What do you people think of bettis now that staley is out?

I'd lump him with CMart, L. Jordan, maybe slightly behind Westbrook

Stay away from Bettis... there's a reason he's never been a "great" fantasy player up until last year.

On a Steelers note though, I'd pick up Ward if you can get him at a decent pick. 3 years ago, Ward was #3 to Harrison and TO. 2 years ago, Ward was #2 to Harrison. Last year Ward fell off in Ben's first year (Ben favored Plax) but now that Plax is gone, Ward's going to get the load again. Also with the money the Steelers are gonna throw at him, expect him to become and even more focal point of the offense... and even some deep routes.
