Benson is going to take over, BUT it was still a good move. Jones is worth way more than Arrington right now, regardless. Regarding Davis, I don't like his matchup this week @ Miami at all. What other options do you have? (And, by the way, I don't know what you mean when you say the "red cross freaks you out". What do you mean by the "red cross"?)

oh sorry - different leagues...when someone in our league is injured they have a red cross next to their name - mcallister is my other starter - davis is ?? w/ a neck injury...and i hate playing someone (especially him) w/ an injury...

Well, I actually drafted T. Jones in the 13th round, hahaha. He is my flex option player only. Unfortunately, I didn't have him in last week, but I still won regardless.

He is still gonna get his carries even when Benson starts in week 5 (Im assuming) so good call on the pick up. JJ is just not living up to his expectations, and quite frankly I don't think Shipp is gonna do much this year either.

I drafted Arrington in the fourth round and Thomas Jones in the tenth. It seems that my estimations were a bit off the mark. :-[

Anyway, Thomas Jones is doing very well. He is very talented and picked up a lot of yards last year, even when the team struggled. The Bears give the ball to Jones a ton. It is tough for me to believe that Benson will take all of those touches away. So far Jones is working well for the Bears. I don't think they will mess with this too much in the near future. Then again, I drafted Jones well after Arrington, so what do I know? ;)

Good call picking up Jones.
