Bye Week RB Help (Posted on 11/7/12 at 3:13 pm)
All of my RBs are on bye or hurt so I'm stuck starting Issac Redman and Shane Vereen. I picked up Vereen in hopes he gets a decent workload against the horrible Bills' run D. Other options include: Danny Woodhead, Taiwan Jones, Jacquizz Rodgers, Chris Ivory or Mark Ingram. Should I roll with Vereen and hope for a lucky TD?

Rodgers can be somewhat valuable in a PPR league since he can catch passes out of the backfield and the Falcons will try to keep Turner fresh.
Taiwan Jones might get most of the carries but if Oakland falls behind, they will probably pass more which plays into Reese getting receptions. And there is the threat that Taiwan fumbles which might get him pulled in favor of Reese. It a pretty big mess in Oakland.
I tried to pick up Reese but settled with acquiring Jones. It basically boils down to what you think will happen this week.
