Which one of these backs is the best while felix is out.

Murray will likely see more opportunities, but Choice might be safer in PPR

 

[duaneok66]

both will be non-startable for fantasy . . .

but since I didn't answer the question I will say Choice . . .

I have Blount and jones out, so I have battle and Tolbert as my backs and d Nelson on bye, so I need some help.

The Boys this year are all about going young. Add that to the fact that Choice doesn't go on special teams and is thus a back up that functions only as a back up, and I think you get to Murray getting every possible chance to take the reins. Felix has far from proven anything as the lead this year, so it's time to see what DeMarco's got. Just my opinion and

Murray, and in time we'll all see it's not close.

Lol c'mon man.

 

[nebfan]

Thanks. I have Murray as my first choice on waivers, but I am last, so I am doubting I get him. I have Choice as my second choice and D. Williams as my third.

Choice will get all the 3rd down check downs and goal line opportunities. Choice will score more pts. Murray is an afterthought.

 

[nysportsfan]

I think it's Murray, and he could have a very good week against the Rams.

doubt he can protect Romo like Choice can . . .

Isnt Choice the one the Cowboys have been trying to trade?Why will Choice be "the man" all of a sudden over Murray?

 

[duaneok66]

Murray (probably) isn't good at pass pro yet . . .

and notice how Choice is still on the team after supposedly being on his way out two months ago . . .

Choice is average (at best), but he's back there to protect Romo . . .

I don't know if I would be so sure of this. Choice loses a fumble this past week and got half the carries that Murray got. I would not be surprised to see Murray get the lions share of the carries including goal line. I agree that Choice likely gets in for 3rd downs in protection of Romo, but Choice is far from a lock for goal line carries.

Can either be the lead back once Felix is back or are we looking at a RBBC regardless.

 

[Dought Man]

This has RBBC written all over it..with or without Felix.. Its just a big messy pile of "nothing to see here"

 

[Darryl Talley]

If this game turns into a blowout, does it favor Murray for more of a workload down the stretch?

 

[duaneok66]

Dynasty-wise, Murray in a landslide. And I'd still go with Murray in redraft leagues.

Why? Murray basically had no training camp because of the injury. I'd bet a dollar to a doughnut he would've long ago passed Choice otherwise. Murray is simply the better RB.

Murray is a great trade target in dynasty leagues. Felix has talent, but Murray's time will come. He's a fast, tough runner with superb receiving skills.

FBGs appears to be high on Choice this week.

 

[cvnpoka]

appear much much higher on murray unless im looking in the wrong spot

Felix just got dropped in my league. I already have Murray. I'm considering dropping Earnest Graham so as to stash Felix.

Do you enjoy pain and losing fantasy football games ?

So....looking at his numbers(16, 4, 22, 11, bye, 4) explains why he's on the WW. Whew, how the 'mighty' have fallen...

 

[GManiac]

Murray might get more tries. But I think Choice has an overall skillset that fits better as a temporary starter. Still don't see Murray as being a full timer.

 

[ericttspikes]

I'm excited to see what Murray can do in the pros. The guy was a beast at Oklahoma.

 

[Casting Couch]

Phillip Tanner may be the long term long shot blow up RB.
