Default week 6 waiver wire pick-ups

Ok, I'm looking for a back-up runningback to replace C. Perry (CIN) although I hear Rudi Johnson may be a little banged up, so Perry could see more carrys.

Anyways, available on the waiver wire is A. Smith (NO) who will start now that D. Mccallister is out the rest of the season.

Also available is T. Thompson (DAL) who got 20 carrys for 75 yards last game agianst Philly. Only problem is he is splitting time with J. Jones because Parcells wants to give J. Jones a breather.

Which would you choose and why?

Antowain Smith would be my choice. Being the starter with a quarterback like Brooks, he'll see lots of carries. Julius Jones is a good, but streaky back, if he has a good game, the other guy won't see any carries.

ok, waiver completed thanks guys. Now the burning question...

I'm going to start Warrick Dunn so for my second RB i've got M. Moore (MIN) or A. Smith (NO).

Which one should I play?

I'd run with Antowain Smith, you know N.O. is going to run the ball. You never know which Minnesota team is gonna show up, the could have to pass the ball from the first quarter forward, or they could dominate early and have the runner put up good numbers. I'd take the lower risk and go with Smith.

/agree again.

NO is gonna run. The vikes are still living in the "Culpepper is God and will eventually come through if we let him throw every down" type of world.
