Dude's highest rushing yards total in three games is 30. I can't deal with that at all. He's running more like Reggie Bush than himself this year.

Daniel Thomas is available at RB; should I pick him up or should I try to pawn DeAngelo off on someone? Selling him will be hard in a savvy league of SEC football fans where most everyone has witnessed how bad he is while watching Panthers games to see Cam Newton play.



Edit:

Here's the team:

12 team Yahoo! Keeper league with IDP. Keep 3 players for a max of 3 consecutive years, keeping one round higher than drafted each year.


QB - Tony Romo
QB - Ryan Fitzpatrick
WR - Roddy White
WR - Larry Fitzgerald
WR - Miles Austin
RB - Jahvid Best
RB - Ryan Matthews
TE - Vernon Davis
W/R - Beanie Wells
W/R - Brandon Jacobs
Bench WR - Devery Henderson, Lance Moore, Sidney Rice
Bench RB - Carnell Williams, DeAngelo Williams
Bench QB - Alex Smith

K - Rob Bironas

DEF - New York Giants

DB - Kerry Rhodes
DL - Trent Cole
LB - Ray Lewis

I don't think it will be possible to start D Willy or Stewart unless one of them gets hurt. I own them both in one league and am sorta hoping that happens at some point. Does that make me a bad person? Normally i'd say try to trade him, but in this situation i'd pick up Thomas before it's too late.

I've got the two of them (along with Cam Newton and Steve Smith...) on the same team in one league, too, so don't feel bad!

And yeah, that's what I was thinking, too... Plus, I doubt anyone adds him considering how bad he's been. 2.3 YPC is terrible. Charles Barkley thinks it's turrrrble.

Ignore the lack of pitchers listed. I run with all closers, and it is constantly changing all year. It is a standard Espn 10 team.

I'd prolly hang onto him as a bench guy over Devery Henderson or Caddy. He has been awful but has more upside than those two.

Keep DWill over Caddy. Drop Caddy for Thomas! Thomas is a must pick-up in nearly all formats.

Yeah, I ultimately made a few trade offers involving DeAngelo and dropped Caddy for Thomas. As an Auburn fan, that was hard to do, but I made it happen. Caddy hasn't exactly been spectacular in the NFL...
If DeAngelo can't step things up and nobody accepts my trade offers, he'll be next.
