Ricky williams or pierre thomas?

Question

Which RB should I pick up? Many people have told me to get Ricky Williams but I read on the internet that Thomas may be a sleeper. What do you think?

Answer 1

I would use Piere if Bree's, Bush, or Mccalistter get hurt. Other than that pick up Ricky Williams and hope Brown gets hurt again (very possible). Watch for Pierres predicted stats each weeks b/c he may be a sleeper and worth a pickup on some weeks but not a roster spot every week.

Answer 2

Ricky Williams is the better pick. Ronnie Brown is coming off a serious injury and the Dolphins don't have a lot of RBs. The Saints are going to be a passing team mostly. Plus Deuce McAllister comes back and with him and Reggie Bush getting all the carries, Thomas won't get many carries.

Answer 3

While I agree that Williams is the better choice, it isn't as clear cut as pn1125 makes it seem.

McAllister is going to be a non-factor.  He has knee swelling problems and its only pre-season.  Bush hasn't been as dominant as he was supposed to be.  P. Thomas could be in line for more looks.
