    Hope it goes through. I think Deangelo's value will decrease a lot faster then Rickys. I also think Ricky is much better suited to have a big season. No homerness. Hope this guy bites on the offer.

    Well, that would depend on if Deangelo gets more than 50% of the carries vs. Ricky. If Stewart falters, Deangelo's value skyrockets.

    That's a tough call. For purposes of weeks 1 and 2, they're basically the same guy. IMO, this comes down to who you think will get more carries this year. Do you think Ronnie will be 100% healthy and will get an increased workload as the season progresses? Do you think Jonathan Stewart will make an immediate impact despite pain in his toe?

    Personally, I have Ricky ahead of DeAngelo just because he's got a higher upside. I also think Stewart will eventually take the starting job, or at least become a sort of "co-starter," ala Maurice Morris and Julius Jones.

    I think thats a mistake. Deangelo is a former 1st rounder hungry to prove himself who at worst will time share with Stewart. Ricky at best will get 10-12 carries a game behind Ronnie who is a proven workhorse. Deangelo is having a very strong camp and will start to open the season. Stewart is still rebounding from a foot injury. Worst case Williams wins the job and you trade him after 2 good weeks, unless theyre just really THAT good. You get a lot more value then. Its a bad idea. Pull it down asap.
