Fantasy Blunders

Drop, add, claim off waivers...drop, add, claim off waivers. This is what every Fantasy Football owner has been doing for the last few weeks. Injuries and lack of production is keeping star players on benches or trading blocks within Fantasy Leagues.

St.Louis Rams stud RB Steven Jackson was on everybody's Big Board on draft day. Three games into the season he has yet to score a touchdown and only has one game with over a hundred yards rushing. Now in that same game he partially tore his left groin and might be out a couple of weeks...Cut'em or Bench'em...Cut'em, groin injuries linger around and the Rams don't have a offensive line.

Flashy, fast, and gifted are words you can associate with Saints star RB Reggie Bush. But Mr. Bush isn't living up to those words. He has 80 total rushing yards in three games and lost 2 fumbles. Yea has a couple of TD's but no enough for a fantasy impact...Cut'em or Bench'em...Neither. Deuce McAllister is out for the season and the Saints are bad. So, Start Reggie and hope for the best.

Steelers WR Hines Ward is usually a sure bet on the gridiron and in Fantasy Football. Nine catches for 108 yards and one touchdown. Sounds like a good game for Hines...but that is his totals after three games. The Steelers have went back to their old ways and are running the ball which is hurting Hines Ward fantasy owners...Cut'em or Bench'em...Bench'em for now because of a sprained right knee that could keep him out for a week or so...Plus Big Ben has to throw the ball to somebody.
