Need help wth RB situation.

[red33]

1pt ppr

jamal charles
S. jackson
CJ Spiller
Sproles
J. Stewart

I can start up to 3. Should i think about trading sproles or charles or a number 1 WR? right now i got wayne, bowe, moore, amendola as my wrs.

The main reason I would keep Sproles is because he's a double threat....running and catching. He can catch a short pass and either have it be the same as a short run gain or run it down the field and make it into a big gain.

[red33]

should i think of trading anyone or keeping them all?

I would try and get rid of Sproles. In any given week, Pierre Thomas or Mark Ingram could get the bulk of the touches, and in my mind, he's a risk to start every week. If you could spin him for an upgrade at receiver, I would seriously consider it.

Dumping Sproles in a PPR league isnt too smart, unless you're gonna get major value in return. Those types of RBs are quite valuable in full PPR leagues.

IMO, Sproles doesn't get enough touches a game to consider.

Kuzzy is the only one making sense here. Sproles is a must start every week in a full ppr, and you'd be nuts to trade him.

You are loaded at RB and good enough at WR. I'd do nothing. You can win with those players.

As usual MFers are over analyzing in fantasy. Its very simple logic to keep a guy like Sproles in a PPR league. LOL @ these goofs and the "not enough touches" shit.. hes going to get more touches than the avg RB because he is a dual threat.

Yeah, you gotta know your scoring.

A lot of guys would rather have a "starting" RB (like, say, Marshawn Lynch) based on carries, forgetting that a guy like Lynch will be lucky to catch 20 passes all season. Sproles will rush for 500+ yards, catch 60-70 passes, add around 700-800 receiving yards, and score a lot of TD's. He's going to outscore a lot of "starting" RB's who dominate carries on their respective teams. He's a legit starter in any format, and a PPR monster.

It's about total yards, not rushing yards. And in a PPR, its actually better if your back gets his yards from his receiving because of the receptions.

Do this........you can never have too many RBS. Unless you lose your starting QB or WR then dont consider trading any as of now. Charles, Sproles, and Jackson.....and now Spiller is a #1 and great in PPR.

Your biggest problem will be who do I sit. Not a terrible problem. I rather have him on my bench and score 30 points then on the opposing team.

[leaffan]

Charles and Sproles alone is a sickning 1 2 combo with Jackson to fill in during weaker opponents.

I wouldn't do anything with that line and just your way to victory every week.

He just asked for opinions, and mine is to never carry someone who has to split touches with that many players. I got stuck with Sproles last year because of a draft mistake and I did fine with him, but sometimes when he wouldn't get many touches, it pissed me off to no end. He does have a lot of value either way.

Good lord stop posting advice.

I'm not the biggest Sproles fan, but in a ppr Thomas and Ingram are no threat to sproles weekly value.
If I were you red, I'd sit tight. Nothing wrong with rb depth.

[for surtain 22]

Btw, if you're dying to trade one of those backs, definitely trade SJax. You should be starting Spiller, Sproles, and Charles.

Edit: you are a little weak at wr. Wouldn't be a bad move to trade one of them if you can get a wr1

[whuteva]

trade stewart if you can swing for a wr upgrade. with tolbert a threat to steal catches and carries from him and deangelo in Charlotte, plus his relative injury prone-ness, see if you can swindle a decent wr.
