you are seriously degrading your RB position. If you've already got a 1st round playoff bye, then there's no way I do this. Playoff football is all about D and running the ball.

I think Brooks will probably struggle this week, but I keep your RBs if you're already in the playoffs.

Absolutely not! Tiki gets all purpose yards. Even when he doesnt score a TD, he will get you pts. I've had some offers for Tiki on my roster and I'm glad I turned them down.

i wouldnt do it. your shorting yourself on the RB position. if u need a QB is ur WW still open? i dont know when ur playoffs start but here's a few options if its avail to u.......

Garrard @ CLE wk 13, vs SF wk 15 & @ HOU wk 16 -- all pretty good matchups.

Brad Johnson @ DET wk 13, vs STL wk 14 -- both decent matchups.

Fitzpatrick vs PHI wk 15, vs SF wk 16 -- both decent matchups.

hope this helps. KC.

Well, you could use an upgrade at QB, and I don't think you would be shorting yourself at running back to the degree that everybody else thinks you will. THAT HAVING BEEN SAID, Hasselbeck is probably not the answer... He is NOT having a very good fantasy season even though he is an upgrade over Brooks, which, mind you, isn't saying much. So, I concur with the crowd... Don't do it.

How many RB's do you start?

I wouldn't do it if you start more thanm one (or can)[smiley=no.gif]. I would hjust switch between Carr and Brooks based on match-up.

Tks, guys.
Really...what was I thinkin'!!
No trade, going with what I got and doing a voodoo dance before each playoff sequence.

Just a little after-the-fact comment. Don't forget the change in weather conditions that start getting more important this time of year. That's another reason to hang on to Tiki.
