Still holding onto those thoughts. With a little more desperation every passing day.
But Barry Sanders was a god sent down from Mt Olympus, all the rest are mere mortals!
Was just thinking that... MJD is a great back, don't get me wrong, but Barry is very arguably the greatest RB to step onto a football field, at WORST the third greatest. Thar be a bit of a difference there. On the flipside, I understand how that can be a curse...

In retrospect I was perilously close to blasphamous. Forgive me Barry, I will stick more needles in my Wayne Fontes voodoo doll*.

At this point, If I'm an MJD owner who didn't make sure to handcuff Jennings in the later rounds, I'd be a bit worried. Jennings is a solid runner who has proven he can shoulder the load if need be, a legit RB2 if given the chance.

First time here, I was looking for more fantasy football boards to take a look at.
I'm a Rashad Jennings owner who does NOT have MJD. The guy who had MJD isn't biting yet or getting worried it seems. I'm afraid if i hold too long, he won't be as valuable. If I give him up too early, I might not be getting my money's worth. What's a guy to do?!

Have you been in contact with this MJD owner? He could (and probably should) be sweating a little but just doesn't want to get gouged. Rashad Jennings is more valuable to a MJD owner right now than a non-owner, so I would initiate some trade talks. I think you could get a WR4 or so back. Thats a decent haul IMO because I'm in the camp that believes MJD doesn't miss a game.

I contacted him last week and he didn't seemed too worried so I said I'd check back with him within a week or so. I plan on doing so one day very soon.
Did anyone see the MJD interview the other day? He looked like a confused homeless guy. I don't know where his mental state is at right now but I do know the interview made me feel even more uneasy about touching him inside the top 50.
