    Which RB should I keep/pick up?

    My league starts 2 running backs, and we are allowed to hold 3 total on our roster, so 1 guy on the bench. My current backs are McFadden, McCoy, and Ahmad Bradshaw. I'm scared to keep Bradshaw because of how good Andre Brown has looked, and they might start splitting carries. Should I keep Bradshaw or pick up one of these free agent backs:

    - Ryan Williams now that Beanie Wells is gone until week 12
    - Chris Johnson. I know he blows a chub, but he has that potential.
    - Shonn Green
    - Stevan Ridley even though he had been giving up more touches to Woodhead

    if chris johnson got dropped it should be reversed and put back on that guys team

    why would u not drop a wr or a te or a backup k, d,te or qb and pick him up

    all 4 of those guys should be on a roster, i call bull

    Not all fantasy football leagues are the same you retard. In my league you HAVE to have 3 qbs, 3 rbs, 3 wrs, 3 tes, 2 kickers, and 2 defenses. We start 2 of everything except kickers and defenses. With that said, you cannot drop a defense or kicker for a running back.

    Maybe it's just me, but I think I would take a chance and go for Ridley.

    If there is that much depth on the waiver wire you take a chance on the highest upside which is still CJ imo.

    The upside on Johnson would be too much for me to pass up.

    I think having a set amount of spots per position is A LOT better than being able to hold onto 6 running backs and have no other position on your bench. That's just stupid.

    Right, it is stupid. Just because you can do it doesn't make it smart....

    And your season will be over if you pick up chris johnson. Pick up Ridley.

    I unloaded Johnson and I would unload Bradshaw if I was you. He is nothing more than a 3rd and long back and Johnson is in a bad spot and will be a cancer to his team soon
