Who would you rather have on your dynasty team? (1 Viewer)

[AandA]

I think LJ is a much better back than Frank Gore and would like to hear others opinions.

Thanks

LJ

trade for LJ, or keep LJ.

The real question is where do you rank either in a dynasty? Are they still top 5? I'm thinking not, with LT, Westbrook, AD, Addai and SJAx.

At this point, I'm not sure I'd take either over Portis, FWP, Bush, MJD, KJones, McGahee, Jacobs, or even Lynch. Probably over the last 4, but they're close.

I think LJ is top 5, he will continue to get the ball 20 plus times a game and the offence is built around him. Next year the line will be better and LT, Addai, Jackson and Peterson are the only ones who I would want more.

01. L. Tomlinson

02. A. Peterson

03. B. Westbrook

04. J. Addai

05. W. Parker

06. C. Portis

07. R. Brown

08. S. Jackson

09. R. Bush

10. F. Gore

11. L. Johnson

12. W. McGahee

Ronnie Brown and Portis over LJ. I wouldn't go there. Where is SJax? The guy's 23 or 24.

 

[Whiplash Inc.]

Forgot about Jackson..

Yes, Brown and Portis over LJ. JMO.

tough choice ...

both guys are on teams that have some serious offensive problems that affect their ability to produce.

Both guys have inexperienced, if not inadequate QBs.

The offensive line used to be a strength for KC but it seems like now it's a liability. Im not too familiar w/ the 9er's OL because watching that team has been a tough task. I don't know how much of the OL's problems are due to the lack of a threat from the passing game ... perhaps a SF homer or a 9er fan can provide some OL insight.

ANyway, the question was which player is a better dynasty player ... and my gut says Gore but i can't give a clear reason why.

what makes you say this?Weigman is 34, Wellbourn 31, Turley is 32, Waters is 30, the others aren't impressive.

LJ is toast. you don't run the ball 410 times in a season and stay at your peak production level

gore still has some very productive years ahead of him, IF sanfran can improve that o-line and get an offensive coordinator that actually belongs in the NFL.

personally, i think the only RB with more talent in the nfl is AP

Wiegmann, Turley (and Terry) and Welbourne could be 25 - it doesn't matter because they're the WORST players on the entire OL. It remains to be seen what KC will do with its OL, but I'd be very surprised if it's not better. A free agent guard and a decent center (somehow) would go a LONGGGGGGGG way to fixing what's wrong, which (in run blocking) is the guys inside getting owned on every down. Draft Michael Oher at #1, move McIntosh to RT, sign Ryan Lilja and somehow get the center (this is the area I am concerned about) and all of a sudden you're looking at a fine line which LJ could hammer out 1500+ behind.

In his day, Weigmann was pretty darn good. Now, you're right. But there aren't any better players on the team currently, and FA isn't the way to develop a line. Draft picks take awhile to develop (usually). I can see KC concentrating on fixing the OL this year, but that seems more hopeful than something to base a ranking on.

LJ gets nearly 30 carries/game..he also scores ooldles of TD's..Gore, on the other hand only scored, what, 8 rush tds last season?!

Alex Smith is Ryan Leaf, version 2.0..Larry Allen is 62 years old, how much longer is he going to be around? thats a huge loss if he retires, or, if he signs elsewhere ( don't know his current contract status)..SF will most definitely bring in a new OC, so there's a learning curve for a new offense..Maybe Cam Cameron is fired in Miami and gets the OC job in SF? that would help..

LJ is a lock for 325 carries and 15-20 tds, once they revamp that O-line...

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

LJ is good, but I think this year shows how much OL plays into a Stud RB's success. I like Gore here. Youth being the primary reason.

 

[Chickenwang]

LJ will choke just like every other penn state back.

 

[az_prof]

I would say Gore because he has more upside. LJ is getting closer to 30 all the time, and now may have a broken bone in his foot. His situation reminds me a lot of Alexanders--a guy who had a huge season, then injury, and decline as he ages, and a whose greatest production was at least in part a product of the system and OL. Gore is having a down year but I like his youth and his upside; SF will recover and then so will he.

If LJ has a broken bone in his foot I am worried; and I am worried that the team won't announce the exact nature of the injury.

not to be an ####, but I love this logic. The only people NOT getting closer to 30 are already past it.
