Anthony Dixon, RB, Buffalo Bills

As I've said many times before, the Bills have misused their running backs terribly this season. CJ Spiller is supposed to be the change-of-pace gamebreaker, Fred Jackson the lunchpail rock-toter. Instead they've switched the roles and now both are out for at least a month. What now?

Well, it's somewhat up in the air with what will transpire between Anthony Dixon and Bryce Brown, but for my money the safer play is with the player who actually suited up in Week 7 - although it's true that Bryce Brown is likely the more talented back.

If your goal is safety in the next week, go Dixon.
