Jackson. He is getting the carries for the Bills while Hightower will splitting carries with Wells and we don't know how well he will produce. Jackson has shown he can be great when given the opportunity. Even though Hightower has looked good in the preseason, his measily 2.8 YPC last year leave a lot to be proved.

I think you go with Jackson here as well. Despite the fact that Buf's offense has been pathetic in the preseason, Jackson will start, and will likely have more carries than Hightower will. WHile you're right that Hightower will probably be around the goalline more, Ari has a fantastic WR core, and I don't think they'll hesitate to throw a jump ball in to Fitz, or give it to Wells either, to see what they have with him. In other words, I'm anticipating a higher percentage of touches for Jackson than Hightower, plus Jackson is involved in the passing game as well.

I think that with Jackson, you're getting at least 70-80 total yards, minimum, while Hightower's min is much lower with Wells crowded in there (prob around 45 yards), but at least some chance to score. Jackson's the safer option.

Help me with mine?
