Need help to decide who to keep in one league.

It's .5 PPR
Melvin Gordon - 8th Round
Jordan Howard -13th Round
Obviously I'm leaning Howard, but Gordon was a touchdown vulture last year and had quite a few monster games thanks to such.

Go Howard

I'd say Howard, too, although I think Gordon has a better hold on the starting job than Howard.
John Fox can be super frustrating.

Howard has the better value but I'd keep Gordon. They're both steals, so I'd keep the better player

I'd keep Gordon, 100%.

Gordon for sure.

DJ and lose a 2nd, or Ajayi and lose a last?
If I chose Ajayi, one dude is gonna have Zeke and DJ as his RBs

Bears O is trash. If MT develops then Howard would be better but as of now it's Gordon.

Gordon.

DJ all day. Great value for a top 2 player.

Winston or Eifert for an 8th.
6pt TDs, .5 ppr.

Howard. This is not even close.

It's really not Dellort.
The Bears offense was trash last year. But they have some road graters in the interior of that line, and the analytics on Howard jump off the page. Forced missed tackles, % of yardage off big plays, performance vs top rush defenses. All the boxes are checked
As you know with any RB, there is inherent risk. History says neither Gordon or Howard will match last year's production. Gordon for one has a lot more incoming variables to alter his production. Howard likely will have to shoulder more of the load

Speaking about WR like Allen and Williams? I think the backfield itself is about as uncrowded as it gets in today's NFL.

He will probably have more rushing attempts, but total touches will probably be pretty close. Gordon may catch 40 more balls than Howard.
I do think I would probably keep Howard- the people saying there's no difference between 8th and 13th round are mistaken.

I'm not really convinced by Gordon as an NFL talent. 3.9 y/a is pretty paltry. Last year he was mainly a beneficiary of opportunity with the injury to Woodhead. He still would have been a useful fantasy player, but he wouldn't have had nearly the effect. That said, that opportunity that he had last year probably isn't going anywhere. The chargers haven't added anyone significant in the running game that I'm aware of. Still I would tend to go with the guy who I think is a better talent on this.

New coaching staff too. That charger team had a lot of bad beats last year, hard to say this season will be the same. They had a lot of those catch up/garbage time dump offs last season
Gordon went 41/419/2 in the pass game. Not something people talk about, but that's nearly 100 PPR points in the pass game. Allen excels in those short to intermediate routes and will command a lot of targets. Williams gets targets. HH could see more action ETA forgot to mention Brandon Oliver too is pass catching and pass pro

Gordon was still a sub 4 ypc back. 12 rushing TDs w/ 9 coming from 3 yards and in. That's just not something I'm banking on.
Gordon may not catch 40 balls period, idk about 40 more than Howard

I would keep Howard and not think twice about it. I would draft him over Gordon as is. The 13th round price makes it a no brainier IMO.

Tbh P I'm fading both. Won't own either at their price.
We will go out and just find this year's Gordon and Howard in the later rounds or the wire
