Does anyone really know what to expect from this guy? I burned a no 1. waiver spot on him, needing a top performer. Looks like he will get all the work, but without Flacco, is that necessarily a good thing?

What does the board think? RB1? RB2?

Justin Forsett out for year. He was clear #2. Steps into the lead role and will get a huge workload. Add in that Flacco is out with a new starting QB how can you not see this guy was the #1 waiver unless Rawls was available?

Hopefully he tears it up, I'm on the edge of playoffs and I'm playing him over Fat Eddie. Can't afford a dud this late in the year

Opportunity does not equal results. The Ravens weren't that great with Flacco, take him out and people can really key in on this guy. I've never seen him play before, just wondering what people expect from him.

They fed him the ball more than Forsett typically got.

He's actually been serviceable for us in real life, and I liked what I saw last game. Schaub may stink up the joint but I think Clausen may do an okay job with handling our offense. Same offense from CHI, probably going to be very simplistic, tons of funneling to Buck, Gilmore, Aiken.

If you're looking for 50-60 yards and a chance for TDs from each of those guys, you're in luck. All will benefit from playing time with our defense being brittle rice paper. They all contribute to the passing game as well. I like them all as high floor, low ceiling guys. Sigh... Why did it get even worse in the injury front for us from last year?!?!
