Fast Willie is starting, Walter is gimpy, Bradshaw is #2, Mason “may” put up decent numbers, Harvin is a question mark

So i say go with the starting RB in Parker

Bigt, I’d start Addai, he’s got some questions around him and Brown behind him but his upside is the biggest on your bench

You gotta go with FWP. He’s slated to get the goal line carries now as well.

I’m gonna go with Derrick Mason, ESPECIALLY if your league is PPR. Ravens seem to be featuring the pass more and Mason is their clear #1 guy.

BigT - I’d go with Edwards…if the browns fall behind early [which they likely will] they’ll need to go to the air early and often leaving the door open for Braylon to step in and make some big plays.

I"m with Palma go FWP. It’s a bad matchup but Rbs are guaranteed to touch the football and maybe get you points. Wideouts are not. Big T roll Addai same reason.

You guys really think that Addai and FWP [facing the TEN D] have more UPSIDE than either of the other two? Kinda conservative thought process if you ask me…maybe more reliable not to get you 0 pts but I just don’t see FWP having a HUGE day vs TEN or Addai doing anything all year tbh…

Agreed it is conservative niether back has any upside but when compared to say Mason, I would rather start a rb2 or 3 over a WR2 or 3 in a flex.  I know the running back will get carries. I don’t know if Mason will catch a single pass.  Wideouts even the best can get shut out.
