Take Martin, Ray and the Ravens offense will struggle a bit this year. A lot of checkdowns and FGs. Martin will carry the Tampa offense in high scoring games against the NFC South teams as opposed to Ray in the defensive AFC North.


You say check downs like its a negative thing for Rice.


Rice has been a top 5 back in 09, 10, 11, 12 with a passing offense that was 18th, 20th, 19th, 15th. He is the offense. That's the point in drafting him.

Not to mention 6 of the top 10 scoring RBs in PPR last season came from offenses ranked in the bottom half on the NFL

He said non PPR, Rice is still a 1st round pick but there are RBs now that are overtaking those top 5 spots. Martin may be one of them. Martin will have more opportunties to score then Rice will this season, not to mention Rice has Pierce hanging in the background for touches. Martin has Brian Leonard,
