Devin Singletery or Justice Hill

[frodo2003]

I have a chance to Draft 1 of these players-Devin Singletary or Justice Hill
Any advice which way to go?

Singletary - has a chance to produce in year one. I dont think either player has tremendous long term value.

[Jcedwards]

I like both, but I'd probably go with Singletary. I actually think they both could have value this year, but I think Singletary has the better shot at becoming the lead back. With Ingram and Edwards there, I'm not sure if Hill will ever become that lead back. But I do really like the offense he landed in and i think it fits him perfectly.

I'll go against the tide here and say Justice Hill who because of the nature of the Ravens offense, the continued growth of Lamar Jackson, the new weapons to stretch out the field and Mark Ingram turning 30 this season (the Saints let him go for a reason - yes Gore and McCoy are elderly too but I just like Hill's talent and situation better), I think while Singletary has the higher year-one floor, Hill has a higher year-one ceiling (look at what Gus Edwards was able to do last season there) and may end up taking the RB1 role away from Ingram at some point. He's the best talent in that backfield. The Ravens are on an upward slope and the Bills are still the Bills.

I kind of disagree with parts of this statement. Especially the The Ravens are on the upward slope and the Bills are still the Bills. There still isn't a proven receiver on this team. A QB that is very much a threat as an RB. There is of course Ingram and Edwards. Singletery has 2 guys collecting social security and a mediocre JAG ahead of him. And I am hearing rumors that McCoy may not even make the team. And that Singletery is taking 1st team reps. I feel the Bills have made more progress forward than you will give them credit for. And i feel that Singletery is a much better talent than Hill. Give me Singletery over Hill this year and for the foreseeable future--talent and situation both favor Singletery--in my opinion--

i feel that Singletery is a much better talent than Hill.

Well anyone who thinks that should definitely go with Singletery then. In the end we all trust our own conclusions.

I see a lot of similarities in the situation for both here. They are on defensive-minded teams, w/ 2nd year QBs and aging RB's ahead of them. The Ravens are perhaps the more run-heavy team with the new system they're running w/ Lamar; but no doubt there will be a solid volume of carries in BUF. I personally like Singletary better, and I think he becomes the RB1 sooner than Hill. But there's a very good argument here that Hill's situation is better long term.

Great post, completely agree.

[esloan35]

I couldn't decide so I have both on two of my teams!!

Singletary

[Flgatorguy87]

I drop Singletary. I believe in Hill's talent more.

Can you not get a pick or trade one so you aren't losing them for nothing?

[trader_nation]

Justice Hill for sure. Singletary is small and slow- he gets run down by college LBs, he's going to get crushed in the nfl. His tape is alarming in-spite of his stats.
