I will pick up a backup when I need one. I'm a risk taker. lol. Thomas has a bye week in week 4, so if i dont have Davis at that point then I will pick someone up and use him for a week. 
I can't use Vereen, I already have a Pats running back and the Patriots running game has rarely produced strong, consistent fantasy players.
For anyone interested in Davis, I can package him with any receiver except Johnson and Green if the deal is good. I'm not looking for too much.

That's because the Pats do the RB by committee thing to avoid being dependent on any one player. Vereen is different though because he is not only part of that committee but is a change-of-pace RB and as such is a big part of the passing offense, where he is being used as a slot WR of sorts. The only knock on him would be durability but if he is on the field, he will likely end up with 1200 or more all purpose yards. If there is one Pats RB to own, it's Vereen, hence why the local Pat fan has him
Just saying.
