Ill go akers as I like the rams better for success and kerryon is more of a threat to swift than the others to cam. Plus akers doesn't give up, played hard through 3 years of fsu garbage.

Does anything change with the Peterson signing? I know he's a washed up vet but that tells me about the Lion's confidence in him.

Swift long term. He is in a crowded backfield with them signing AP. Akers has the easier road to production this year. Swift I think will have a nice late season run, he's missed most of camp so I'm guessing they will bring him along slowly.

Absolutely nothing. AP will take some early season work from swift, but he'll get there in the end of the season. Swift easily over akers

I perfer Akers over Swift easily
Akers is in a better system, better offense, easiest path to start and he's healthy....Plus when's the last lions back that was relevant?? Doubt Patricia changes that

As bad as their RBs were 2014-16, the redskins used a predominately single RB approach while McVay was OC. He certainly featured Gurley before his arthritis flared up. Akers is built to be a bell cow and he could be used as such, in which case it’s hard to imagine he’s not an RB1

Rams are exposed garbage.

Average QB, horrendous OL

Both coaches will be looking for jobs in a year (Patricia for sure at least)--that's a horrible metric to make a decision off in dynasty
