In a 12 team, 9 cat (w/ TO) H2H keeper league (three players cost the first three rounds of next year's draft), I need some help for my injury riddled team. I am in third place and injuries to some of my bigger guys have made me concerned about my depth. Here's my roster:

PG Chauncey Billups (Det - PG)
SG Juan Carlos Navarro (Mem - PG,SG)
G Jose Calderon (Tor - PG)
SF Richard Jefferson (NJ - SF)
PF Darko Milicic (Mem - PF,C)
F Caron Butler (Was - SF)
C Samuel Dalembert (Phi - C)
Util Joe Johnson (Atl - PG,SG)
Util Jordan Farmar (LAL - PG,SG)
Util Brendan Haywood (Was - C)
BN Kurt Thomas (Sea - PF,C)
BN Luol Deng (Chi - SG,SF) INJ
BN Devin Harris (Dal - PG) INJ
BN Kevin Garnett (Bos - SF,PF) INJ
BN Damon Stoudamire (SA - PG) NA [Just picked him up after he signed with Spurs today]

I was lucky enough to grab JCN and Milicic a week and a half back off waivers but as you can see, injuries have put me in a bind. I would think I need a forward/center to balance out my team until KG and/or Deng come back but I don't know when that will happen. I was thinking that Farmar's upside would give him a chance to play more with Gasol arriving at LA but that didn't happen today so I am think of dumping him for one of these forwards/centers available:

Andray Blatche (Was - SF,PF,C) getting more PT with Haywood struggling?
Royal Ivey (Mil - PG,SG,SF)
Joel Przybilla (Por - C)
Thaddeus Young (Phi - SF,PF)
Erick Dampier (Dal - C) waivers till Tuesday
Morris Peterson (NO - SG,SF) waivers till Monday

Here's some other guys that might be worth picking up if any of these guys aren't worth the time:

Travis Diener (Ind - PG,SG)
Anthony Johnson (Atl - PG)
Earl Watson (Sea - PG)
Jannero Pargo (NO - PG)
Earl Boykins (Cha - PG) waivers till Tuesday

Thanks guys.

Man, Postman, I don't like any of those guys on the WW. Maybe Thaddeus Young but I'd still want to see how Philly will use him before I'd pick him up.

If you need someone for this week, go with Young as he has 4 games. Otherwise, I say wait a week and see who is dropped.

I'm with SkinsFan and I would stand pat for this week. Nice job getting JCN, I wish I had done the same in a couple of leagues. I just think Farmar has more value than any of the ww guys and would give him some more time at this point.

Just putting the 3rd vote in on hold steady. Farmar is better than any of the guys you listed and as much you you might need to make a move I'd wait it out.

Scouring the WW and reading 'Working the Wire' at ESPN, I came up with some other names and people who've been dumped to waivers the past couple of days:

James Posey (Bos - SG,SF) been playing close to 30 min. since KG went down and KG is also out for the coming week.
Jamario Moon (Tor - SF) on waivers till Thurs.
Leon Powe (Bos - SF,PF) playing pretty decent since KG went down also.
Joakim Noah (Chi - PF,C) sounds like he'll be getting alot of minutes even with Joe Smith in the roster.
Carlos Arroyo (Orl - PG) probably will continue to start since they're winning.

Are any of these guys worth claiming for Farmar? I know it sounds like I desperately want to dump Farmar but I really don't. However with KG, Harris and Deng out for at least this week, I need to gauge who's worth getting now or keeping on speed dial. Thanks guys.
