Need to pick up a new rb due to injuries. Should I pick up sjax (who I dropped earlier this year), leshoure, or Kendall hunter (still gets carries, and in case injury prone frank gore goes down)

I've been complaining about him all year, but pick up both SJax and Leshoure. Why are they still on the waiver wire???

This. Hopefully the STL offense keeps improving and that will help SJax. I still have faith that Fisher will be fully committed to running the ball with him.

So who should I start along with mendenhall? Was gonna go bjge (he's been a huuuuge disappointment all season, but up against Cleveland), sjax (probably not against that Miami d) or Alex green (also a very tough Houston d)

I'm having the same dilemma a couple of threads down. My gut is telling me to start Green because he's going to break a big run or catch a underneath pass to score. My head though is telling me to go with SJax because he's going to get his carries and pick up 60-75 yards, catch a couple of passes for 20 or so yards. The key will be if he scores, which he hasn't all year.

Yeah but Miami has the best rush defense in the league so I'm thinking 60-75 yards might be a little much. And Cleveland's rush d is, we'll its like the saints

I understand. BJGE definitely has the better match up this week.

Start SJax.

Why is everyone so high on Alex Green? Green Bay RBs are no better than a low RB2.

Most of the ones asking are looking for a bye-week/injury RB2 or Flex play. Green is the starter on a fantastic offense, and has shown some explosiveness. I don't think any of us are looking for an "OMG 24 point week" from him. We're just weighing the risk of him breaking a long run for TD against the guaranteed 4-5pt suckage that SJax has been displaying this year.

Also, CJsucK had his biggest game of the year against Houston a couple of weeks ago.

I'd go BJGE. He's struggled so I think he will come out with something to prove and he plays Cleveland. SJax will struggle for 75 yards vs Miami and Green is in for a rough first start on the road at Houston.
