Eventually, Bell is my 4th back if someone goes down or possible Flex play. I like the potential on the of my other bench players (Hank, Jeffrey, Brown) and will ultimately need a replacement spot when the bye rolls around for QB, D and TE (I am carrying only one of each).

I am pretty sure I should just hold Bell and lose one of Brown/Jeffrey/Hankerson if (a) something better comes along; or (b) I need the spot for a bye player. Don't think Bell is going to light anything up even when he does come back but it's looking like he will be the starter from day 1 on his return and starting backs are hard to come by.

Id hold on to Bell over M. Brown for sure. Bell should be their No 1, its all about getting the No 1 options in RB and WR positions for fantasy.
