Standard Scoring: Reggie Bush or Demarco Murray

Postby Jason » Sun Aug 04, 2013 4:16 am

They are close in redraft, and in PPR Bush is a lot higher, but in my standard league I'm trying to decide who I'd rather have (12 teams and 4 keepers, so not a dynasty). I think Murray has more upside because he should be an every down back with goalline carries, but his durability issues definitely knock him down. Bush has some durability issues as well but he's stayed healthy the last 2 years in Miami. Murray is 3 years younger as well. Tough call imo.

I think everyone is projecting Bush to do really well in Detroit but that might not happen. Murray is going to be a stud as long as he is healthy, but that isn't usually very long. I think Murray has more upside, is younger, and the injury risk isn't overwhelming compared to the risk of Bush not fitting in with the new team for some reason.

In standard scoring, Murray put up 11.1 fantasy points per game compared to Bush's 10.7 fantasy points per game. Of course, Murray only played in 10 games. I think they both come with injury risks, but I just don't trust Reggie over the course of an entire season. He was oft-injured in New Orleans or at least hobbled most of the time.
