Julius Jones v Lions today (1 Viewer)

[loose circuits]

curious if the SP is expecting big things from Julius this week against a very weak Detroit run defense..

 

[Balance]

no.

 

[booda]

Right now, i have him in my lineup over Ronnie Brown. I see them getting up early and staying there..

JJ usually has about 4 monster games a year...this trend goes back to his Dallas days. He has had two already this will be #3. Looking for about 120 rushing, 1 long TD and about 25 yards rec. I am plugging him in over Kev Smith who I admire his toughness but that shoulder still isn't right. FBG rankings have them close but could see Kev getting pulled if shoulder is re aggravated.

 

[Mr. Retukes]

Thinking of starting him over Moreno.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

If he doesn't go off this game, he's never going to.

 

[Haberdasher]

Picked him up and am starting him over Kevin Smith today. I like this match up.

Knapp + match-up = yes

i've heard a few times that the coaches plan on giving Louis Rankin a look today. either that be they plan on working him in, from JJ looking like #### and he gets his chance, or the game is well in hand.

I'm starting him over Moreno in a league where my better options are off/out.

 

[werdnoynek]

Louis Rankin anyone??

 

[aardball44]

I'm starting Jones today out of necessity (stupid byes and concussions!), and I'm hoping he goes off against my sad sack Lions.

 

[Mjolnirs]

Thinking of starting him over Moreno.

Same here.

 

[Mr. Retukes]

Louis Rankin anyone??

Why? The guy was just promoted from the practice squad and has never had a single carry in the NFL.Instead of digging for the super-ultra-mega sleeper, why not look for the things that are a bit more obvious: Edge is gone, Jones is still the starter, Jones plays better at home, and Detroit is the #27 fantasy defense vs. RBs.

I'd be surprised if Rankin was even activated for this game, let alone get more than 1-2 touches.
