Tolbert will vulture some goal line carries once Matthews gets back, but that's it.

VERY good chance Mathews won't get the goal line carries healthy or not. Sproles will get 3rd downs. Mathews is probably comparable to a 3rd or 4th rounder when all is said and done.

He was that "next guy" you take when all the other options looked the same, IMO.

Last I heard Mathews could be out at least 2-4 weeks, so Tolbert is a great pickup for a few weeks. When Mathews goes down again you put him in again...

Tollbert went for 925 in my league..crazy...and i put in a bid of 200 for him and i thought that was too high

I want to see tape of Eddie Royal or Jabar Gaffney getting double covered.

Doesn't matter what round he's drafted in when he fumbles and gets hurt. It's all about winning games. He's overated imo. I'm guessing it will be a share situation with tolbert getting all goal line
