Josh Freeman confirmed that Earnest Graham will handle the bulk of tailback duties with LeGarrette Blount (knee) not playing in Week 6. "You guys know Earnest has done everything for us," Freeman said. "Whether it's playing fullback, being the third-down back, and now this week he's going to get the majority of the reps, the majority of the carries. I mean, he's done it before ... he's a guy we know can get it done." Graham is averaging 4.82 YPC over the past two seasons, but it's a very small sample size (38 carries). He'll be more attractive in PPR than standard leagues this week.

I have blount picked up graham, but i also have ingram. Don`t know who to start?

Same problem here. I would say take the risk of graham. We all know if ingram doesnt carry on goal line, its a 3-4 point day for him. Graham has receiving capabilities.
