LaMont Jordan or Jamal Lewis?

Someone in my fantasy league just dropped Jamal Lewis off their roster. Should I pick him up and let go of LaMont Jordan? My running back currently stand as S.Jackson STL, C.Taylor MIN. %26amp; LaMont Jordan OAK/Jamal Lewis BAL.

LaMont Jordan or Jamal Lewis?
Here's why Lewis is available: "Baltimore Ravens running back Jamal Lewis will sit out the next two weeks because of a nagging hip injury."


There is a good chance he was cut because of the injury.


Your opponent is probably hoping no one will pick him up while he's injured.


Compare Stats:


In his first three games he rushed for 234 yards on 58 attempts ( 4.4 yd average)


Jordan is not listed as injured. He's rushed for 55 yards on 29 carries (1.9 yd average)


--------------------------


I think you should cut Jordan. He's not producing enough.


I think Lewis could be a steal, if you can afford to wait two weeks. He will come back fresh and he's a talented big yardage back.


You'll also cost your opponent one of his big running backs.
Reply:I'm gonna tell you to take Jordan and here is why....if you look at the schedule he has some of the worst run defenses coming up and throughout the year especially toward the end of the fantasy football year where you'll definitely benefit come playoff time. Jordan is a stud and people tend to forget his talent. Remember we are only 2 games into the season and the band wagoners tend to panic early. I've seen where people are already saying that LJ is a bust because he is not killin the league right now....these are the people that give up on guys early and make crazy trades and feed there studs to other teams and they usually end up struggling all year. Keep Jordan you'll be sorry if you give up on him.
Reply:LaMont Jordan
Reply:I would drop Jordan like a bad habit. That Oakland O-line could not stop the girl scouts! Lewis is going to be a lot more productive
Reply:go with jordan bal is playing against the best or close to the best d against the run.
Reply:i would definitely take lewis over jordan. oakland has absolutely NOTHING going for them. and stats say it all.
Reply:Yea drop Jordan man and pick up Lewis. the Raiders O line can't stop a cold at this point. He'll but up nothing this year unlike last year.
Reply:I would drop Jordan because the Oakland team is in shambles and I don't think it is wise to have anyone on that team this year....
Reply:The Raiders are a disaster. Go for Jamal but don't expect a whole lot out of him. You already got two good RB's in Jackson and Taylor so if he does well, you could look to trade him.
