    Are ANY of these RB's worth getting on waivers?

    Keep in mind in our league it's 14 teams and we pay $5 for each transaction and rushing TDs are 7 points. Who I have right now is Murray, Trent Richardson, and Jacquizz Rodgers with Murray having a bye next week. List of notable waiver wire RB's are: Arian Foster (already put in a claim for him), James Starks, Montee Ball, Shonn Greene, Rashard Mendenhall.

    I heard that Denver is slowly reducing Moreno's carries and Ball will get more as the season progresses.. He may be worth a look I think as well.

    Lol that's what I was thinking, but what if all of his injuries overtake him and he doesn't play much the rest of the year.. then he doesn't look so stupid. Hopefully though I get him and he comes back next week good to go...

    I wouldn't bother picking anyone else besides Foster up. Starks is good, but with the majority of the carries going to Lacy, not worth wasting a roster spot / $5 on. Never going to be a starting back this year in my opinion.

    Pack have one of the easier running back schedules left for the season, and with Rodgers out for at least a few weeks, theyre going to want to establish the run. Lacy has done great thus far, but you want to keep him fresh for the playoffs I would think.

    I would say Marino Denver's offense will become almost completely all pass . He won't get a light touch is for the rest of the season

    Agree, I like what you currently have. I'd definitely go after Foster too.

    Richardson hasn't done anything the entire season as my #1 pick . Also, Murray has been good but those POS Cowboys never seem to give him the ball enough (last week franchise low in carries), so I'm looking elsewhere. I was able to pick up Foster off waivers, he's out this week vs Arizona, but I hope he can come back soon.

    Foster is done, Starks is good and look and see if James for TB is available he is a good grab too.

    I wouldn't go after any of them. stay with what you have foster isn't playing again. Your line up is not bad so stick with it.

    Foster's uncertainty throws a curve ball into the plans here.

    I agree with what several others have said, stick with what you have.

    Good Luck to you!

    Do we pick up Dennis Johnson now ahead of Ball, Starks, and Greene? I don't see Tate staying healthy the rest of the year.

    How about Andre Brown ? He's probably gone too but if he isn't grab him. Maybe Donald Brown?

    Brian Leonard TB
    James just left game with ankle injury, maybe check James status later on (he is Q to return) or tomorrow.
    Keep in mind TB didn't admit that Martin was not gonna play again til last week so I wouldn't be shocked at mixed or little info given by the team if he(James) doesn't return.

    Well Mendenhall is now gone, but I ended up taking Dennis Johnson in the hopes that Ben Tate will get hurt again and be out for a few weeks. In reality, I'm just going to stay with Murray, Richardson, and Rodgers for now and only play Johnson if Tate gets seriously hurt. None of the backups available, I don't think will do any better than Rodgers so I'll just stick with him for now and play him next week when Murray is on the bye.

    Rainey looked good tonight, James has a broken ankle and I like Rainey better than Brian Leonard.

    I thought Raini looks good also. I would pick him up if I had to. There are better options out there though.

    Rainey did look okay yesterday, but you have to remember that Miami gives up the most fantasy points to RBs this season.
