How about Lendale White and Deangelo Williams?
I think that they are both top 15-20 RB's if their teams do not add some competition in the draft or via free agency.
Great ones. Definitely fit the “monitor these guys” group. Could go up, could go down. I think Williams has some serious upside, but only if you can get him at bargain value, or if you already own him on the cheap. Counting on him is tough if the price is high. LenDale… don't trust him at all. Zero.
Wanna hear a good one?… Guy in my dynasty league traded LT for Williams and White… so there you go, he is obviously expecting these guys to perform.

Wow. I don't like that at all. Even if you believe in those rushers, the market demands five times that. Bring that guy over here so he can get some Xtremer's advice!

The trade calculator is ONLY designed for even player trades. It strickly works with a one for one, and while you can do a two for two and a three for three, you have to keep in mind that the calc is adding the two player overall scores together and the highest side wins. You can trick it, and that's why we recommend fantasy owners stick to a one for one or two for two.

ive posted my feeling about mr twinkie white on one of these posts before…these new charges dont improve my thinking…he's just not good to me…just my opinion…dwill has me in question though…i jumped on his ship last season only to watch him not really get a fair chance…now youd think with the release of foster its his time to shine…but you know what we have heard out of panther camp about it? nothing…no one has come out and said anything…no coaches have says its his to lose….he hasnt said he's been told its his job…in a steve smith interview he touched on it…he didnt bad talk dwill but didnt talk about him being the guy….maybe im being to critical and maybe he comes out and is the #1 guy im just a little skeptical that after two years they see him as the same thing as norwood in atlanta…nothing more…

DeAngelo will definitely be one to monitor. I definitely see them bringing in another RB to at least take some of the load off him. I just don't trust them giving it to him or they would have done it more in his first two years.
As for White…don't really trust him that much, but he was a surprise last year and Brown is now gone. Not much competition there unless you consider Henry.
Posted in the other forum on Harrison…I agree with X…I think he'll rebound.

How about SA? His value took a deep dive after the Seahawks signing of JJ and TJ Duckett. There's this rumor that no team would take SA and I just can't believe it's the end of the road for this 2005 MVP!… It was really unfortunate for him to be a victim of that Madden Curse. Speaking of the curse, i wonder who's gonna be in the cover this year.

Personally, I don't think SA is done. He played hurt all last year, and did not put up even semi-respectible numbers…true enough. Seattle were foolish to sign him to the contract that they did, for so much money. This year, he becomes a cap casualty. There are a couple of teams that will still be willing to pick him up…obviously not to be their featured back, but probably more of a RBBC situation. I could see a team such as DET or CIN taking a chance on him, and signing him to a one or two year contract. Don't get me wrong, I don't expect that he's going to put up 2005 type numbers again…those days are long gone, but I do think he'll be serviceable…a valid bye week replacement type. Just saying…

It's tough to say on this one. I think he has a shot at having another top 12ish season left in him, in just the right situation… but will he find that situation if cut? Or will he be placed in a RBBC environment, where he won't get a job all by himself?
What about Denver? Seems like a Shanny type of move!

Good point, Smitty. I could see Shanny picking him up and utilizing him…yes indeed.

SA was done. He was a guy who had an absolutely insane offensive line and an entire offense built around him. He produced and he fell to the Curse of 370
Stick a fork in him. He's more done than LJ.
