waiver pickups/free agents

CHENZ A! · 10-09-2014, 08:29 AM

A couple of interesting options on the waiver wire in one of my leagues. It's a 12 team league with a short bench (5 spots). Obviously in a 12 team league RB's are at a premium, but having so few bench spots with no IR spot makes it difficult to stash people.

Ryan Mathews, and Rashad Jennings are both available. Both are dealing with injuries, but should be back in a few weeks. Are either worth a roster spot in this scenario? Likely would drop Bishop Sankey, or Jordan Cameron. Thoughts?

What does your team look like?

I like Sankey's upside way more than Matthews' or Jennings'.

Even more so if their replacements (Oliver and Williams) play well.

Jennings was really playing well before his injury. He's pretty fragile though.

Why are you carrying Gordon if you have such a limited bench? He won't be back until week 12.

I feel like my team is strong enough to make the playoffs if I manage it right, and I like his potential to help me win in the playoffs. Dude is an elite talent.. maybe my thinking is wrong, and it's stupid to carry him.
