Fantasy Football: Who would you rather have?

Question

Steven Jackson and Roy Williams (DET WR), or Clinton Portis and Marques Colston?

Answer 1

both the rb's suck, and i think colston is much better than roy, so portis/colston.

Answer 2

jackson       williams

Answer 3

Portis and Colston.

Jackson is obviously better than Portis but the gap between Colston and Williams much greater than that of Sjax and Portis.

Answer 4

S-Jax and Roy....

Portis is always a threat to get hurt and Colston is also risky. I think S-Jax/Roy are more dependable and are big play guys that make consistent 100 yd/ 1-2 td games more often than not.

Answer 5

Portis finished as the fifth best back last year, proving he can do it, he has only had one season with injury. He will most likely do better this year than last. Jackson was injured last season and Rams have not gotten better on the O-line to support jackson's hard-nose running ability. Marques Colston is more durable than Roy Williams, and after a slow start, Colston proved what he could do in limited touches, Williams' only good year came when he got a lot of touches every game. Portis and Colston is better.

Answer 6

Tough.

Steven Jackson is coming off a series of injuries and had a terrible (though injured) O-line last year.

Portis is losing carries and himself has had a string of injuries.  He's got a lot of miles...

New coaching in Washington...

Roy Williams finished the season on IR.

Colston continues to emerge, and enters the all important third year when WRs typically blossom.

I like Jackson better than Portis, but Colston better than Williams.

I would narrowly favor the Portis-Colston side, but it's pretty balanced.

Here's how Footballguys ranked them overall, in standard redraft leagues (not PPR):

C. Portis - #8

S. Jackson - #4

R. Williams - #26

M. Colston - #43

Answer 7

clinton and marques

Answer 8

Jackson and williams.  Jackson was hurt alot last year but should explode this year, and williams is a top receiver.
