      The kid works hard, that seems to be beyond question. He talks the talk, too. What he says publicly, hits the right chords by me.

      The main thing is, we have 1600 regular season rushing yards with our combination of backs. Of course it's wonderful to have stars on our roster. Having a bunch of pro bowlers adds a huge sense of pride.

      But teams win or lose. If the sum of our RBs is better than any one star, fine by me. Main thing we win.

        Didn't want to start a new thread, but, WHAT ABOUT WYNN?

        I know, 7th rounder that only won a national championship. His stock fell due to his bad work ethics, but can he play?

          Wynn certainly could potentially be the short yardage guy we need. He is a load.

            So everybody...how early do you take Morency in 12 team Fantasy Football? I consider him a weak #2 because of the possibility that he will split carries with Jackson. 4th round maybe?

              I'm leaving him for you

                I consider him a #3... wouldn't take him in the 4th - there's too much other high end talent at WR/TE/QB that starts getting picked off the board.

                Would look at Morency in the 5th/6th round... I think he'd last that long. Got Donald Driver in the 5th round last year, and Fred Taylor in the 6th. There's pretty good talent available in those middle rounds - you'd have to compare them against Morency.

                  You may be right about Morency being a 3. That was just off the top of my head, as I haven't looked at Fantasy stuff yet. The Packer situation is similar to the Indy situation last year. How long before the rookie starts getting more carries than the veteran?

                    Morency is a starting running back though. He's a safe bet to get yards and TD's just like it's a safe bet for a Center in basketball to get 8 rebounds.

                      Exactly right, but I would not want to have to count on him. I'd consider him a #3 right now. Definitely would not want him as a starter yet, and not even that sure I'd want him as a 3 if you value RB's

                      Kind of like Rhodes last year with Indy. People we unsure if Addai would unset him soon, or at all. We have no idea what is going to occur between Morency or Jackson.

                        I'm in two leagues... one values receptions and is weighted toward QB's and WR's. The other is more traditional with RB's being more valuable... still, I don't think I'd consider Morency b/4 the 6th round in either league.

                        Morency is going to get touches, but you have to discount him b/c he's never done it; the Packers running game is questionable anyway; and, Jackson will likely steal carries as the season wears on.
