I have the #1 waiver wire priority in my league. Do I use it to pick up a white RB on Cleveland? My RB's are Steven Jackson (who is ouchy) , Pierre Thomas, Beanie Wells and Johnathan Stewart.

I think they are going to give Hillis the rock more. I didnt think Harrison was that bad last year, but you gotta be impressed with what he did vs Baltimore.

i grabbed him last week, started him this week, and reaped immediate rewards. i think he is going to get the vast majority of carries from here on out, with little passing game in Cleveland and no real RB competition. he is going to be a weekly RB/Flex starter for me until i have a reason not to. I had never watched this guy run much, but he is quite a 1-man wrecking crew. Not sure how long a guy can keep up that running style, but im sure he is becoming a fan favorite.

I don't think I'm going to do it. The bye weeks are coming up and someone is bound to do something stupid and drop someone good (they always do). If Peyton Hillis is the reason I don't make the playoffs so be it.

yeah, i can see where hillis would be more of a stretch in a 10-teamer. but if he gets 15-20 carries a game, he could be a good guy to have around.

Bingo. Michael Crabtree was dropped. He's off to a slow start but he's still well worth a pickup. Bye bye Mr. Aromashodu.

I'm with you, Aromaofshitdu fucking sucks. Fuck him. I picked up Big Peyton Hillis and he has done will for me. Clayton as well and Tolbert will have one more start this weekend.

I should have picked up the white running back from Cleveland. One of many mistakes in what is probably my worst fantasy team ever.

Picked him up and dropped Jerome Harrison on September 27th. He's made up for the inconsistency of Matt Schaub. Might be the guy who keeps me in it this year. Well....him and Arian Foster.

Yeah I made two huge mistakes that may cost me a win this week...

1. Played Aromashodu over Bernard Berrian.

2. Did not play John Kuhn...

That's 25 points on my bench, and I'm down about 5 points tonight to my opponent with Heath Miller going tonight for me.....he has Farrior on the defense going for him. Just a bad season.

Peyton Hillis was that pickup that I made in almost all of my leagues that has paid off quite a bit. That and listening to the ESPN experts when they said Hakeem Nicks was the sleeper WR you wanted to target instead of Aromashdu. I dont think I spelled that right but who cares.

Got killed by this guy... The last three weeks I have ran into a buzzsaw in the form of McFadden, Blount and now Hillis.

i dont think anyone was calling nicks a sleeper in the draft this year. he was rated fairly high pre-draft. i cant imagine anyone taking aromashadu over nicks after the production nicks had last year in his limited play. nicks went round 5 in my 14 team draft this year.

i started hillis and foster this week, and practically had won my matchup by halftime of the noon games. hillis is a beast, until he breaks down from the abuse.
