How good do you think Ray rice will be this season? Do you think that it is worth dropping Leon Washington (have him handcuffed for Jones) in order to pick up Rice? I have limited bench space and am undecided as to what to do.

This is a tough one. Both could see 10-12 touches a game. If T.Jones has any trouble, Mangini won’t hesitate to use Washington. I believe Rice has more upside in his offense as baring McGahee doing a 180 I believe Rice has set himself up for the HC going with the hot hand with just about a guaranteed 10-12 touches in anticipation of McGahee moving on asap.
Favre also has me worried re: Jones and the # of times Favre will actually go with what is called on the sidelines.
Due to you having Jones, I’d hold onto Washington but I’d go with your gut.

Tav is right on, this is tuffer then it seems on the surface. I would roll with Rice though. I really like Rice though which is why I pick him. You got insurance with Washington, but if Jones stays healthy your stuck with back up. I don't trust McGahee this year anymore since this is a knee injury and has history. Very close call though so go with your gut.

I think McGahee’s injury history isnt that bad. He has already come back from a much worse knee injury. I think the number of carries Rice gets week one will be the most he gets all season!!!

I think that I will hold on to Washington for now being that it is the safer play. Although I like Jones this year I do have some concerns about his age and pre season performance.
Thanks for the advice everyone.
