Moss or Portis? WHIR

Postby jmkratt » Tue Aug 04, 2009 3:51 pm

I've got Frank Gore and Roddy White left over from last year. When I draft the 2 best available players I am considering are Randy Moss and Clinton Portis.

12 Team H2H league, 6 pts all TDs, bonus for 100 yd games, 40+yd TDs

Who do you take?

Moss is getting old and Portis is an injury concern to me so I am kinda on the fence.

Please leave a link and I will help you out, too!

I would go with Moss. You already have a solid RB in Gore and Moss with compliment White very well with having two top tier WRs.
A win next week and all is forgotten.

I would run with Moss as well. Once you make that draft pick you will probably not have very good options at WR. I feel there are plenty of bargain RB's to be had this year and not half as many wr's.

My answer depends on when your draft is. I would like to see Brady on the field during preseason to see if he is truly back to his old self.

Moss. the draft is deep at RB and not many good WRs.

I think its a good idea to watch some preseason games, but you won't see Brady too much. My belief is that Brady is close to 100% and Moss is still trying to catch that all elusive SB ring! He will be motivated. 1350 and 18TDs are my predictions. Portis will have some good games but the O line is old and below average and no one is really there to take the pressure off of Portis. I fear he will break down this year sooner than later. Go with Randy!!
