Deciding between Latavius Murray, Andre Ellington and Alvin Kamara. #3 priority but the two ahead of me are pretty inactive on the waiver wire so will prob get my first choice, but not my 2nd. What order should I make these claims?

EDIT: .5 PPR league.

I'd say reverse the order you listed them and possibly not even waste your #3 on Murray.

Thanks. Only reason I included Murray is I think he is bound to get a heavier workload than the other two as far as snaps, but obviously he did not look good last game or last season for that matter.

If 'not looking good' is 788-12 with 33-264 in catches for 75% of a season then sign me up.

Thoughts on Packers RB situation i.e. is Aaron Jones worth a roster spot?

If you can't get Murray/Kamara/Ellington, then yes

Is Rawls worth a roster spot now? We have a $200 budget for WW pickups (have $135 left). What should I spend on him, if any?

Some reports are saying he will be starting over Lacy. All other SEA backs are owned in my league. Also, Aaron Jones and Murray are out there, but I'm passing on both, I think. I own Jamaal Williams (fingers crossed he can play or only misses one game) and I feel Murray won't do much with the Vikes offense.

How would you guys list these two priority orders for RBS:

Murray
McGuire
Gallman
Collins
A. Jones


Bernard
Gallman
McGuire
McKissic

I only need 1 from each. The first team I'm dropping vereen, the second team I'm dropping perkins.

Ty Mont may play, but for someone who hasn't played a full season as a RB, I don't see how he stays healthy the rest of the season.

Who should I be looking to get in place of Car? Watson/Goff/Simmon/loldalton, does it really matter? just stream probably week to week?

PPR league. Team:

Ty Montgomery
Thompson
Lynch
Stewart
Allen

Nelson
Cooks
Thielen
Watkins
Maclin
Sanu

Right now it is looking pretty rough for me at RB with Montgomery being iffy to play and Thompson having a bye week. Should I be content starting Stewart and Allen? Latavius and LeGarrette are both on waivers, as are Rawls, Richard, Ekeler, Kamara (though he has a bye..), Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams. Who should I be targeting and who should I be dropping here?

I guess my real question was, do I drop Burkhead for Rawls or McKissic? Rex is the only option I have to drop for a WW pick up

I'm definitely going with Watson because he's averaging 50 yards on the ground and has 2 rushing TDs as well. That helps boost his floor and, on top of that, he has more weapons around him than Goff in Hopkins, Ellington, Fuller, and Miller.

Pretty stuck on this decision with the #1 waiver as first place 4-0 team.

I only own 2 healthy backs as the first place team. Zeke and Gore, lol. Rest of the team is stacked filthy with Brady/Kelce/Nelson/Diggs. I can drop Lee or Paul Richardon or both easily now to stock the RB cupboard.

Murray, Aaron Jones, Gallman and McGuire all there.

My logic is there's a better than 50-50 shot I could get Gallman or McGuire for free. There's also a better than 50-50 shot they work out to be as useful as Murray. The only thing we're sure of with Murray is volume, and I guess as my RB3 for bye's that counts as a lot.

What you do in this spot? One thing swaying me is Murray and the Vikes have a nice soft matchup on the ground the week Zeke is on bye.

Have similar ponderances as fish and rafiki. My RBs are super rough in 12t standard. Ty, Ameer, Henry, Allen, Perkins, and Gio. Been stocking up hoping a couple would pan out. Rest of my team is fine with Brees(bye) AJG, Jordy, Ty Hill, Rudolph, Seattle, Prater...

Currently 4-0 and all these names mentioned are available. With the 5th waiver, not sure I want to blow it on people this week when others ahead of me may very well use it and there's plenty of season left for someone better (?) to pop up.

anybody bullish on Cam'ron Newton after this week? I'd been streaming Wentz most of the season but somebody dropped Newton last week.

I've got #5 waiver priority and thinking of burning it on either him or Watson. Watson has v.KC (eh) and v.CLE (nice) before a week 7 bye and then @SEA, which seems better than Cam in the very short-term, but I feel like Cam's ROS schedule is softer and he might be rounding into form.

(lolQBs of course)

I have the #2 pick , could use some RB help (Powell, Ingram, Crowell), but is Camerra or Murray worth it? Non-ppr , so maybe Murray?

I probably wouldn't waste my waiver on either. With Murray, Kamara, Jones, etc. all most likely being gone (assuming an active league) -- you should have top 2 waiver priority after this week.

1 (or both) will probably still be there after waivers clear and then you can add 1 for nothing.

Murray will probably get 15-20 touches next week. If he keeps sucking, they'll start reducing his role. If he's decent and can keep the job -- you've got a solid starter for the rest of the year.

Worth the risk, imo.

I feel Murray is definitely worth it. Solid offense and he should get 15-20 touches a game going forward (including goal line). Not sure what better situations there would be going forward - at least in my 12 team league most of the top handcuffs are gone, so I'm not seeing any RB situations where the potential injury replacement is going to be better than Murray.

decided on my dilemma. I'm using the #1 on Latavius. THEN since I've already burned it, I've put in for all the others I like too (and tossing some scraps). I know a lot of the others will be gunshy about using their waivers, so I expect to scoop 2 for the price of one here. Makes the choice a lot easier to stomach.

Thanks. I've got Murray as my top waiver priority but expecting somebody else will scoop him first. Normally I wouldn't sweat this but with Ryan and Brees on bye and Carr hurt I'm expecting the QB wire to be more competitive than usual. Plus, expecting the guy who originally dropped Cam to experience some remorse and try to re-add.

Certainly doesn't help that Cam is @DET this week who has been feasting on turnovers.
