Lamar Miller vs. LaMichael James

What are everyone's thoughts? I'm looking at taking one at the #22 pick. Both have crowded backfields. I'm leaning towards Miller.

id take miller because i think he beats out thomas pretty easy to take over the #2 spot, and he fits into the new scheme and i dont think thomas does, the fact that bush has had a problem staying heathy, last yr being the exception, i think miller will have a shot this year to do something, james is at best in a timeshare with hunter and at worse sitting on the bench while hunter gives gore a rest here and there

I voted for Miller because I think he has a clearer path to fantasy relevance than James does at this point. I'm not a believer in Daniel Thomas and think Miller could actually takeover the #2 job by mid-season. And then with Reggie Bush's injury history, James could play quite a bit this season.

Miller...Bush is a Free Agent and Dan Thomas was pretty average last season. Plus, the previous regimne drafted him...that usually doesn't work out to well!!!

James is quite small. Small guys usually can add a lot of value to their teams but aren't good FF choices. Sproles is a great example; he was at most a flex guy until his move to the Saints. Will he repeat last year? And who besides Sproles has been small and put up good numbers?
