OK, with Charles looking like a go, I gotta start him.

Garcon and Donnell have already played.

That leaves 4 slots for the following 5 players:

J Charles
D Murray
A Bradshaw

A Johnson
M Crabtree

Gotta sit one. Not sitting Charles or Murray, so the choice becomes, "which of these three do you sit?":

A Bradshaw vs Tenn
A Johnson vs Buff
M Crabtree vs Philly

I like all of these guys because of the matchups. Its a 1/2 PPR league with 6pt TD. I'm inclined to play Bradshaw because he'll get the carries and a few receptions.

So now I'm talking myself into siting either Crab or AJ. What says the FB?

I think I'm leaning to sitting Crab.

I think Trent is a few weeks away from being THE guy there, but not yet.

Until he gets hurt, he's a tremendous talent. TENN has been getting gashed. I like him (unitl his inevitable injury, lol).

I really can't make a bad decision here though. It's a good problem to have.

ETA: Actually my worse decision was to start Garcon. But i mitigated that by starting Donnell over Vernon Davis.

Bradshaw's value thus far has been dependent on catching TDs. He has 3 already in 3 games(2 in 1 game). That is already a career high. it's not something that is sustainable.


While he is playing well, he has 25 carries in 3 games. Just not enough for me. Trent Richardson will never be the guy, but he is eating into his carries.

this!

it's a better matchup then Bradshaw vs Ten, imo.


as far as AJ vs Bradshaw, AJ is an all pro WR & Bradshaw is splitting carries. Im taking my chances with AJ but thats just me.

He is running well, so maybe he finds the endzone on the ground this week? IDK. He doesn't have a rushing TD yet. All of his scores have come via the pass.

Trent Richardson played 38 snaps last week. Bradshaw got 25. so they are still giving Richardson too much work for my liking.

Yea, Trent's carries increased last week. He may not be the guy unless AB gets hurt, but I think that's a moderate possibility considering his past.

You sure? I have Charles too, but I'm not so sure. He doesn't play until Monday, so there's no room for error. Either way, Davis will get carries as they ease Charles back.

You can't sit Charles if he's a go. The Chiefs are in desperate need of a win and are going to give JC a lot of touches.

But how can you KNOW he's a go when he plays Monday? The Chiefs have not been the best on providing accurate injury info.

How can you KNOW anybody is going to make plays. He's a top five draft pick who's playing and it's only week 4.
