PPR league. I have 3 other starter RBs.
Drop for Kenny Watson? Kevin Faulk?

scan the waiver wire fo rMichael Bennet and Priest Holmes...
Reports indicate a possible comeback, but try to wait till the last minute to see if Holmes gets practices in.
otherwise get Faulk but as a last resort, because Maroney is close to coming back.

I don't know about picking up Kenny Watson or Kevin Faulk, but I would drop Sammy Morris. He's injured and reports indicate he'll miss up to a month.

Drop Morris who is out for up to a month. Pick up Faulk because he will get the load against a bad Miami D. I'm betting on Fauld to have 100+ total yards with at least 1 TD.

As already stated Morris will be out for approximating a month, I'd drop him but keep him on my watch list and depending on how Maroney is looking possibly pick him back up later. As far as a replacement, you gave us two possibilities Faulk is the one week grab, he is playing against Miami who is 31st in Rush D this year so expect some good numbers. Or Kenny Watson, we know that Watson started week 6 over Rudi who played but left late in the game due to his hamstring, however Rudi is expected to start (according to current information) this week, and looking over Rudi's career he's never injured. So unless something drastic happens I'd say Watson is a worse pick than Faulk.
I'd start checking this week's sleeper columns for a good pick up, some possibilities for later down the road could be DeAngelo Williams, Selvin Young, Ladell Betts, look for the #2 Running Back on NO now that Bush took over the #1 spot. Again none of these are for this week but in a couple weeks, I'd check FFTOOLBOX for their RB sleepers, or SI.com or CBS SPORTS for an immediate plug and play.

Of those you mentioned, Faulk is a good choice in a PPR league. He's always been best utilized in the passing game.
If you have three other starting RBs, you can afford to drop Morris, but with New England's bye coming up he could be back fairly soon.
The Boston Globe was reporting that he injured bones/tissue in his chest and clavicle. Early estimates place his return at one month.
I would grab Michael Bennett if he's an option.

Go to the waiver wire and see what's available, because Faulk may be a one-week max play. If you are really up against it, pick up Faulk and then keep looking to see who you can pick up for a multi-week play.
