Keep a eye on D.Brown's status tomorrow. He has been downgraded to QUESTIONABLE. Not a good match-up either. Dolphins have a brick wall against the run. But I'm sure the RB pickings are thin. They are in my league.
Donald Brown - RB - Colts
Donald Brown (knee) has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Brown was previously listed as probable after returning to a full practice Friday, but team doctors reportedly found swelling in his knee. His Week 9 status is now in doubt. Brown will be re-evaluated Sunday as a game-time decision. Even if active, he would be used in a committee role with Vick Ballard.

just put in claim for Redman from PITComment -
Ballard is gone, literally no other RB projected to score more than 2 points in our league out there. Thinking of starting Redman either way....Comment -
Redman will get most of the workload Sunday, he is a good play if u are hurting at RB. He will get touchesComment -
If really desperate I would look at D.Thomas out of Miami. 15 touches last week and found the end zone and going against the colts.
Not the best for PPR and Bush is clearly the guy in Mia but they have been giving him goal line carries. Bush keeps getting dinged up and comes in and out of the game. Miami might run all over the colts and I would rather a chance for a TD and a good match up than a timeshare so-so back in a bad match up.Comment -
1 or 2 would be much better.
Darren Sproles | NO
(November 4, 2012 10:50 AM EST)
ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that Darren Sproles (broken hand) could miss just 1-2 games.
We've now seen reports ranging from 1-2 weeks to up to 8 weeks for a Sproles absence. Mortensen also notes that Willis McGahee suffered the same injury late last season, and he missed just one game. Either way, we expect a multi-game absence, but it should be on the very light side. A Week 10 return against the Falcons isn't out of the realm of possibility. The only thing that is certain is that Sproles isn't playing on Monday night against the Eagles.

Man, I'm hoping that Sproles is only out for a week or two. Really thin with him out.Comment -
Only thing is Sproles uses his hands alot more than other backs. I'd be thrilled if he can back week 11Comment -
Sproles practicing again.
Darren Sproles - RB - Saints
Darren Sproles (hand) returned to Saints practice Wednesday, getting in a limited session.
Although Sproles was officially limited, interim coach Joe Vitt says he "was full-go in shells and looked good." Barring a setback, Sproles should be ready to roll against the Raiders, and end up missing just two games. His return will further muddy a Saints backfield that grew cloudier with Chris Ivory and Mark Ingram's Week 10 breakouts, though Sproles will remain an RB2 in PPR leagues and flex option in standard formats. How things shake out between New Orleans' trio of power backs in Ingram, Ivory and Pierre Thomas is the million dollar question.

Looks like Sproles will be back this week. I'm curious what New Orleans will do with all those running backs. Ingram has ran well lately and Ivory running hard.Comment -
The guy who drafted Sproles dropped him when all the early reports said he was going to be out for a while. He's got to be kicking himself.Comment -
He is the "clown" of our league. Don't even know why he plays. He knows a decent amount of football, but every year he does something completely stupid. He was in last place at the time, so I think he was thinking that he had to add someone right away to try to make playoffs.Comment -
Sproles would be huge for me if he does come back. it seems I have Sproles and McFadden on the same team in a lot of leagues so my RBs have been hurting.Comment -
NFL insider Jay Glazer reported on FOX's pregame show Sunday that Darren Sproles (hand) will not play at Oakland in Week 11.
Glazer called it "late breaking scoop" as it goes against previous reports from ESPN and CBS Sports. Sproles practiced all week, but the Saints want to give him one more week before he's ready to take full contact on his hand. Mark Ingram and Chris Ivory have been leading New Orleans' revamped ground attack averaging roughly 150 yards per game over the past two weeks. Both are RB2/flex options for Week 11. Pierre Thomas isn't quite as attractive as his role has diminished of late.
