Brandon Jacobs for Steven Jackson?

[dare]

I have BJ, he has SJAX.
Should I trade one panic/frustration for another, this early?(PPR league)

[latsprewell20002000]

I would rather have Jacobs and its by ALOT.

I wouldn't make any rash trades this early, but I would take S. Jax over him.

Jacobs went up against a tough run defense week 1, and didn't score against them week 1 last year either.

[latsprewell20002000]

You would rather have Jackson, a RB on possibly the worst team in the NFL, who is forced to pass just about every play after the first couple of series cause they are losing by twenty points? You would rather have Jackson over Jacobs, who plays on a run first team, a team that killing the clock and running the ball is a big part of their game play. Cause they know they can shorten the game, play good D, run the ball, and win most games this way.

I dont know i just dont see how having Jackson is better than having Jacobs. I just dont.

Well, then you'll continue not to see it. Aside from the fact that Jackson is more skilled, he:

a. Doesn't share carries.
b. Catches the ball (40 Rec last year vs. Jacobs 6)

Not to mention Jacobs is going to be a little less motivated now that he's not working for a contract anymore.

[latsprewell20002000]

Yeah the PPR does change it a bit, sorry i missed that. Jackson is more skilled, yes, but is on the worst team in the NFL.

[Crazed98]

I would still go with Jacobs even in PPR. With Danny Ware (3rd string RB out) Jacobs will have more opportunities for catches.

[WhipperSnappers44]

I would take Jacobs as well......sure, he had only 6 receptions all year last year but he did have 2 catches in week one of this year! (Maybe a sign of a good reception year).......SJAX is a great RB and he would be the clear cut choice but the Rams are the suck of the sucks and they will be passing all day trying to play catchup! Plus the fact that Bulger is lame and so the defenses will just stack the box on SJAX all year as well since they know Bulger can't throw and have nobody to throw it too (you double/triple coverage Avery and you have nobody left)!!! LOL .......gosh that team is horrible!!!

BJ and it's not even close!!!
