Martin defies logic, the guy never ceases to amaze me. His vision and awareness make up for the speed he has lost over the years. I think he has enough gas in the tank for one more season. I wouldnt want him as my #2 but #3/4 i would take him all day long in a redraft.

Martin is a bargin this season since he can be had late in many drafts. You will have to handcuff with either Houston or Blaylock.

here is a little blurb from fanball on he martin subject from this morning. as was said he has some decent value cause you can get him pretty late. this may help him stay healtheir and fresh but wil most likely curb his overall numbers.

Jets: Martin to share the load?
The News
In his first interview with the media, new offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer talked about the Jets offense, including the role of running back Curtis Martin. "It's way too early do decipher if Cutis can do that (continue to carry the ball 300 times per season)," Schottenheimer told the Newark Star-Ledger. "If we have four running backs we think can play, we're going to be flexible enough to play all four."
Our View
Martin, who is coming off minor knee surgery that ended his 2005 season prematurely, is 33 years old and has over 3,500 carries on his treads, including over 300 in eight of his 11 seasons. The Jets previous coach, Herm Edwards, ran C-Mart into the ground nearly every season. Schottenheimer and the Jets have been tight-lipped about, well, everything this offseason, but we're pretty certain Schottenheimer is simply aiming to keep his future Hall of Famer fresh, not indicating that he'll be part of a job share.

I don't really have an inside information or anything, just a gut feeling that says Cedric Houston will end up being the starter by year-end. I don't see any way that CMart can go the whole year, and with a new coaching staff coming in looking to build something for the future, you would rather go with the young guy (Houston) than the old guy (Blaylock). But like I said, gut feeling.

another muddled situation. C-mart should at least be good for a few weeks, but he's not a guy i'd count on for the whole season
