Is it time to finally bench Ray Rice?

I have been holding off because I'm not the type of guy to be so easily swayed into throwing my top fantasy draft picks onto my bench while they're healthy.

However, I am incredibly frustrated at this point, as I'm sure all Ray Rice owners are at this point.

It's a 14 team league, and here's my team:

(Roddy White, CJ and Ray Rice have been my big disappointments, I had Reggie Wayne as well.

QB- Andrew Luck

WR-Denarious Moore

WR-Desean Jackson

WR-Alshon Jeffrey

RB-Ray Rice

RB-Chris Johnson

TE-Martellus Bennett (I had Jmike Finley)

FLEX-Pierre Thomas

Bench players:

Jarrett Boykin

Roddy White

Shonne Greene

Jonathan Stewart

So is it time to bench Ray Rice?

    Personally, if I were you, I would dig into the free agency pool and see if Zac Stacy, Chris Ivory, or Brian Leonard (TB) are available. But, I would move Thomas into your second running back slot and Boykin into the flex for now. I would never recommend benching Rice, unless the match up seems unfavorable. Against the Bears this upcoming week, I would continue to play him, though - they have a young linebacker corp and are banged up on defensive.

  • I'm not certain that he will run any better against The Bears than he did The Bengals. I would.
