What if he's traded to Green Bay?

What if he goes Ricky Williams tomorrow if he gets pissed that his bluff got called?

I know that's a longshot but it certainly seems more likely than him getting traded to Green Bay. Khan is a new owner and caving to his desires sets a horrible precedent as does tearing up the remaining two years of a contract for a 27 year old running back. The Jaguars are one of the worst revenue-generating teams so wasting that money on MJD is idiotic.

MJD ain't gettin' that money from the Jags. He might as well suck it up and play.

He's worried MJD will sit out and miss games

On the podcast he does, he has said if not for the holdout MJD would be in the tier of guys like Rice and McCoy.

I think 17 is to low for my own rankings of MJD, but his premise isn't moronic.

Honestly, he might just be worried about the rust associated with no training camp and installing the new offensive system. It's a legitimate concern especially when holdouts usually start slow or have a down year.

If by moron you mean one of the best in the business, then yes, yes he is.


Even if MJD reports he'll be this years CJ0K.

Because he may holdout and not even play in some games.

Even if it's just bargaining power and it's a bluff, I'd rather go with players that will be on the field for sure. Even ones with injury concerns over him.

ETA: That said I have him 10th.

wait despite all the reports about a trade being very unlikely he should rank him in the top because random fan speculates he could possibly end up in GB? Great.

I'll say this about Berry, I think his QB/TE early strategy sounds destined for failure

if you pick where i do (12 out of 12 in a standard league) taking a top 4 QB with Graham/Gronk could be your best bet. RM getting hurt and MJD holding out takes 2 picks out of the picture. its all about value.

I personally think he is a moron.

My draft Sunday he was 25th pick overall.

I usually do not like his draft strategies. I think his week by week analysis is pretty good though.
