Spiller/McCoy and Ridley and as long as I have those two, I should be set at RB. Gonna load up on WRs the next 3 rounds and probably won't get a QB til 6th or 7th like last year.

The only thing that hurt his value imo was Andre Brown. Is he a great FLEX option? Yes. But, would I pick him as a RB2? More than likely. But, I'd feel a bit skittish.
