Time to drop Dwyer?
Per rotoworld today (Source: Pittsburgh Tribune-Review):
"Running backs coach Kirby Wilson said Rashard Mendenhall (Achilles) will be the starter once healthy. Mendenhall is not expected to play in Monday's game against the Chiefs, but could be back for Week 11. Despite the impressive play of Jonathan Dwyer and Isaac Redman, it's clear that Mendenhall has the most talent in this backfield. "Rashard has always been our lead dog and our top runner," Wilson said. "Rashard is the complete package -- power, speed, explosiveness. He is the guy who can take a 10-yard run and make people miss and get 20 more." The Steelers will use a "hot hand" approach when all three backs are healthy, but Mendenhall will get the first crack."
Getting crowded at the RB position in Pittsburgh. I could drop him and pick up Dwayne Bowe who was just waived in my standard ESPN 12 team league. KC sucks but I think he's a decent Flex option. My team:
QB: Brees
RB: Martin, McGahee, Dwyer, Hunter, Daryl Richardson, Andre Brown, Beanie Wells
WR: Marshall, Decker, Torrey Smith, Titus Young
TE: Graham, Heath Miller
K: Tucker
D/ST: Steelers
