NFL is suspending Ravens RB Ray Rice for the first two games this season, per sources. The suspension is expected to be announced today.


What does this do for Pierce's value? he now turn into a RB2?

Not sure. Pierce didn't do shite last year. I sort of liked him, but on the theory that he'd have a few weeks to prove himself. Assuming Rice is back to normal, and Pierce doesn't go off the first two games, I'd think Rice steps right back in.

Im sure he can, doubt he would win.

The Pierce angle is interesting. He was starting to cut into Rice's carries last season so hell be the workhorse to start.

So you think that Ray's late round value goes up? He's going in the 4-5 right now, you gotta believe he drops a round.

I think most were expecting at least 2 games and that expectation was already cutting into his value.

I was expecting 3-4 games, so I will actually move Rice up a little.

This is not a positive for Pierce. This is a negative. If anything bump Rice up your board and Pierce down, but you really shouldnt evaluate them any different than you would going into a normal season. Two wks is nothing.

The Ravens and Ray Rice were hoping the suspension was only going to be two games. Expect no appeal.

I think Rice may have have a good bounce back, but he burned me last year and I'm now gun shy on him. I guess it should go up a little though, since it's only 2 games. But I don't want to burn a 4th round pick on a guy who will not only miss the 1st two weeks, but who also may suck.
