tdybaz Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana is da Man Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Properson Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 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.

tdybaz Posted August 15, 2019 Author Share Posted August 15, 2019 It is standard, sorry about forgetting to post that. Thanks for your opinions! Any others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaft Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I like both. I think Montgomery is in a better offense, but Jacobs will get more opportunities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSho Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I'm confused, is this a first year keeper league? Rules for keepers, etc? Why are Barkley, CMC, Kamara not in the fold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I understand, but how many are kept that those are your first options? What are the keeper penalties, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
