Rule of thumb when weighing your options is situation and how good the offense is

Bell wins by this rule, but I'm a huge DJ homer

I just like Johnson over Bell because I think that he is less risk. Last year Bell beat out Johnson on a point per game basis by a smidge. I think Bell does have slightly more upside. But I worry about the history of suspensions which could become very significant with one more mistake. Also, I'm not hugely concerned about injury risk, but that history is also there with Bell. Only slightly more upside paired with moderately more risk makes me pick Johnson over Bell.

I wouldn't be upset with either though.

I had said DJ but after thinking on it, he's not scoring 20 TDs again. Last season will be his best season ever. Bell has done it more consistently, so Id go Bell.

I also wouldn't rule out OBJ and Antonio Brown.

its really just splitting hairs, you'll be fine either way.

I prefer johnson slightly for reasons Peazey alluded to. Sure DJ's TDs will probably go down but not big a significant margin....who's going to take those RZ touches from him?
