I desperately need a RB. Which one should I get off the wire, and why?

also Michael Robinson from S.F is available.

Morris is the best bet- he's Seattle's starter with Alexander out, but they play the Bears next, followed by a bye week. So you're not looking at much production until weeks 6-7 (and Alexander might be back by week 7) Still, teams have been able to gain yards on the ground vs the Bears, so far.. Ahman Green had 100 yards in week 1.
Robinson from SF is a good pickup, as the coach has stated he might get the short-yardage and goal-line carries. But Gore is still the main guy who'll get the lion's share of work.
Drew had a good game, but I don't understand the waiver frenzy over him. Taylor is healthy and the starter, he looks better now than he has in years, he's not in danger of losing his job. Only an injury will change that.
If you're a Taylor owner, then Drew is a smart insurance-policy addition to your roster. Otherwise, the other two guys look better to me...

Really depends on your need...Morris is short term...5 weeks at most. I don't care how much he does or how good he is...when he gets back he's on the bench. Jones-Drew will only play if Taylor gets hurt...which happens a lot! But, right now Taylor is healthy and Jones-Drew gets you squat.
Kid from SF might might might get the goal line carries...if you're banking on a goal line back it should be from a team that will get to the red zone a lot more than SF.

Morris...Definitely!!!!!!! He's a quality running back in a great system, and he'll get all the carries for the next 3 weeks for sure.

I took a chance on Drew. I guess I know next week if I was right.
