ebartender Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 i would guess the MJD owner WILL outbid you...why wouldnt he? Guy has made one pick-up all year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stethant Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 For what it's worth, here are the locals at jaguars.com chatting about Jennings: http://forum.jaguars.com/index.php?showtopic=691958 In reading through this board, I'm thinking twice about Jennings. I was planning to use him as a flex over AJ. We think this is going to be all Jennings, but what if it devolves, as a previous poster suggested, into a RBBC? I don't see how you could start this guy over someone like Blount. Blount has a proven track record and he has a high likelihood of a TD and somewhere between good to great yardage. Do we want to trust del Rio on this one? Maybe we're still chasing lightning in a bottle (remember Starks.....). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we're still chasing lightning in a bottle (remember Starks.....). I don't think Jennings will get 100% of the carries but not very many RBs do. I think he'll do just fine with the touches he'll get. Say the Jags have 50 offensive plays. Say 20 of those are runs. Jennings might get 15 of those.

ebartender Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Guy has made one pick-up all year. I got Jennings. Unfortunately I won't be able to start him. I had to start Choice last night b/c if I didn't get Jennings I would have had to go with Shonn Greene. At least I kept Jennings from the MJD owner I am playing.

BeeR Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 We think this is going to be all Jennings, Who is "we" - I don't see anyone saying that. but what if it devolves, as a previous poster suggested, into a RBBC?Who are the other RBs? Honest question. I don't know about any of them. But it would seem Jennings has done well when given the chance, and he should get at least a decent # of chances. I don't see how you could start this guy over someone like Blount.Can't say and not saying Jennings is this amazing start. But if you're hurting for a starter he may be worth a gamble. I'm still waffling between him and Lloyd (with Tebow in there? hmm) or Stv Johnson (BUF offense? also iffy). sigh - why couldn't my guys stay healthy one more game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Pimp Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I'm going with Jennings but instead of Jacobs which I think is safe but I wouldn't start him over Blount or Hillis like some others are thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historymike Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I'm going with Jennings but instead of Jacobs which I think is safe but I wouldn't start him over Blount or Hillis like some others are thinking. I am starting Jennings over Blount at Flex (Foster and McCoy are my starting RBs). I think Blount is too prone to one of those forgettable 4 or 5 point games, while Jennings was putting up decent FF numbers the last few weeks even with MJD starting. Admittedly Blount has a good matchup, but every time I think he has emerged as an every week must-start, he puts up a yawner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_bone65 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I have Jennings in over AJ right now. Perfect time for a snow storm in Philly as well, have Walter in for Maclin but still have Vick and McCoy in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stethant Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 The other Jags RBs in the mix would be Deji Karim and Greg Jones. Karim would get more of whatever touches are left over after Jennings. I agree Jennings is worth a flier, depending on your other options, and I will start him over AJ.

Steelhead Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Do you like Jennings over the likes of Lynch? I wouldn't start him over Blount this week but considering over lynch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantsfan Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 My final thoughts: Foster, DMc, Johnson, Rice, Turner, Charles, AP, SJax, McCoy, Blount I think I'd place ahead of him. Hillis, BJGE, Torain I think I'd take Jennings over these guys. So I have him at 11. Maybe 12 if you like a Hillis over him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebartender Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I have Jennings in over AJ right now. Perfect time for a snow storm in Philly as well, have Walter in for Maclin but still have Vick and McCoy in I have to roll with Vick, McCoy, and Maclin. Would have been nice to start MJD in my re-draft league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS Miscreant Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I have been wrestling with choosing between Bradshaw and F Jackson as my RB2. When I saw Jennings was getting the start I definitely got a little excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 In the final, I hate making moves like this, but Jennings was there for the taking, and I'm just not sure I trust Forte today, so I'm going to sit him for Jennings and simply hope for the best.
