Someone in my league just dropped Fred Jackson. Should I pick him up as a handcuff to C.J. Spiller? I would drop Isaiah Pead or Mikel LaShoure off my bench.

I am not a fan of Pead or LeShoure so I am not going to give you a perfect answer to this question. I have a feeling there is someone better than anyone you mentioned available. I don't like handcuffing in general. Jackson provides no value unless Spiller gets hurt. I am sure there are people on the waivers who have value if they just perform well. I would feel like Pead might even fall in this category because he might get a chance if he shows skills better than Richardson.

I agree. I did this last year, and then once you see FJAX get one touchdown you will be tempted to play him next to Spiller. Don't do it. Go get a high upside WR or something else to stash

You shouldn't have Leshoure in the first place. Joique Bell is the clear #2 in Detroit, so Leshoure is just wasting space on your bench.

i would do it, especially because you never know about spiller, hes a beast for sure but injuries happen.
