Default Week 11.... FF advice needed, plus general question

So Ronnie Brown is out for the year. I have Ricky Williams who has performed nearly as well as Brown, so he moves into a starting RB role, but I had Ricky starting as my flex player most weeks.

Now I need to slip someone into the flex spot.... Any ideas for this week (and beyond)?

These are my options that I have on my roster.

Jonathan Stewart vs. Miami
Marion Barber vs. Washington
Chris Chambers vs. Pit
Andre Caldwell vs. Oakland
Malcom Floyd vs. Denver
Todd Heap vs. Indy
Lex Hilliard vs. Carolina
Darren McFadden vs. Cincinnati

It is a PPR league....

I can scour the waiver wire a bit and these are probably the best options.

Kevin Faulk - RB
Sammy Morris - RB
Mewelde Moore - RB
Leonard Weaver - RB/FB
Brandon Gibson - WR
Earl Bennett - WR
Mark Clayton - WR
Davone Bess/Greg Camarilla - WR

Thoughts for this week and beyond?

I think if Stewart plays tonight you have to start him.

If not I would probably give Barber 1 more chance against the Redskins. The Washington pass D is best in the league while their rush D is towards the bottom.

Any chance Justin Forsett RB SEA is still available on the WW?

Thanks... I tried to get Forsett, but I was outbid on the FA bidding system we use....

I'm thinking of trying to trade Stewart or Barber in a package for a slightly better RB or WR that I would feel more comfortable using in the flex spot week-in, week-out. Trade deadline is coming up though.

I like Chambers this week and MBIII. The Steelers secondary is not as good as last year against the pass and the Steelers should push KC into throwing all the time early. I think WASH is one game away from total meltdown. McFadden would be good if he started, got carries and did not get injured. You know - play football?!?
