Thread: R. Williams, Ray Rice or Edgerrin James

First timer here.
I need to start 2 out of the 3. What do I do?

Rice and James

Depends on how much McGahee is gonna play, he's listed as probable, and will most likely split carries with Rice, Ricky Williams is getting the start this week since Brown isn't 100% quite yet, and didn't look bad in preseason either

I'd Go with Rice instead of Williams since they're both probably going to split time with with other backs, along with James.
Williams, IMO, doesn't have much left in the tank, and is a pretty big question mark...he could have a great game, or a terrible game, though i guess you could say the same thing about Rice, since he's just a rookie.

Rice and Williams

Edge is a 3 yard carry a back guy now.. And with Warner at the helm throwing to all his targets Edge wont get much work and wont get much out of what he gets

Rice looked promising and Baltimore certainly wont be passing much with thier passing situation

Ricky is the Dolphins best player and should do pretty good against the Jets.. Ricky will be a steal in the fantasy football world

Glad I drafted him in all three of my leagues!

Start Ricky today. Rice is spilting time and James is old. Today go with James; against a horrid defense.

I've got Rice in right now...still debating.
Jamal Lewis is a game time decision and going up against a top 5 rush defense.
I've got the other rookie option with Chris Johnson but coach says he'll get 40 or 50% of the carries and he's up against JAX defense.
My top backup option is DeAngelo Williams, and he is a starter, but he's splitting carries with Stewert, and I just think the Chargers are super fired up after just missing beating the Patriots in the AFC Championship game, and that they are going to start really strong with something to prove.
I'm pretty sure the new coach in BAL likes his pick Rice a bit better right now, since he's been at practice all preseason and McGahee hasn't...so, I think Rice gets more carries, even if Willis plays...?
Eh?
No????

Ah crap.
They're starting McGahee...guess I'm going to have to go with a guy I know will get carries.
It sounds like DeAngelo has had a hell of a preseason.
Most folks are saying Edge is in for a good game, but it looks like their starting C just hit IR...?


I think Rice could go off vs. CIN, but if Willis starts well...who knows how many carries Rice ends up with?
You're probably better off with going with your starters too.
Ricky and Edge.

I went williams and Rice. I heard Edge had a good game, not sure how many points though.
