EZ Money 36 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 This is a team A question for me (point per reception, start 1 RB&3WR or 2&2, or 1 RB & 3 WR) I offered a trade to make a better playoff push. I believe in giving up some depth at the end of the season and looking for matchups too. So I offered Thomas Jones, Lance Moore and Tori Holt..........for Joe Addai, Ted Ginn, and Devery Henderson. My starting lineup would now be Peyton Chris Johnson Westy Addai Andre Johnson Daniels I dont see any circumstance under which Moore or Holt would start for me any more this year. I think that Addai has way more upside the rest of the way over Thomas Jones, and in fact, I started Kevin Faulk over Jones this past weekend. Indy has a favorable rushing schedule the rest of the way and T Jones is getting closer and closer to splitting carries. if I am way off on this please let me know, but let me know your feelings please. So the question for me really is........Is Addai better than Thomas Jones for the rest of the season? Thanks for the help in advance!

WashingtonD Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I think you are off here. Yes Washington picked up a few carries against the Bills, but look back a few games and Washington is a 4-5 carry type of a guy, versus 15-18 for TJ. TJ has STL, NE, Ten, Denver, SF, Buf, and Seattle Addai has Pit, Hou, SD, CLe, Cin, Det, and Jac Pretty comparable actually...you love TJ this week, against Denver, SF, and in the FF superbowl against Seattle...Addai you love against Hou and Detroit. (Cincy is improving). If I had Addai and someone offered me TJ for him straight up right now, I'd jump on it in a heartbeat (redraft league only) Good Luck WashD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearcatTom Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I think it is a push right now. I won Addai and have waited all year for him to produce and now with a hamstring injury, you don't know how it will go. Yes, Washington has gotten some touches, but he always has. There is a reason they brought TJ in. I would be hesitant to trade a guy that for now, I know will play each week, for a guy that has a hammy issue and hasn't performed.

cool hand luke Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I agree with WashD and Bearcat Tom....when I have seen Jones and Addai run this year it looks to me that Jones is far more explosive! Jones is also not recovering from an injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
