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.

Melvin Gordon is just an odd case to where he doesn't look like the style of player he was in college.

I think Howard is a legit NFL RB...just on a bad team.

Cheaper and more talented should be a pretty easy decision for you.

you were asking about david johnson, no?

You have to go Gordon. There are too many questions surrounding Chicago this year, especially their offense. You never really know what will happen, but going with Howard, IMO is more of a risk.

Plus, in the 13th round there will be players out there you can take a risk on, who could possibly produce more than Howard. In the 8th round, it is still too early to start getting too risky.
