Gratefulegg1973 253 Posted November 22, 2014 No loss of draft pick or anything, just straight up keep 1. Who you like best for the future out of these guys? L. Murray Hill Gio Mason Hillman McKinnon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fozapd 8 Posted November 22, 2014 Gio Hill Mason Murray McKinnon Hillman Go to keep gio or hill as both look like top rbs in the league. Mason I think is the starter for the rams next year too. Murray could be good but I'm not over buying just yet. McKinnon who knows what the Vikings do. Hillman not sure what his role will be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree here but I'd put McKinnon over Murray until Murray starts getting more than 5 carries Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobSanders_33 127 Posted November 22, 2014 Hill- a true foundation back. Gio clouds the issue. Gio- has proven his value. Hill limits upside. Mason- looks to the future on run heavy offense and potentially strong OL. Hillman- was clearly best back in Denver. Maybe one more year with PM. McKinnon- not sold he is feature back.

jpcdds 21 Posted November 22, 2014 Struggling with McKinnon v L Murray myself in a keeper... I think of all the backs Hill is the best all around back to be the bell cow of an offense but as stated earlier Gio isn't far behind and they are in the same backfield. Hillman is my least favorite... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BattleshipLorenzen 3 Posted November 22, 2014 (edited) When do you have to decide?If you have time, I'd wait for Murray. Otherwise, Tre Mason seems like the safest. More analysis below rankings: If now/before this week's remaining games: Mason Hill L. Murray Gio McKinnon Hillman If you can wait, my ranking (taking more upside into account): L.Murray Hill McKinnon Mason Gio Hillman Tre Mason: Check out the STL offensive line: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/ol 11 in adjusted line yards (yards attributed to success of O-line), and that's lower than it has been. They are low in open-field yards, but that should be going up now that Tre is the entrenched starter. Oh, and a good defense that is finally performing is a plus. L.Murray: L.Murray has the most upside IMO. OAK has typically been able to run the ball, though changing schemes made it fluctuate. I played L.Murray Thursday because of how OAK's run/block performance/tendencies matched up against KC (and for fun--totally worth it). McKinnon McKinnon has the most glittery upside (i.e, the athletic freak thing, and "hey, what if they let him pass too??", though LT( LT2, for old people), played under the older Schotty, not Norv, right? But anyway, a promising defense (pass rush, secondary) is good for a fantasy RB. His advanced metrics are very good. http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/rb Hill Good run game at GL, though more throwing/QB sneaks than I would like. Hill seems like the back that coaches like Lewis want to feed. BJGE? Hill's advanced metrics are also very good. http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/rb Edit: I have McKinnon, Mason, L.Murray, and Sims as options in a 3-keeper (along with D.Murray and JT, but D.Murray would cost a 1st, while the rest are 21st; JT obviously from last year). I've been down this path a lot. Crazy part is, it will be hard to overlook Watt for an 8th because of the point differential.
