My money league is a 12 team league with 2 RB slots and a flex slot that can be filled with an RB, WR or TE. That's a maximum of 3 RBs that can be started at any time. Nothing unusual there.
As I comb the waiver wire looking for an RB better than Ladell Betts (A 5th round pick! Grrr!) I realize that the following possibly barely usable RBs are already on somebody's roster:
- Priest Holmes, Kansas City
- Maurice Morris, Seattle
- Maurice Hicks, San Francisco
- Adimchinobe Echemandu, Houston (Ok, he's on my roster. How sick is that?)
- Kevin Faulk, New England
- Kenny Watson, Cincinnati
- Jason Wright, Cleveland
A few RBs are available in the league and these will be the guys that go in the first round of waivers. Unless you're in an RB-insane league like mine, these guys are only for fantasy owners that are feeling really lucky:
- Michael Robinson, San Francisco
- Musa Smith, Baltimore
- Kolby Smith, Kansas City
- Ovie Mughelli, Atlanta
