Dexter McCluster signed with the Chargers to replace Danny Woodhead's role. My team already lost Keenan Allen and Woodhead. Who should I be looking at to claim on waivers?
How would you rank these options PPR league:

Kenyan Drake, Whittaker, Dwayne Washington, McCluster

don't know what your talking about, but Woodhead is 3 years and 8 months older than Dexter.

So 3 years ago in 2013, Woodhead landed in SD and posted career highs of 106 carries and 76 catches from previous highs of 97 rushes(2010) and 40 catches(2012).

Dexter's previous highs are 114 carries(2011) and 53 in (2013)....(55 @ a 4.5 avg and 31 catches last year in 11 games)


Sure he suffered on two horrible Tenessee teams, but now he's somewhere that utilizes smaller stature guys with heart and a able-bodied QB who loves the PPR back. He knows the division and the coach, I can see him making a contribution soon.

They tried for two years to make Donald Brown relevant, why don't you think that Dex has a shot at flex production?

Why is everyone higher on Washington than Drake this week? Is Washington that much of a beast that I just don't know about? Seems like Washington has a much tougher matchup and sharing carries with a proven back while Drake has a much easier matchup, more likely to be playing with a lead and will be sharing carries with Ajayi who has looked like garbage and doesn't seem to have much trust from the coaching staff. Drake is also projected to have like 2.5 times more points than Washington also.


Nevermiind. Abdullah just got put on IR. Just picked up Washington.

Newly-signed Chargers RB Dexter McCluster is expected to be active for Week 3 against the Colts.
McCluster only signed two days ago, but he has long been well versed in OC Ken Whisenhunt's system after spending the last two years under Whisenhunt in Tennessee. "For the most part, I pretty much got it down already," McCluster said. Per the San Diego Union-Tribune, "there is faith at Chargers Park" that McCluster can "soften the blow" following Danny Woodhead's ACL tear. McCluster has a chance to become a PPR factor within a few weeks.
