Should be alright. Joseph Addai played half of last season with fractured ribs.

westbrook missed one game previously with this same injury
too early to tell, but i'd bet he misses this week and after that who knows

I have a never draft Brian Westbrook rule for this reason.

yeah he usually does seem to miss at least a game to two each season, but hell in our league which has a ppr scoring system his value usually outweighs the missed game or two
However, if he's going to miss more than just a couple it's really going to hurt my team as well as the Eagles...he is their centerpiece

he has been really healthy the last 2 seasons
also, i usually do my best to back up my#1 rb with his backup when possible

You're not talking about the Bears game right?
Westbrook is a beast by the way playing through that injury. He went to the locker room in the 1st or 2nd quarter, I can't remember, but he was complaining of chest pains. Must've been it and he came back out anyway and finished the game.

i don't remember who the game was against, but it was back in 2004
the bears game he missed this year was b/c of anankle injury

But he's almost always a gametime decision. Nothing more frustrating than having Westbrook going at 3PM and the guy you would play if Westbrook is out at Noon.

i don't pay too much attention to official NFL injury reports. usually you can get a better indication from listening to clayton, mortenson, glazer than you can going off of "offical" reports required by each team by the league for gambling purposes

30 starts in the last 32 games is dependable to me, but i can understand why some people would wanttoavoid him

With the high pick required to draft him, i'd just assume take someone that gives me less head aches.
Now if I could trade cheap for him, I'd do it.

As long as you have Buckhalter on your bench like I do, losing Westbrook isn't too big of a deal.

I have him, but its the not knowing part + Westbrook my still play limited.

Yea. I'd rather Westbrook not play at all and just take my chances with Buckhalter, than Westbrook play but Buckhalter still get like 10 or 12 touches.
