Week 4: Starting RB advice needed

[wvette609]

Big time money league - TD only scoring, start 3 RBs


Options:
-Forte
-Bush
-Mendenhall
-Thomas Jones
-Brandon Jackson

Jones and Bush(with McFadden out) are locks.

Who would you start as the 3rd? Either Mendenhall or Forte? Both will see the majority of carries and both are going up against top 5 run defenses statistically.

I'm leaning towards Mendenhall as the Bears offense is terrible.

Thoughts?

I would have a tough time sitting Forte. That man is huge and fast. He ripped up the bucs. He caught passes that hurt them the most.

Mindenhall is going to get waxed today and he fumbles. Ray Lewis and Co. are going to light his ass up today.

Why do you say Jones is a lock? I have him, but have him on my bench in favor of Graham and Slaton (since Jax is without their starting LB and S)

Should I be starting Jones?

Jones is playing well, when they go to him. They need to give him more carries.

Plus the Cards defense can be carved up.

We're still going back and forth. There are 4 of us who own the team right now the votes are...

Jones/Bush/Mendy
Jones/Bush/Forte
Jones/Bush/Forte

ok slick....you talked me into starting Jones. However, it is going to be a very rainy day in NJ...which I guess bodes well for RBs.
