Since the thread topic was predictions on D.Rhodes this week and not who's better? Here's my PREDICTION for D.Rhodes this week:15 carries/85 yds/1td5 rec/25 yds/0td

That sounds about right.But, what do you think he will do for the entire season?

BTW, I want to reiterate that I think Rhodes will keep the starting job all year. Yes, I drafted him last night, but I also said this a few times in the past month. Addai went higher than I was willing to take him, and I wasn't impressed by him either at LSU or in the preseason. I think Addai's bust potential is significant.I expect this to be a little bit like the situation in Chicago last year when Jones kept the job all season and performed very well even though everyone (including me :( ) was expecting Benson to waltz in and claim the job. The circumstances are different, what with Benson's holdout and poor attitude, but I anticipate that the veteran Rhodes will hold onto the job for at least this year.

What I've said all along as a Colts season ticket homer and self professed homer. The Colts have no reason to demote Rhodes. Unless he is injured, he will be the starter.As for the 12 Pack, I like Coors Light. Rhodes will hit 130/1 at some point this season!

Hey, Colts homersA) What do you Colts Homers project Rhodes final 2006 numbers to look like? 1050/7 225/1B) Who is the better option this year Rhodes or Addai? RhodesC) Didn't one of you guys post that coach Dungy said Rhodes and Addai would split 50/50? NopeD) If you could trade D.Rhodes for F.Taylor would you do it? Yes, if you think FT stays healthy.E) What is the word around Indy as to who will be the man? No word other than Rhodes is the starter. My OPINION is he stays the starter ala Bears of '05Thanks in advance

The Colts are a team that are in their "window" of opportunity to get a championship,they won't waste their time with a RB who is struggling,IF both Rhodes and Addai are competent I see Rhodes with 800 yds and 6-7 td's,add some receiving yds and maybe 30-35 catches. IF Addai struggles then Rhodes gets 1100 yds and 8-9 td's.

How bad a team must you have, to be considering starting Rhodes?

In a 16 team league, that might be OK.

But Rhodes owners don't care what the freaking head coach says, they KNOW he's starting and getting all the action... Rose colored glasses = disappointing fantasy points sunday night.

Yall may want to check out Dodds's rankings. Rhodes is in his top 24, so this very web site recommends Rhodes as a viable RB2 play this week.
