Battle of the Mikes -- Tolbert vs. Bush (1 Viewer)

[Kitrick Taylor]

Is Bush still preferred over Tolbert?

Not for me. I'd rather gamble on the better player, Tolbert, since they're both in poor situations now.

I wouldnt touch Tolbert with the current situation in CAR, he will be a waste of a pick unless Stewart or DWill gets traded.Bush is at least the clear #2 RB for his team and will get a good amount of GL touches I would guess.

DeAngelo will be 30 in one year. Stewart will be a free agent. For 2012, both of these guys have limited fantasy value. Bush has virtually no chance to go up barring injury. Stewart could still be traded and increased Tolbert's.

For 2013, Bush will be 29 and Tolbert 27. If anything, Tolbert has much more of a chance to increase his current value than Bush. Right now, both are practically worthless in terms of 2012 contribution.

I'd agree Tolbert will likely be worthless in 2012, I don't think the same for Bush. I think he's a solid bet to finish in the top 30 RBs. Is that great? No. Respectable guy as a #3 RB? I think so.

Agreed. Even if Forte plays the whole year, I think Bush will be a serviceable flex guy. In my leagues we have 2 RB/WR, so he definitely will in that format while Tolbert still isnt even worth drafting.

Neither was worth the hold dynasty owners had on them. Period. Bush got almost no sniffs as a less back, and Tolbert, tough to see how he even gets a carry you can count on.
