So, i took sproles late for the handcuff. But, now im considering playing both. Non-ppr league, should I play both Sproles and McCoy this weekend?

Well, considering you haven't told us who your other running backs are I'm going to assume those are your only two, so, yes, you should start both.

I wouldn't play sproles in a non-ppr. I know he got most of his yards in week 1 from rushing, but this is still Sproles we're talking about.

Of course, it's hard to say you shouldn't start him when I have no idea who your other options are.

Sorry, should have cleared that up a bit. Other backs are Carlos Hyde, Doug Martin, and Bernard Pierce.

Those aren't very good options, but I would start McCoy and Martin.

I know, I wasn't present at draft and got auto drafted. Think I should put Sproles on the trade block?

The problem with sproles is that he isn't a true handcuff because if McCoy goes down he still isn't going to get majority of the carries. His stock definitely rises if McCoy goes down, but he isn't a true handcuff. You are in quite the predicament here. I would look to get rid of him, but I would probably package him with one of your WR and try to upgrade at RB2.
