Will Steven Jackson play??

Question

I'm banking on him for my 4th pick, but I'm weary because of his contract holdout. My draft is in two days. Should I play safe and go with Addai?

Answer 1

The latest news I heard was not to worry about Jackson and holding out that the 2 sides were close to a deal.  Make sure you get Jackson tho.  He will have a MONSTER year this year.

Answer 2

He will ultimately sign before the season and is decent, but not a steal. When a good player tries to hold out on a poor team, unless he is really underpaid - the team has the power.

He should be good for about 1,000 yards (1,500 with receiving added) and about 6-8 touchdowns. The first half of the season could be rough with the NFC east and at the Patriots on the schedule.

He just turned 25 last month, might be out of shape; but should not be long gone yet.

Answer 3

addai; forget jackson. he is long gone.

Answer 4

it doesn't matter Addai is simply better.
