    Anyone have an ideas on sleepers? Kenton Keith is available and will be valuable if Indy locks up a playoff spot early. Anyone else?

    ^ No, Yes, Yes...I'm not sold on Hightower yet and Thomas will lose carries when McCall comes back. I wanted depth in the long haul, the only thing that stinks is that Denver was using Pittman on the goal line.

    Chester Taylor
    Jerious Norwood
    Sammy Morris
    Felix Jones

    All backups that get serious carries and may be available.

    Have it your way but I'm on the Hightower bandwagon. It's just a matter of time before the Cards accept that Edge is done.

    These are my backs:

    Portis, Clinton RB WAS
    Young, Selvin RB DEN
    Betts, Ladell RB WAS
    Rice, Ray RB BAL
    Stewart, Jonathan RB CAR
    Williams, Ricky RB MIA


    Who do I let go to make some more room on my bench?
    Any ideas on who I should pick up (All this week's waiver heroes are gone already)?

    standard scoring...no ppr

    I'm looking to add RB depth. In what is likely an early over reaction to week 1, Chris Perry & Rashard Mendenhall were both waived in my league. Which one is the better pick up?

    Derrick Ward, Michael Pittman & La'Ron McClain are also available, although I'm not sure any of them will be consistent producers.

    Steve Slaton. Starting for Houston this week and is probably their best option going forward.

    Perry is the better bet. He is a starter while Mendenhall looks like he will be behind FWP for a while now.

    If you absolutely need to drop any of those guys, it should be Betts.

    Agreed, and you should definitely pass on those other guys you named.
