    I realize there's already a thread about this but that was about a trade and I'd like to get into the debate.

    Suppose you have the ninth pick in your draft and it goes like this:

    L.Tomlinson, S.Jackson, L.Johnson, F.Gore, S.Alexander, J.Addai, W.Parker, P.Manning, R.Johnson, L.Maroney, S.Smith

    Now it's a toss up between Willis McGahee and Travis Henry. Who do you go with? Neither can has proven very much and both are injury prone. But they are both in good situations this year.

    So who is better for fantasy?

    Or would you take someone else in that spot?

    if receptions count for points, I would take Brian Westbrook.

    travis henry is most definitely better for fantasy. McGahee was always overrated. Henry is coming off a big year and is now in denver where they constantly churn out good fantasy running backs.

    I?d go with Henry.

    But if you got concern about both, y not pick Maroney?

    If it?s a PPR league, you could also think about Reggie.

    Just to throw in some more names

    I'd definately go Henry. Anytime he's been given a good chance to play, he's produced very well, just look at the end of last season. Plus I think Jets fans overrate McGahee alot just b/c he always puts a hurtin on us.

    I think Henry is gonna be an absolute beast with his talent in Denver's system.
