Startup: Caleb vs. ARich

[Huggie711]

Who would you rather have in a startup Superflex? Unknown in Caleb or the injury risk with Richardson?
Feel like I’ll be staring down this decision with my 1.09 startup pick (12 team) that is coming up.

Caleb for me

[Tvols]

Caleb and not particularly close

[Mtt33]

Caleb by a good amount

[TheTroll]

Yeah in a start up Caleb.

Caleb ... but I'm worried about AR's injury risk and his overall ability to be that guy who wins enough to keep his job. If I wasn't worried about injuries+ability, I'd probably lean AR.

Not arguing that Caleb is the wrong answer, but I'd be interested to know why folks are making that choice and saying it isn't close. Little analysis if you don't mind?

I’m surprised by the results because the market seems close on them, but personally I think the Richardson hype because he’s a runner is blown way out of proportion. Caleb is a far (very far) better prospect so that’s why I have him easily ahead.

Thanks. I'm curious if the injury concern is driving it or if (like for you) it's that Caleb is a blue chip prospect whereas AR kind of came out of nowhere.

agree there. Caleb is a pedigree. AR is like a dual threat version of Trubisky... should NCAA sample size.

I wasn’t particularly high on AR the prospect, and while he boomed when he played…he barely played. It was something each week until he was gone.

I much prefer Caleb the prospect and feel like it’s a safer profile, despite not having seen him perform on an NFL field yet.

At the investment cost, I’d take my prospect grade of Caleb, and be thankful he’s walking into what looks to be a good situation.

CW's situation is terrific. After FA, I can't see passing on CW with the 1.01 in SF. I want to take MHJR in one league, but I can't justify it.

Pretty easy analysis for me. Caleb is a much better QB. This comes from an Indy fan. AR15 is flashy and has some great raw skills, but he has a LOT of growth to do as a QB and field reader and he has to stay on the field to do that.

better Player, better prospect, better track record. AR has great running skills, passing not so much that i seen and we were worried about Young's ability to stay on the field when it was the big guy who got hurt. that is why i dont think it is close.

I personally would prefer Caleb. I see the talent in Richardson but still not convinced he is gong to meet the expectations for him where I believe that Caleb even with the unknown and flaws will have a better chance of meeting the expectations expected of him.
