There is no reason Jahvid Best should be on your bench from here on out.You couldn't have asked for much more out of Jahvid Best at home against the Philadelphia Eagles. At Soldier Field the week before, Best had a nice fantasy game with 2 touchdowns, but he had trouble otherwise, rushing 14 times for 20 yards and catching 5 passes for 16 yards. So when he broke out for 3 TDs and 232 total yards, it should have been more surprising, but Best is that type of player. He is a rookie and he is on a team with Shaun Hill at QB, so it's hard to expect RB1 numbers out of him each week, but with his ability to break one at any time and his pass catching skills, there is no reason he should be on your bench from here on out.

Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on how the season pans out, I focused my draft budget (auction format) on elite WRs knowing that I would be able to get Jahvid at a relatively cheap price. So far, it appears to be paying off as I am undefeated at this early point in the season and have been the highest scoring team for the first two weeks. My roster looks like:

QB: Tom Brady
RB: Jahvid Best
RB: Lesean Mcoy
WR: Andre Johnson
WR: Reggie Wayne
TE: Marcedes Lewis
DEF: Patriots
K: Joe Nedney


Additionally, I have Marshawn on my bench in hopes that he will be traded. Jahvid and Mcoy are in similar situations in that they are their team's only real RB option. On top of that, they are legit receiving options out of the backfield.

I play in a league with too many cal/pac-10 fans. Jahvid went off the board with the sixth pick in the third round (#22 overall). I was thinking he would drop much more than that - I was looking to get him late in the 4th (my pick) since I valued him higher than the projections did. If my league had a bunch of guys from SEC country he likely would have fallen; according to yahoo his ADP was 47.2.

I'm surprised you were able to get Johnson and Wayne - those are both clear WR1's.
