Better RB in PPR this year...Lynch, Ball or Rice?

Recommended Posts

I'm in a 12 team PPR keeper league (keep 3 for your first 3 rounds of picks in the draft) and already have Jimmy Graham & Demaryius Thomas as my top 2 keepers but choosing between 3 RB's for the third. So who do you think will have a better season in PPR this year:

 

Marshawn Lynch

Montee Ball

Ray Rice

 

 

(also, it looks like I'll have the 10th pick in my draft if that makes a difference for who you would pick)

 

 

I know its early June and many questions for these players are still yet to be answered but any and all feedback much appreciated.

Wil,

Give the ball to Ball. Lynch rarely catches out of the backfield and it appears the Seahawks are going to decrease his touches this season. Rice is too inconsistent, you just don't know what you'll get out of him, especially after last season's dismal performance. With Knowshon out of the picture, Ball is going to be the go-to guy in a high-powered offense and has by far the most upside.

Appreciate the feedback fellas!

Yeah, with all the news about a possible hold out from Lynch and a 4-6 game suspension from Rice its kinda making the decision easy.

Rice should be dropped from consideration right off the bat. I don't think we're ever going to see him in the top 10 again. Last year felt like the typical start of an end of career spiral.

 

I may be the only one whose initial reaction was to say that you have to keep Lynch. It's hard to think about letting Beast Mode go. But the others before me are probably right. Between his hold out and some of the noise coming out of Seattle about Michaels, there are a few knocks against him. Plus the PPR factor helps Ball. I think you have to go Balls in.

Lynch if it's for one season, but Ball has much better long term value as a keeper. Go with Ball.
