Any advice on this problematic RB situation?

12 team, PPR, 2RB, No Flex, fairly competitive league

Jamaal Charles: hard not to start- but seems too early (and NYJets D)
Spencer Ware: been starting him- likely not this week
Gio Bernard: considering starting- but has Denver D
Matt Jones: drafted, but not played yet
Shane Vereen: just added- considering starting
Jerick McKinnon: just added- waiting on him


Any perspective?

Geez, I just realized I have a load of RBs.

Until Charles is back, I think Ware is a must-start every week, regardless of the opponent. They use him a lot in the passing game, I think he led KC in receiving yards and targets in week 1. It sounds like Charles won't play this week.

Gio is a solid start in PPR.

I wouldn't trust McKinnon just yet, especially against the Panthers. I heard it will be like a 65-35 split with him and Asiata.

Jones is going to be very hit and miss. Not sure what to make of him.

Vereen is solid in PPR, was surprised to see he got 14 carries last week.

If I were you and I could only start two, I'd probably go with Ware and Bernard, even though they both have tough matchups. I do the same, I usually have a ton of RB's on my team.

Thanks for the input.

I would be happy starting Ware if Charles is not back yet. He's done well for me the 1st two weeks. If Charles is being eased back into the starting role I'd probably go with a different RB, until his situation is stable. Sounds like Charles may be out 1 more week; if he is, Ware is my starter.
