Should I have dropped Rueben Droughns and gotten Maurice Jones-Drew?
Tell me if I made a mistake.
Should I get Mark Clayton of the Baltimore Ravens and drop either Cory Dillon or Drew Bledsoe or Maurice Jones-Drew?
How's my team looking at this point?

1. You probably should have stuck with R Droughns b/c he is the starting RB (even if he is part of the Browns). Jones-Drew is great to have parked on your bench, but not someone you can count on for production every game due to his limited number of touches. It's not a big mistake, but definitely one where you traded steady, yet unspectacular, production for volatility.
2. Your WR's are deep enough that you really do not need to pick up Clayton. He went off Sunday with Boller throwing him the ball, but a good % of his yards and one of his TD's were based on a goofy play. You would never play Clayton instead of Burress, Evans, Jennings, Bryant or Stallworth; so this pickup would be wasted.
Assuming that you have a 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1K, 1D/ST league...
Your lineup is very, very good.
Keep McNabb and Bledsoe on your roster for sure - lock McNabb into your lineup except for his Week 9 bye. If McNabb gets hurt, you will be glad that Bledsoe is your #2 QB.
Your WR's are great. Burress, Evans and Stallworth (when he is healthy) are your best three. Jennings has great upside and Bryant is the best option in Cleveland, but second to your top three in general. You really do not need another WR.
Your TE is set with both Gates and Gonzo. Lock your kicker and D in place as well.
The only area for improvement would be with your RB's. Tomlinson is a must-play every week; so here is your chance to upgrade your #2 RB via trades. Possibly look at combining one of your top WRs, Gonzo and T. Jones and/or Dillon in a trade for a solid #2 upgrade.
KEY: Remember that it does not matter how great your bench is each week - only your starters score points. See if you can nab a Rudi Johnson, Frank Gore, Willie Parker or Chester Taylor by trading away some of your excess players. If this does not fly, try pulling Alexander away from some poor guy with the same trade group.

Stick with Droughns. He is a feature back. Jones-Drew is good, but he is a backup until Fragile Freddy goes down again. Atleast with Droughns you know you'll get 20-25 touches a game.
Your team looks very good, though it is hard to say without knowing the scoring in your league, how many teams etc. Your main weakness is that you lack a really good second running back. Thomas Jones is serviceable, but having another stud would be a really good pickup.

If your league awards points for individual return yardage, keep Jones-Drew. I dropped Droughns as well and have no regrets.
PS -- your league must be a bunch of losers for you to have ended up with such a stacked team!

Don't drop Dillon! Bledsoe should be dropped. Try picking up Alex Smith or Rex Grossman if they are available.

i might want to drop Henry for Kevin Jones. i comprehend that this is tempting to get Watson, and many persons will inform you to attempt this. notwithstanding, you would possibly want to be questioning lengthy time period. For something of the season, Kevin Jones will proceed to get 15-ish factors in holding with recreation. Chatman may be an outstanding %., yet apparently like he will percentage some incorporates and who's familiar with if he will be large on any such lame offense? Jones can run and capture the ball or perhaps at the same time as Detroit has to throw to degree a comeback, Jones will be in and generating. shop Roy Williams he might want to correctly be streaky yet he remains a might want to initiate in maximum leagues. also i might want to shop Brandon Marshall over those listed. the in difficulty-free words element that would want to problem me is the court docket date he has on Nov 21. If he's discovered accountable, he might want to be suspended for some video games. if it truly is the case, Muhammad and Curry both seem as if achievable ideas to interchange him.
