Surely this is a mistake.... he is coming back isnt he?

Yes, I don't know how deep your league is but I hope you have waiver priority.

12 team.... I got Waiver pick 1.. ... surely this is a no-brainer

I got Turbin & Jennings on my roster... I'm in shock

He's going to be out for awhile. At least four weeks according to La Canfora. Worth the pickup, probably, but I wouldn't get too excited.

I personally think this is the end of Fred Jackson as a viable fantasy starter. CJ Spiller looks too good in his absence.

I would still pick him up no doubt. But don't expect 100 yards a game...

To be honest I just dropped him for Alfred Morris. He was my third running back behind Charles and McCoy (12 teamer) and we have really shallow benches. I know it's risky, but CJ Spiller is only going to get better in my opinion and the Bills coaching staff really didn't put an exact timetable on his return. And when he does come back, at best, he and Spiller split carries.

And I wouldn't get so excited about Spiller. He's serviceable, but it's easy to look good when a defense basically invites you to run on them.

Fred has a long time before possible playing time and when he comes back he might find Spiller had success and they share the backfield. If you have room for him and need RB help then hold him. But I would also be less excited.

Man..... I was really getting exited!!!!

This guy was awesome last year.... If he's out for 3-4 weeks surely he's an absolute steal

I would be all kinds of excited. Spiller isn't build like an every down back. I doubt he will be totally healthy by the time FJ comes back. FJ has huge upside and could be a monster late in the year when you really need him.

I'm a FJax owner w/o Spiller handcuff.

I'm holding onto him in a deep bench league, but I can understand if people drop him if your league has shallow benches.





It's entirely possible and maybe even likely FJax ends up on IR in 2-3 weeks w/ return designation, and you miss out on all the good waiver players.



But in 12 team... no way FJax belongs on waivers at the current moment. There shouldn't even be anyone good on waivers, unless you're picking up McCluster or stashing Mikel LeShoure.

Me too! Thanks for the info. Aarrgh! I was really counting on this guy in one of my leagues.

*Assuming* later in the season both are healthy....how do you see the carries being split?

50/50 at best. Might be a J charles / T Jones situation.
