Richardson or Martin (1 Viewer)

[wickster33]

Which is the rookie rb to own.

Both are on run first teams.

Both have decent run blocking offensive lines.

Neither have credible competition for touches.

Richardson has the better pedigree, but Martin looks like the safer injury bet.

One or both of these rookies will end up in the top 10 this year. Who do you like?

How is it that by Aug 28th we haven't had a thread comparing these 2?

Can't wait!

They both have very good O-Lines but Tampa signed arguably the best Guard in the NFL in the offseason and also has a much better QB and WR corp than Cleveland does. There may be fewer touches given to Martin but he also will have less likliehood of 8-9 man boxes to run against than Richardson. Martin may lose a few touches to Blount (although I doubt it will be many) and Richardson had a surgery(although said to be minor) right before the season on his knee. They are both very good options this year but I would lean towards Martin.
