I need to know of a good QB/RB/WR that I could pick-up, that would still be out there in a 12 team league?

Question

12 teams with a 12 man roster each. 2QB 2RB 2WR 1WR/T and 5WR/RB slots..... can anyone think of a guy that might still be out there?

Answer 1

That's tough, especially with the 2 QB's... it's going to be slim pickings,...

For QB - if you want one that's starting, maybe Charlie Frye, Alex Smith, or JP Losman. Possibly Kerry Collins/Billy Volek.

RB - good luck. there won't be any starters or potential starters out there at this point. Maybe Vernand Morency (Lundi is most likely gone) or one of the Jet trio (Barlow will be gone, but Houston and Blalock could steal a few yards). Musa Smith may get some carries in Baltimore.

WR - there's always a decent WR available. My choice is Greg Jennings from GB; but also look at Cedric Wilson (PIT) and Bryant Johnson (ARZ) as possibilities.

Answer 2

Wow, you are in deep league, and it will be tough to find starters.

Here are a few names that may have gone undrafted but who could contribute at some point:

WR Greg Jennings, Green Bay - Took over the #2 WR slot from Robert Ferguson. Green Bay will fall behind early and often.

RB Jerious Norwood, Atlanta - Poor man's Reggie Bush who has annihilated the preseason. Warrick Dunn is old, and has some groin issues. Norwood could see some spot duty, or take over at some point.

RB Brandon Jacobs, NY Giants - A touchdown vulture already, he will spell Tiki Barber a lot and could roll up some good numbers. Tiki is kind of in Tom Coughlin's dog house, if you believe the media.

QB? Good luck. Billy Volek will probably be traded, and will likely be a backup going forward. Aaron Brooks goes undrafted in a lot of leagues because he's a turnover nightmare. Still, he could find spot duty on your roster for the right matchup play.

If Deion Brach gets traded to the Jets, you might take a flyer on Chad Pennington...

Answer 3

Vince Young - will prove valuable later in the season.
J. Cutler - Look for Cutler to be the QB for the Broncos after a terrible outing by Plummer.
C. Pennington - If injuries can be avoided, he's a "nice" start.
Wally Lundy - RB Houston Texans. Will have an amazing rookie year with houston.
Cedric Benson - RB Chic. Bears.
D. Williams - RB Carolina Panthers. With Foster's luck of injury, Williams will have his shot.
RB - C. Bukhalter RB Phil. Eagles. With Westbrook questioning his lingering injury, bukhalter is ready to be productive.
Mark Clayton - WR Baltimor Ravens. With McNair the QB, he will be an explosive WR.
Troy Williamson - WR Minn. Vikings. He is slated to be the best receiver on the Minn. receiving core.

Good luck

Answer 4

QB- Matthew Stafford (to boot each and all of the grievance, this guy is a shown soccer participant that would play the game nicely, different than for sanchez who has basically performed one season) RB- (not the terrific expertise at RB) identity bypass with a great thumper back like Chris Beanie Wells. WR- Michael Crabtree - The stats tell the story.

Answer 5

Billy Volek. He has sweet chemistry with WR Drew Bennett on the Titans. Another guy is Steve McNair.

Answer 6

You might want to take a chance on JP Losman (Buffalo) for a QB option. He should still be around. As far as running backs? Geez, try Mike Anderson (Baltimore) or TJ Duckett (Wash). I'm assuming you've already had your draft and are looking at the waiver wire?

Answer 7

look for steve mcnair he's a great qb and is doing great with the ravens. Now that him and his buddy derrick mason are back on the same team.

Answer 8

Look at your QB/WR tandems if you don't already have some. One touchdown will count for two...
