I'm afraid of dealing away Thomas for a player with such a crappy offensive line. Thomas has no one who can take his starting job including Reggie while Gore's 2.5 ypc is a concern. Opinions?

McFadden may be the best back in the NFL and fantasy when healthy but he gets nicked up often. All this talk about his groin worries me but he is a highlight reel. I figure Rice is safer health-wise and doesn't share goal line carries.

Dmc could have come back in the game. All these people talking about selling high on Dmc and Mathews make me laugh. The guys could be having the best year yet, and 3 games in people want to "sell high".

I wonder if people wanted to sell high on Tomlinson when he was a second year player and blew up big time.

Tomlinson was never an injury risk until his final 2 years at Sandy VaJJ.

we'll see, but i wouldn't trade either guy. DMC is running around and over everyone, and RM is looking very good in the SD offense. eerily similar to how LT looked when he was starting out.

Which RB's do you think will finish in the top 5 in a .5 ppr?

My guess:

1) McFadden(if he stays relatively healthy)
2) McCoy
3) Rice
4) Peterson
5) MJD

So explain to me why you like McFadden over Rice gain.

If you are in a PPR i would like Rice a touch over DMC, but really I think the difference is marginal. DMC plays in a shitty division so keep that in mind. However he does sometimes get vultured by Bush also.

I'll revise that list upon further review

1-Rice
2a-McCoy
2b-DMC
3-AP
4-Mathews
5-Forte?

I still wouldn't trade for DMC and give up Thomas. Thomas is looking solid and the difference between Rice and DMC is very small.

Don't do it. Gore has a history of being injured. If you trade anyone, it should be McFadden for Rice. Imo

Run DMC is likely to be the best fantasy player this year. In no way should you trade him. I second the response about punching yourself in the face for thinking about this.

Glad for a second opinion on this.
