Answer 1

Of those guys I'm going to take Kenny Watson from Cincinnati because he's been a terrific replacement for Rudi Johnson and I think he's success will continue with Johnson doubtful again. Next I'll take Cedric Benson another starter who will see a ton of carriers against a Detroit defense that is allowing a ton of points. Lastly, I'll take Najeh Davenport. Although he's the backup to Willie Parker, he's still getting at least 50 all purpose yards a game and he's getting plenty of touchdowns in short yardage situations. I'll take Watson, Benson, and Davenport because they are so much more consistent that the other three. Jesse Chatman would be my fourth pick, but we haven't seen him play a starting defense. He did well against the Patriots, but he did his damage after the Patriots had already broken open the lead so I still question him. Fifth is Faulk from the Patriots but that's because they score so many points each week, otherwise I wouldn't touch him because he's #2. Lastly, Chris Henry avoid him because if Chris Brown plays Henry is the third string running back, don't bother with Henry. Stick with Watson, Benson, and Davenport they are much more consistent.

Answer 2

all of these answers work if your league is awarded points per carry. chatman (nyg giving up 97.4 yds/game and 6 tds.) he is out to prove himself and is effective reciever out of backfield. benson (although not performing as well) should have a decent game against the lions who are giving up 116 yards/game on the ground and 7 rushing tds on the year. look for him to get it going with greise's ability to stretch the field. I also like watson to perform well against pitt. like benson, he may have a tough day but should benefit from palmer's ability to stretch the field. he is also a good recieving back which in a ppr league would help as well. all three backs should get at least 20 touches and 1 td. the only other option would be davenport, be he is not a lock to get carries. if you pick davenport, i would sit watson. the bengals are giving up a lot of yards on the ground (133/game) but only 4 tds on the ground. my picks would be benson, chatman, and watson.
