Fantasy help...

So, I'm getting in one of those fantasy pools at work and where you pick a team at the beginning of the playoffs and it runs through the Super Bowl. PPR scoring and I have to pick either CJ Anderson or Ronnie Hillman. Which one do you guys think will have the better playoffs, fantasy-wise.

It's a tough call because neither one of them is established as the "goal line back" and they split carries pretty much evenly. They both catch balls out of the backfield. They pretty much get played on Kubiak's whim as the game flow dictates. I think Anderson has outplayed Hillman recently, but has battled injury and a little fumblitis. I also think he probably has the higher ceiling. It's like, play it safe and take Hillman or swing for the fences with CJ?

When in doubt, go with the guy who can make something out of nothing - CJ

 

[Orange Crush77]

I concur

 

[Mingo]

I think I would also take CJ

First off, you don't need a whole lot of help in the realm of Fantasy Football, Champ.

Second, I will just make it a little more difficult and go against the grain here. But that's because I'm partial to Hillman as he came out of San Diego State. Go with Hillman (even though I think CJ is the slightly better play, lol). As for fumbles, I think (hope) they both got those out of their systems in the latter part of the season.

Does that help?

I've never given up on Hillman like some have, but CJ can take over a game. He also has better receiving stats than Hillman.

I went with CJ. Thanks, guys.

Hillman is going to get MVP in this one. Book it!

Glad you went with CJ. He would have been my choice as well. I think the coaches have been saving him a bit in the hopes of him getting healthy for the playoffs. He has to stop fumbling but otherwise he is the one guy that can really take over a game.
