AVOID: Rock Cartwright, RB, Redskins

Share this Article

AVOID: Rock Cartwright, RB, Redskins -- With Clinton Portis hurt and Ladell Betts out for the season, Rock Cartwright may get the bulk of Washington's carries down the stretch. The opportunity to pick up a No. 1 back -- especially one with a 4.4 yard per carry average over his career -- this late in the season is not something to ignore. At the same time, this late in the season you have to be more mindful of a team's schedule.

Let's take a look at the rest of Washington's schedule:

Week 12: Washington @ Philadelphia

Week 13: New Orleans @ Washington

Week 14: Washington @ Oakland

Week 15: New York Giants @ Washington

Week 16: Dallas @ Washington

See why I say to avoid Rock Cartwright now? That schedule is brutal. In that it has the Redskins on it every week. And you should never, ever, ever, under any circumstances, have a member of the Redskins on your fantasy team. Ever. Ever ever. I mean, seriously. What were you thinking?
