PLEASE SORRY IF THIS HAVE BEEN POSTED....OK??

:dolphins: :rolleyes:

MATCHUP OF THE WEEK

They were backfieldmates at Auburn, they were both top five picks in the 2005 draft, and they're both starters on playoff-caliber NFL teams. So which one should you pick for your fantasy team?


CADILLAC WILLIAMS, RB - BUCCANEERS vs. RONNIE BROWN, RB - DOLPHINS


Williams: The fifth pick in the '05 draft, Williams averaged 4.1 yards on 290 carries last season as Tampa Bay's primary back, breaking the 100-yard mark six times. At 5'11" and 217 pounds, he's slightly smaller than the 6-foot, 232-pound Brown. History is against him, too: The most rushing TDs scored by a back under Jon Gruden is Tyrone Wheatley's nine in 2000.


Brown: The second pick in the '05 draft, Brown split time with Ricky Williams last year, averaging 4.4 yards on 207 carries with five total TDs. His big game came against Carolina in Week 3 (132 yards), but he had only one other 100-yard game. History is against him: The most rushing TDs scored by a back playing with Daunte Culpepper is Moe Williams's 11 in 2002.



THE VERDICT It's a close call between the two players, who haven't yet reached the NFL's upper echelon. The edge goes to Brown based on increased playing time this season, an upgraded Dolphins offense and the lack of a quality change-of-pace back to spell him. -- David Sabino

OPINIONS????
 
Its going to suck for these guys. They will always be compared to one another. I prefer Ronnie but I am a dolphins homer... I would probably feel the same if we had Williams instead.

I bet if you asked Fin Fans before the draft, nearly 70% of them would have chosen RB. So there is no need to feel like a homer on this one :D
 
Holy crap, this thread again?? Cadillac was the ROY, had more yards, his team had more wins, and he's just better, isn't that enough or do we have to go through this all over again?

How does this suck? They were teammates and are friends. I think they will enjoy being compared to one another. Makes for some friendly rivalry.

Maybe the thread is dead, but I would wager with you that RB is a better back throughout his career. If the Cad was so good why did he drop to 5th pick I think? I suspect that Ronnie landed in the right place at the right time. I may be wrong, and as is usual, if he does , I will hold my hand up. Barring injury though, you are onto a loser my son---may battle commence :lol:
