RB keeper question

Postby Irish Drunk » Mon Jul 13, 2009 1:38 pm

Points league: 1 point every 20 yards rushing, 1 point every 15 receiving. 3 pts TD rush/rec

I have Portis, Lynch and Jacobs and can keep only 2. I'm leaning towards Portis and Lynch but is there any way you can make a case for Jacobs over either of these two? Thanks in advance for your input.

I would keep Jacobs and Portis... Lynch should slide due to suspension however if your not keen on jacobs then tale lynch and make sure you nag F Jackson late rounds ;)

Jacobs and Portis would be my choice too. If you take Lynch, make sure you have another top RB to take his place during the first 4 weeks. If you handcuff him, make sure you get Jackson and Rhodes.

Help me too? viewtopic.php?f=18&t=438362

You MUST be drunk Irish. Jacobs is a better keeper than Portis & Lynch.

I would like to go ahead and thank you on behalf of your opponents if you drop Jacobs.

IMO Jacobs is a for sure keeper and the next is a toss up. How long can you keep them?

Portis is better now but Lynch is very young so if its a long term keeper you might go Lynch. If its only 1-2yrs I go Portis.


Jacobs for sure!

Jacobs is the best of the three!!!! You must keep him. Now, for the other person, I begrudginly say Portis, who I am not fond of but he will get you the yards. I think Lynch will be in a committee this year with Jackson.

Thanks for your bluntness spiderman!

Thanks to all, I will keep Jacobs and Portis. I just worry about Jacobs' durability which is the main reason I was leaning towards Lynch instead.
