First pick... Jacobs or Montgomery?

I have the first pick in our keeper league, and I'm already leaning heavily towards Montgomery. But I like what I also read about Jacobs in Oakland.

I love Chicago's young offense and strong D, which would lend itself to more rushing attempts to run out games. And Jacobs makes me nervous with an older crew and a poor defense in Oakland.

 

Which back do you prefer, and why?

If this is standard, I prefer Montgomery for the reasons you said.  The Bears defense will likely keep games low scoring and allow the Bears to run a lot and be running out the clock on the ground in the 4th quarter.

 

In PPR, I like Jacobs.  His hands are being raved about and I think he will have a huge role relatively soon in Oakland.

I agree. I think Montgomery is the better back on a better team.

Montgomery is a special runner and as a Vikings fan, hate that he went to the Bears. Ceiling is probably prime Arian Foster or LeSean McCoy numbers.

 

I can see Jacobs putting up prime Brian Westbrook stats right out the gate for a very long time.

 

PPR, toss up. Standard, Montgomery.

I'm confused, is this a first year keeper league?  Rules for keepers, etc? Why are Barkley, CMC, Kamara not in the fold?

Not sure what's confusing, it's a keeper league, so Barkley, CMC and Kamara are .... being kept by their respective teams.

Yes, I understand,  but how many are kept that those are your first options?  What are the keeper penalties, etc.
