In my PPR, I'm considering starting him over:
Rice
Sproles
P.Thomas
Gerhart

Considering him strongly over CJ2K and Spiller in a PPR

It looks like Dodds dropped Todman in his rankings quite a bit.

I wonder why?

considering starting Todman over:
1) Bush/Bell (at RB): if Bush were healthy, this would never be a consideration...nor would it be if Bush were out...but a possible timeshare of Bush and Bell.
2) Andre Brown (at RB): tough Seattle D (although not as good on the road)...Eli's poor play...Hillis stealing TDs
3) Pierre Garcon (at flex): will Washington play better with Cousins at QB? not a PPR league, so TDs are important
4) Riley Cooper (at flex): great opportunity, but he's had good matchups recently and hasn't scored...RBs usually better at flex than WRs, especially not PPR

Debating him or Steve Smith and Darick Rogers in PPR. Leaving towards BENCHING Todman right now.
I don't see a lot of upside for a huge week just based on what MJD has done all year. He's been better lately, but that offensive line is ranked dead last in run blocking. I can just see a 14 carries for 38 yards 2 catches for 17 or something like that.

I would think more about that. DET has a top 3 run Def and Rice looks as if he is running like a kid in a snowsuit like in A Christmas Story.

In the last 4 weeks BUF has given up 15+ points each week in my scoring system and has surrendered 5 TDs.... wasn't K.Alonzo playing for the last 4 weeks? And this article says he's played every snap for the Bills so I'm not changing my mind even if he plays this week.
And specifically for the CJ2K option: on the year, ARI has only allowed four rushing TDs, allowed 100 yards rushing once, and only gave up 15+ points in my scoring system twice (M.Lynch and F.Gore). The tough matchup and the fact that he is apparently now splitting carries is enough for me to bench CJ2K.

i have to choose between Rainey , Todman, Obgayannana. non PPR. i am eliminating OBGYN because of Cleveland's lack of run game all year , his inability to show much this year in opportunities given, plus great chance they will be playing behind.
if you take out Rainey's 80 yarder last week, he's at 2.25 yards per carry last week. 2 weeks prior total he is under 3 yards per carry.
with Todman over 75% of carries (assumed) and the far better matchup, don't see it as much of a risk going with Todman over Rainey. big money league and i really don't think it's that much of a decision. i love the Rainey volume and have rolled with him last three weeks, but 95% sure making the change to Todman.

yeah i wouldnt do that

I second that.
Does this article where coach Bradley mentions Robinson splitting carries with Todman have any effect on whether you are still starting him?

Just about every starting RB in the league has a backup spell him for a handful of carries. That's all the article is saying.

20+ is a little generous. For that to happen the Jags would have to be playing with the lead for the better part of the game. I'm not worried about Denard as much as I'm worried about Ace Sanders. Wouldn't surprise me to see him catching passes out of the backfield.

i do own gio and todman. Theyre both on my bench this week for lacy and sjax. But if i had to start one it would be gio without question

need to choose three out of these choices-
Todman, Rainey, Joique Bell, Mendenhall, Pierre Garcon & Torry Smith .... with at least one of them being a WR

I picked Todman up to block my opponent who currently has joique and gerhart lined up... The more I think about it, the more I think of starting him in over bush - cant believe I'm saying that, but how can someone trust Reggie? If Reggie is a no go I have pitta so I don't take a zero.
Any mention of delone carter? Any chance he sees some action? If the jags run the ball 30x and pass 35-40x, how many of those snaps does Todman see? What if denard looks good? What if carter looks good? What if Todman fumbles, does he have a short leash?
Maybe I'm just over thinking this...

Robinson has 17 carries on the season. Not sure carter has any. Pretty sure they will want to see what todman can do. He was the main back in preseason when mjd sat and he's been number 2 all season.

My overthinking thoughts exactly
Todman major high risk high reward
And I have steady Freddy on bench if I go tod

throw in Sproles, J Bell along with Fred and they are my choice. All of the choices have something going for/against them.
Todman on a team heading the right direction vs a Buffalo team thats getting gashed by RBs.... but he is a backup so is he any good?
Sproles against a team thats even worse vs RBs but is he even a RB in that context? and is he even a part of the game plan at this point?
J Bell would be a great pick if I knew Bush was out but all things point to Bush playing. Monday night game screws me.
Fred was a good RB option when Spiller was injured but Spiller seems to be mostly back and he has layed a few eggs including last week. Still he is the goal line back?
My other RB is L Bell and I guess Im starting Toddman and hoping for the best.

If Shorts is inactive I'm thinking that hurts the Jags' offense and ability to run. - Just something to look our for in considering Todman.
**********
I'm dealing with FJax vs Todman in one league myself. Jax is 11th in FFPA to RBs on the season with 12 TDs allowed, while BUF is 20th with 8 TDs allowed. But over the last 5 games Jax is 31st with 2 TDs allowed while BUF is 6th with 6 TDs allowed.
Throw in the fact that Todman should be getting most of the carries while FJax has to split and only had 5 carries in the last game while also apparently having just a 1:2 or 2:3 split with Spiller and it seems like (to me, for me) Todman may be the better start.
