When will McGahee start?

[ttakmm]

With the problems in the running game, when does everyone think McGahee will be activated? Once activated when do you think he will start to contribute?

He still has 2 more weeks before he can play. We'll know after that.

Well the one offline league I'm in, one team has already drafted McGahee (see the thread "Who in the hell is drafting Sam Aiken" for details on the Draft Bills only round). That team has at running back, Priest Holmes/Jamal Lewis. (You can blame me for him getting that combo as I had the chance to draft Lewis but passed) He has Corey Dillon/Lamar Gordon as his backups. So unless Holmes/Lewis get hurt or a bye week hits, those two are a solid fixture in his starting lineup. Now we have a extra scoring position where you can start an extra WR/RB/TE so McGahee could be slotted in that spot.

McGahee will definiately be picked up in all Fantasy leagues. It all depends if you must start him right away. I would definiately take the chance if you are allowed to start more than two running backs a week (and your backups suck) like I mentioned above. (I've already picked him up in my one yahoo league with the extra scoring positions and will most likely start him right away. Can't do any worse than what I have slotted in that spot now.)
