Who would you rather stash on your team as a potential lottery ticket in case Lynch or Spiller goes down?

I currently have Fred but am thinking of dropping him for Christine.

Jackson's got the better chance to play, but Michael is going to be a stud one day.

That's what I'm thinking. Spiller's more likely to get hurt, but FJax is 32 and struggled last year. In this league I have Trent and Alf as starters, so I'm mostly looking for a homerun. Might swing for Michael.

Jackson because Christine is a girl's name.

No brainier. Fred Jackson is proven. Rookie RBS are a crapshoot.

You have to cuff Spiller IMO

Jackson isnt worthless, and could still be a decent flex play depending on matchups.

Unless it's a keeper league, I'd probably opt for Jackson. Lynch is too reliable.

Well I don't have Spiller, but I swiped Jackson late in the auction for cheap. Michael is a free agent.

Is Helu available? I'd lean towards him over either of the other guys since you have Morris if possible. He's a handcuff that could blow up if ALF gets injured, and he actually has potential standalone value in PPR leagues as the 3rd down back

It is a keeper league (auction), but the minimum you can keep a RB for is $20 of a $100 cap...so would only keep him if he busted onto the scene this year and was the starter with top 8-10 potential next year.

I do have Helu. My RB's in that league: Trent, Alf, Helu, Mathews, Bradshaw, Vereen, and Jackson. 10 team auction, and we have fairly deep benches.

Are we even sure Michael would become the starter if Lynch got hurt?
