Frozenbeernuts 1,663 Posted August 31, 2013 What?! He looked the best out of the RBs. I have no clue what they are doing with that backfield now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,663 Posted August 31, 2013 I may be moving Bell back up my board in my keeper draft. It's in an hour or so. I had originally taken him off until the tenth or later, but maybe I will be targeting him a bit earlier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted August 31, 2013 Guessing Bell is doing well. Or Felix Jones is looking better/less fragile than normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigMilk 40 Posted August 31, 2013 Apparently Dwyer was fat and didn't practice very hard. But I agree, he looked the best out of the Pitt backs after Bell got hurt and this move is surprising. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted August 31, 2013 Apparently Dwyer was fat and didn't practice very hard. But I agree, he looked the best out of the Pitt backs after Bell got hurt and this move is surprising. Actually, Dwyer came to camp in the best shape he's been in. However, this backfield is a muddy mess until Bell gets back in a couple of weeks and should be avoided. I went back and looked at 16 team draft I was in, Dwyer was a late 6th round pick. Big time wasted pick now...but not by me thankfully! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roroco 75 Posted August 31, 2013 I don't get it. Maybe PITT can't see past his size, but he is clearly the best back outside of a healthy Bell. Dryer might be slow and prodding, but he gets you 3-5 yards with most touches. Redman is not the answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had originally taken him off until the tenth or later, but maybe I will be targeting him a bit earlier. He went in the ninth round. I was hoping to get him in the tenth which is where you can have your second keeper, 10th or later. Unless something catastrophic happens I am keeping Spiller again next year in the eighth. Would have loved to potentially pair him with Bell in the tenth. Fockers like to use their brain while drafting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pee-diddy 27 Posted September 1, 2013 A few questions about L. Bell: anyone care to speculate when he returns? Week ___ ? when he does return, assuming he's near 100%, is he a 3-down back? how many touches do you see him getting each game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
track 1 16 Posted September 1, 2013 i got him in the 12th round Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobSanders_33 127 Posted September 1, 2013 A few questions about L. Bell: anyone care to speculate when he returns? Week ___ ? when he does return, assuming he's near 100%, is he a 3-down back? how many touches do you see him getting each game? I took a flier on Bell in one of my leagues but don't have high hopes for him. I think he will miss the first 4 games. I wasn't that impressed with his running in college and foot sprains normally sap a players explosiveness when they return (see McFadden, Muarry, MJD). He was billed as a 3 down back. I'd expect him to get 15-19 total touches but don't know that he has the explosiveness to make much of it. I'd say pre-injury he was only slightly more talented than Dwyer.
