At the very least, he’s worth a bench stash.RB William Powell (Arizona)Percent owned (ESPN): 0.1%The Cardinals have lost Beanie Wells and Ryan Williams for the season in back-to-back weeks.

He was already the 3rd down back and they really like him as a receiver and a blocker and he had a great preseason as a runner to make the roster, leading the league with 249 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns on 42 carries. Look for him to lead a running back committee with change of pace back LaRod Stephens-Howling and former practice squad back Alfonso Smith.RB Alex Green (G...

Via The Saints Nation  |  October 09, 2012
