Cedric Benson vs. Thomas Jones (1 Viewer)

[mcnabbmcnow]

My question to you is, which went first in your league, Cedric Benson or Thomas Jones? I had a pick earlier today, and because of the new information that came to light regarding Benson leaving early, I decided to pick Jones over Benson. Jones has more experience and the Bears haven't seen enough of Benson yet. If I can get Benson in the next round, I might, just to protect myself. Who would you take first?

We need more threads on these two.

Enough threads on these guys, but to answer your question on ADP, my sophisticated formula says that T Jones should go between 5.10 and 6.08 and C Benson should go somewhere between 5.07 and 8.11...

Drafted Sunday night in a 12 team ppr league...Benson 3.01 and I took TJ at 7.06.I think alot of people that haven't kept up with the situation have a magazine from early to mid summer listing Benson as the starter and figure that since TJ hasn't been able to practice much in Benson's absence, it is still the status quo. I think at worst TJ will be the 3rd down back and more than likely with the recent developments will be the key component to the offense again.

I faced this problem just a day or two after Benson got injured in practice (so I was really unsure how people felt about him). I was picking 3rd, and we were at the 6th/7th turn in a 10-team league. I was looking to grab the pair back-to-back to assure myself of getting the Chicago situation to use as my RB3 behind Droughns and Tomlinson. I wound up grabbing Jones first because, first of all, if I failed to pair them I think he's the more valuable one to own, and because second of all, I figured taking Jones was more likely to shake people's confidence in Benson than taking Benson was to shake people's confidence in Jones. Benson wound up falling the 4 picks and I grabbed him in the 7th. Great value, imo.
