Wondering who you guys think i should pick up with my FIRST waiver claim, given my roster below: Randall Cobb, Alfred Morris, or Patriots D/ST.

Starters
QB: Aaron Rodgers
RB: Jamaal Charles
RB: Steven Jackson
RB: BenJarvus Green-Ellis
WR: Demaryius Thomas
WR: Eric Decker
TE: Antonio Gates
DST: Bills (they KILLED me)
K: Garett Hartley

Bench
RB: Peyton Hillis
RB: Ben Tate
RB: Michael Bush
RB: Rashard Mendenhall
WR: Kendall Wright
WR: Justin Blackmon
WR: Darrius Heyward-Bey

This league setup is by far one of the worst I've ever seen. How many teams are in your league if you have 7 rbs on your roster??

Ten. My draft strategy was to load up on running backs with upside since only idiots draft backup quarterbacks and tight ends and wide receivers after the 4th round are all roughly comparable.

You loaded up on handcuffs and injured running backs.

I dunno, I think having a good backup QB is kind of important along with good trade bait.

What do you do in your bye week? Just roll with a scrub off the scrap heap?
