BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: No matter how many times a player has a huge performance out of nowhere and then follows it up with a dud, it's difficult to bench him. But that's what you should do with Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker. The New Orleans Saints defense he dominated looks like it's given up.

Oh, and Bucs head coach Todd Bowles, who's known for his candidness in discussing player usage, wants to make it a three-way committee. Tucker is a fine stash, but an ugly three-headed monster isn't the best way to get fantasy production. Leave him on the bench for now.
