definitely no problem with starting cruz. the giants may be down throughout the game.

I started lacy in a tough spot in week 1 because of the investment. If you have a better player, go with him. There is a real possibility Jennings is a bell cow beast this season, but I'm keeping him benched until I can see him against an awesome lions front 4 nd

I'd start both and try to get Vereen in there somehow as well.

this weekend, I agree, that's what I expect. redskins have a trash run D, Dallas has a trash run D, Philly's front 7 isn't very imposing...the touches won't be an issue...does he have the talent...what kind of runner is he? is he durable. I honestly have seen him play once and he played kind of like a swing back

In PPR, I'd start Vereen while he's healthy.

I like Jennings a lot this year. Their new system is all about getting the ball out of Eli's hands quickly and raising his completion percentage. That means Jennings will see a lot of screens and wheel routes go his way. In a PPR, I think Jennings will be great. I predict sixty catches for him this year.

where do you see him in a standard league...is he a bulk carry back?

No reason he should not see 250 carries if he stays healthy. I think he will be a top 15 back this year and flirt with top 10 in PPR. He always did well when he had the chance in the past.

Of course, I am one of the biggest Jennings optimists on here along with TTT.

MJD and the other Sirius fantasy hosts have been all over him so I took him only knowing that coughlin loves to run the ball.

that and no one in my league drafted him...it got to the point I HAD to take him because he was 40-50 spots past his ADP

40-50 past his ADP? What?

Yeah, I love Marcel Reece also. When run DMC would inevitably go down, Reece used to be an autostart and RB1 for the week.

casual NFL fans don't know who he is, they may have last year...I knew he was but really didn't know what kind of player he was


yeah, let me check my draft...I think I got him in the 70s, maybe 80s... 8 man league, but finally I had to do it

I think the dude was ranked in the 30's on yahoo and like 52 on espn. Even casaul fans would not let him slide that much past his adp I would think.

I got Jennings in the 5th. I'm taking a wait and see approach since it's a standard league and the Giants are implementing a new offensive system this year. They just looked so lost in the preseason.

Running with J. Bell for this game instead. Thunder and lightning... Hope there's more thunder :)

young, married with children males absolutely would. They don't have the time for the homework. I just listen to Sirius fantasy so I instantly know more than them

he fell in 2 other drafts...my 10 man league, but I don't know if I'm playing with tards yet, 1 is for sure, 1 isn't.

I drafted a team with my best friend for his wife and it happened again

that one is all chicks though
