i need to start one but could start 2 with one at the RB and the other at the flex.




Ridley
Bradshaw
Choice

I picked up Choice this week but now they dont know if he will start since Jackson might be coming back. And how many carries will Bradshaw get? or will he get hurt again?

I'd probably go Ridley ,Bradshaw coming back from injury so who knows how many touches he'll get.And with Jackson same thing.Either way tough decisions.

Check the injury report, if Spiller and Jackson are out then I would go with Choice. If either is playing then my choice, no pun intended, would be Ridley.
I think Bradshaw rushed himself back and it's my opinion is he will hurt his fragile ass again this week sometime during the first half.

had an interesting Week 3 performance against the Ravens, gaining just 37 yards on 13 carries after rushing for a combined 196 yards over the first two weeks. He also failed to record a catch, as he had five receptions in his previous two games.

Fantasy Analysis

Ridley's absence was explained in an ESPNBoston.com article that pointed out Danny Woodhead is the back the Patriots prefer in the three-wideout/spread offense. Since they went to that formation often against the Ravens, Ridley was relegated to a complementary role. This has a good news/bad news dichotomy to it: the good news is that Ridley hasn't been benched or fallen out of favor--he just isn't the right man for the spread package. The bad news is that the Patriots could pull the spread offense at any given time, making Ridley a wildly unpredictable gambit for your Fantasy team. He can run for 125 yards or 37 yards, both on the whim of two offensive tinkerers who do what's right for real football, but remain frustratingly enigmatic for Fantasy football. Because of this, Ridley cannot be benched ("He can run for 100 yards!") but he probably shouldn't be slotted in as anything higher than a flex ("He might only get 30 yards on 11 carries!"). And don't even try to explore the old box scores for any help here, as the Patriots have thrown several running backs -- all in the same game -- at the Bills over the last three seasons, with insanely varied results, including two games where Woodhead/Kevin Faulk (essentially the same role) figured prominently and four where they took a back seat. The best course of action here is to start Ridley at flex and hope that the spread offense is tossed to the side in Week 4 against the Bills.
