                                                      M.Gordon @ NYG

                                                      M.Hardman vs Cleve

Hmmmm Battle of the low floor vs possible high ceiling.

I go Hardman. I think he claims the #2 spot for good and could do some damage, especially in a game that could be a doozy.

MelGo- Range of outcomes 8-16 points. Sees half the snaps, 9-12 carries, 2 catches and maybe a TD.  That line was run blocking well in preseason (YMMV, preseason etc).

Hardman- Range of outcomes 5-15 points. Picked him up last year and was like- wait, who's this Robinson fellow? Wait, who's Pringle? Damnit! Unless he's really claimed the WR2 spot (which is really a WR3 considering the volume Kelce and Hill get), I think he's going to be hard to trust for me until I see it.  I haven't been paying as much attention to Chiefs camp or who's running with the 1's but last year they kept peppering all of the guys, not a clear #2 WR. The floor is 2 catches my dude. Hope I'm wrong for your sake. He was way off my board...

I think these two are about as close as you can get. I would probably start Gordon simply because his touches are nearly guaranteed.

I think this is a very easy choice for week 1.  I go Melvin Gordon and it's not close.  I have no idea how Hardman will actually be used.  I would like to see a game before I just put him in the lineup.

Agreed with Gally above. Gordon and I dont think it is is that close. Only reason I play Hardman is if I know I am in an unfavorable matchup and you dont think you will win. I think Hardman is more of a boom or bust guy you can roll the dice on. Gordon is the better option for a low floor. 

 

[Goooals]

For week 1, I think you go Gordon as well. He is the safer play and a guarantee of points. Hardman is boom/bust material and we still don't know how he will be used. Watkins killed it in week 1 last year and we never heard from him again.

TBH I thought this was a "What player do I want on my team" not a "Who should I start week 1" - although now I see it says he's looking for flex  oops

If this is just a week 1 roster question, then I agree with Gordon as the start for now. If Hardman takes over the clear #2 you can start using him once you have the clarity. (I'ld still take Hardman over Gordon if it was a simple who to roster question in most cases - baring a really weak RB stable)

Gordon is the easy call in my opinion. I'm not gonna believe in Hardman until I actually see a reason to.
