Yeah I think Davis is a known commodity, not too excited about him.
I'd gamble and pick up Jackson.

I just dropped Winston for Jackson, Rolling Brees at my QB spot. Only 5 Bench spots. Per advice from here Winston was clogging by bench. So like Gyno said If he goes HAM great if not just kick him to the curb

Alright added Jackson and Knile in league with big bench. Dropped Dixon. Running back craziness this week

There is a small part of me.. maybe 10%.. that thinks Davis could be good. He's had moments but generally been terrible. He's more of an athlete than a RB w vision or patience

GB hasn't had a RB like Jackson recently - he's smaller and quicker than the Lacy and Starks. And that alone intrigues me bc maybe they need that change of pace

Don't you think it says something about Jackson though, that he was only called up when the team was basically forced to do so. Last week for instance, instead of add him to the 53, they went into the game with one "healthy" RB, and probably felt if something happened to LAcy, they'd rather use TyMo than Jackson? I think Davis has a better shot of being fantasy relevant these next few weeks. I think the better add (if you have the bench space or IR spots) is Starks. He'll be back in a few weeks and i suspect when he returns it's basically his job. You'll have a decent starting RB for the end of the season plus fantasy playoffs.

Jackson is still a practice squad RB without a NFL snap

That chance exists, albeit small, that he does well. Davis is already gone in all leagues - so going off that I think it's worth the risk of adding him.

hey I wrote c mike off because I believed this, its rare for the Packers to go out and trade for a guy so maybe they like something there

The Packers probably don't even know at this point. Will put both of them out there and see how it goes.

There is a lot of tape on Davis to draw conclusions from, that's the only thing. There are some ST implications a him as well that will spell ty mont n Cobb since theirs depth is running thin

The C mike thing was a bit bizarre as he had less than 50 career carries and had looked good in limited run - more of a case of not trusting your eyes

Which would you rather have in standard? Montgomery or Jackson (or Davis or Starks)?

Lacy owner here, should i drop him for:

Jacquizz(I have Martin)
Gillislee(guy I'm playing has Shady)

As of now, I'm starting Tevin, Ware and have Martin on the bench- and about to drop Lacy
Or
I have Ryan at QB, so I could drop Bortles and pick up both Gillislee and Jacquizz
