Need some Fantasy Football input/advice

Hey all.
Have a problem.

I have
Steven Jackson RB STL
Laurnence Maroney RB NE
Earnest Graham RB TB
Ray Rice RB Bal

We start 2 RBs and a Flex (WR/RB)
I want to start Ray Rice, if McGahee is out....but who do I pull in his place?

[lukehoyt19]

Graham- he is the only unproven.

But I wouldn't start Rice over any of them. Rookie running backs are a coin flip.

Couldn't have said it better...

Sit Rice, Mcgahee will get most of the carries and the Ravens will be behind early and often so the running game will take a back seat.

I disagree, Earnest Graham had slightly more rushing yards than Maroney and 10 TDs vs. Maroney's 6. Graham also had way more receptions and receiving yards than Maroney.

I wouldn't say either is proven, but Graham's stats are better, that's what fantasy is all about.

Graham is also playing New Orleans, defense isn't their strong suit.

Unless you have a better WR, I'd play in this order: Jackson, Graham, Maroney (in the flex). I'd replace Maroney with a better WR if possible. I'm from NE and everything points to a committee up here and not a 80/20 committe. It's going to be more like 40/30/30 committee.

yeah maroney is weak in fantasy cause all the pats do is throw..if rice is starting id start him in place of maroney.

[OnePimpTiger]

I'm with Graham...the Pats have a MUCH stronger passing game than the Bucs. But I would definitely NOT start Rice. The only way he is going to be fantasy starter-worthy is if McGahee is out...and everything I hear is saying he'll be fine and ready to go.
