Who would you franchise? TO or LJ?

Question

Standard points league plus one point per reception. I lose my pick for the round in which I picked my franchise player in last years draft.

Larry Johnson was my first round and TO was my seventh round. Therefore, if I keep TO I only lose a seventh round pick. If I stick with LJ I lose my first round pick.

I'm leaning towards TO b/c he posted great numbers last year and will give me a decent shot at repicking LJ in the first round (or someone else just as valuable). However, LJ is LJ even though he had an injury prone year. I am also concerned that the Chiefs line will not be enough to get him the yards for this year.

Please share your thoughts! Thank you!

Answer 1

Depends who else is available first round. If you have some good RB's, take T.O and dont look back. Gaining a first rounder for LJ and getting to keep T.O is an amazing deal.

If you have another like top 15 RB on the list, take him in a heartbeat over LJ. He's beat up and he wont come back nicely from that injury. And like you said....the O line has lost its charm in the KC.

Franchise T.O

Answer 2

then definitely keep T.O. If you are only going to lose a 7th round pick you have to keep a guy with his talent. He is definitely a 2nd round player if you were doing a draft from scratch. How the h**l did you get him in round 7 last year.
