FF: Lost Charles Have #1 Waiver Charcandrick West or Knile?

Mr. Nickels : 10/13/2015 1:12 pm
Who is the new KC starter is it now West and NOT K Davis?? Should I put a claim in for both?
I am in the minority it seems  
djm : 10/13/2015 1:16 pm : link
but I still like Knile Davis. From what I have read he's somewhat in the doghouse but he pretty good last year when filling in for Charles. West only received 5 carries two weeks back but got no carries in the first few weeks. This past game he got 7 carries.

I have to put faith in Davis and assume he's gonna do the right things to appease the coaching staff, if that's even needed. At the very least you're talking about two RBs set to split carries. I am gonna ride with the back that actually produced some good numbers when he was given a chance, in 2014. And that guy is Davis.

all reports say West  
UConn4523 : 10/13/2015 1:17 pm : link
similar skillset to Charles so the offense doesn't need to change. I'm finally using my #1 waiver on him. Could be this years CJ Anderson (i'm hoping).
Davis has a career 3.4 yard average  
UConn4523 : 10/13/2015 1:19 pm : link
3.5 filling in for Charles last year. That's very poor for a team that wants to run first and pass second. I'd be shocked if West doesn't see the better end of the split.
rumor has it  
RAIN : 10/13/2015 1:20 pm : link
they are going to split. Knile is the known commodity, but I don't think he had the greatest off-season.

Davis only produced when he was getting all the touches. He's strictly a volumne player who at best will get half the touches. Give me West all day long over Davis.
could be right

West is just such an unknown. I guess we will see how it shakes out. I wish I didn't have to think about this...I own Charles in a keeper league..
In the same boat  
Joey from GlenCove : 10/13/2015 1:33 pm : link
put a waiver in on West. He will get the first crack.
Charles was at a 5.5 YPC  
UConn4523 : 10/13/2015 1:35 pm : link
the only way they can come close to that is if West's similar skillset pans out. He's going to get first crack, IMO. They don't want Smith throwing anymore than they have to and playing from behind isn't ideal for that offense.

If Davis plods along at 3.5 yards per clip, their entire offense has to change.
I went with West.  
Mike in Philly : 10/13/2015 1:40 pm : link
I'm in the middle of the pack as far as waiver order so, hopefully he falls to me.
It was nice when it  
Mr. Nickels : 10/13/2015 1:43 pm : link
was Knile as the no brainer and i actually had him but dropped him a couple weeks ago when West surpassed him on the depth chart.
Should i also

Yeah i rejected it, working on a deal to get Gronk and Edelman...
Anybody buying low on Marshawn Lynch?  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 10/13/2015 2:19 pm : link
Last place team has him, and thinking I can maybe trade Forsett something for him.
I have Lynch in my league and I would be happy to get Forsett and  
wgenesis123 : 10/13/2015 6:50 pm : link
someone else for him. I think until Seattle fixes their O-line, he won't do much. Since I have to start him this week I will be hoping I am wrong.
Why would you trade forsett for lynch?  
djm : 10/13/2015 7:43 pm : link
Forsett has now had two great games in a row. Everyone keep writing off this guy at your own peril. He's a good lead back. Period.
I had a guy in my league  
pjcas18 : 10/13/2015 7:47 pm : link
reject a trade I proposed and replied with "Congratulations, that might be the most insulting trade offer I have ever received...."

LOL, obviously I'm going to propose a trade in my best interest, I guess I went overboard.

Ankle sprain is all. i have forsett, ivory and Lewis in a PPR, alll kind of the same.
I have top waiver  
Fish : 10/13/2015 10:13 pm : link
And can pick up west or vereen. I would either drop hillman or Christine Michael.

Non ppr

The unknown is west. All of a sudden the fantasy world welcomes him in with open arms and we are supposed to bite? Hate to lose my spot for an unknown
